Without further ado, I’d like to present five horror flicks I think have gotten overlooked.

6. Society – this 1989 cult horror classic is one I didn’t hear about until a year or two ago. It’s really gross and has live action effects which make it even better. The film is about a secret cult that Bill thinks his family is involved in. This shit is really entertaining and definitely gorey, weird, funny, and over the top.

5. From Beyond – this is a classic Lovecraftian story and features Jeffrey Combs of Re-Animator fame. Definitely worth watching! It’s another weird 80’s horror film with live action gross shit and monsters!

4. Near Dark – so this one is less gross and more of an 80’s classic. It’s a vampire film that has held up well, it’s beautifully shot for a horror film, the score is pretty neat…it’s just a good horror film! Seriously good and has Bill Paxton (RIP).

3. Re-Animator – so this one is becoming more and more popular which is rad! And honestly if you aren’t going to watch the Evil Dead trilogy this Halloween, then watch this. It’s in a similar vein as Evil Dead, but maybe a little less theatre friendly.

2. Dead Alive – also known as “Brain Dead” and Peter Jackson’s non-Hobbit film. This 1992 film is actually really funny and really fucking gross. Let’s just say you won’t want to eat soup after watching this. I believe this film also sets the record for most blood used in a film (you try using a lawnmower as a zombie murder weapon). I love this film and I think every horror enthusiast should watch it. Like forreal.

1.Jacob’s Ladder – honestly this is such an underrated classic. This shit is good. Tim Robbins plays Jacob Singer, a war veteran who is possibly stuck between heaven and hell. This is a rough movie because it’s visceral and dark, but it’s so fucking good!!!
