entry__content--singular mt-4"> <div class="grid has-3-columns max-w-xl"> <div class="flow-spacing column-span-2"> <p>Few production companies and studios have enjoyed as outsized an impact on modern horror as A24. Despite the indie label producing and acquiring cinema from across an entire spectrum of genres—as opposed to being a speciality production house or streamer who focuses exclusively on horror—A24 has become synonymous among cinephiles for a certain type of chill: it’s often slow-boiling, frequently ambiguous, and forever a culmination of its director and collaborators’ distinct visions of what qualifies as spooky.</p> <p>Over the little more than a decade A24 has existed, the New York-based studio has been at the forefront of defining tastes in the horror realm, especially with younger moviegoers, and cultivating the image (for better or worse) of the so-called “elevated horror movie.” We might argue a better description would be that they were one of several key players who reminded the industry and audiences that horror movies can be original, innovative, and truly terrifying when you let warped minds run rampant and off formula. Here’s where they’ve taken us over the last 11 years…</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="674" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Justin-Long-in-Tusk.jpg?resize=1024,674" alt="Justin Long in Kevin Smith's Tusk" class="js-lazy wp-image-622418" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-27-tusk-2014">27. Tusk (2014)</h2> <p>We begin our countdown with the rare A24 horror movie that comes not from a new perspective, but an old, one-time favorite. A defining voice in comedy and indie filmmaking during the ‘90s, <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/kevin-smith/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kevin Smith</a> drifted away from studios by the beginning of the 2010s in favor of trying his hand at horror. I wish I could say the results were better than <em><a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/tusk-review/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tusk</a></em>, yet this dispiriting attempt at body horror might be the high-point of his latter day monster movies.</p> <p>Originally constructed as a joke on Smith’s Smodcast podcast, the finished film is every bit as listless and rambling as a weed-fueled diatribe. Not that the movie is lacking in talent. Justin Long makes an appropriately smarmy podcaster named Wallace Bryton who’s travelled to Canada to find oddballs to interview and mock, but gets more than he bargained for when he winds up in the home of Howard Howe (Michael Parks). Ever the scenery-chewer, Parks gives more gravitas to the material than it deserves as a shut-in obsessed with recreating from a human subject the walrus which saved his life one snowy night following a shipwreck. The subsequent makeup effects are grotesque, but the movie stumbles over their reveals like a standup comedian who’s forgotten the punchlines.</p> </div> <div class="entry__sidebar entry__sidebar--hidden-mobile column-span-1 "> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container rail_top ad-dog--sidebar ad-dog--sticky"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-rail_top"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container leaderboard_incontent ad-dog--full"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad – content continues below</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-leaderboard_incontent_1"> </div> </div> <div class="grid has-3-columns max-w-xl"> <div class="flow-spacing column-span-2"> <p>It’s a bizarre and repellent narrative, and can’t even be saved by Johnny Depp’s admittedly amusing French-Canadian accent and Peter Sellers-eque transformation as a late arriving police detective. <em>– David Crow</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="640" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Zazie-Beetz-in-Slice.jpg?resize=1024,640" alt="Zazie Beetz in A24's Slice" class="js-lazy wp-image-622421" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-26-slice-2018">26. Slice (2018)</h2> <p>Austin Vesely’s <em>Slice</em> plays like the pilot of a potential television series. This isn’t because when it’s over you wish there was more, but that the film is so muddled in its narrative threads that you’re sure it was cancelled before more talent could be wasted. It’s a shame because conceptually there is a lot of appeal in <em>Slice</em>’s setup. As a horror-comedy about a small town where ghosts walk among the living as second class citizens, witches are pushy real estate developers, and the local werewolf is a misjudged Chinese food-delivering vegan played by Chance the Rapper, on paper this reads as hilarious.</p> <p>Unfortunately, the actual film is paper thin. Loosely following a series of murders inflicted on a crappy pizza joint’s deliverymen, the film never unties its tangled and knotted threads about ghosts and humans living side by side, or witches manipulating local city politics in a bid for demonic gentrification. And more damning than its Gateway to Hell is that none of this is very funny. At only 83 minutes, <strong><em>Slice</em></strong> feels like an eternity of waiting for a pizza that never arrives. <em>– DC</em></p> <div class="ad-dog__cnx-container"><script id="0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"> cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", playlistId: "08d7db0e-0680-41fa-8df7-5903aa488182" }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); }); </script></div> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="577" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Ilana-Glazer-in-False-Positive.jpg?resize=1024,577" alt="Ilana Glazer in False Positive" class="js-lazy wp-image-790341" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-25-false-positive-2021">25. False Positive (2021)</h2> <p><em>False Positive</em> is a movie perpetually on the verge of making an interesting choice. As a fairly blunt metaphor about the patriarchal pressures applied to motherhood and the birthing experience, the movie riffs on <em>Rosemary’s Baby</em> with a millennial-askew sensibility. That’s likely due to the input of Ilana Glazer, who stars, produces, and co-writes on the film, as well as director John Lee who worked extensively with Glazer on the far sharper satires of <em>Broad City</em>.</p> <p>Despite Glazer’s strong performance, as well as a twinkling malevolence offered by a bearded Pierce Brosnan as her overly friendly gynecologist, <em>False Positive</em> struggles to tonally thread the line between comedy and horror, or punchline and tragedy. The narrative is undercooked, and the third act revelation can somehow be both at once disturbing and anticlimactic. It’s an idea that should’ve been harrowing but winds up strangled in the crib. <em>– DC</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/A24-Horror-Movie-In-Fabric.jpg?resize=1024,576" alt="A24 Horror Movie In Fabric" class="js-lazy wp-image-622422" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-24-in-fabric-2018">24. In Fabric (2018)</h2> <p>When it comes to horror movies, A24 has certainly done its best to (mostly) steer away from the traditional tropes of vampires, zombies, werewolves, and masked killers. As a result, the company has attracted talent like British filmmaker Peter Strickland, who followed up the atmospheric <em>Berberian Sound Studio</em> (2012) and the erotic <em><a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/lff-the-duke-of-burgundy-review/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Duke of Burgundy</a></em> (2014) with this bizarre tale of a haunted dress.</p> </div> <div class="entry__sidebar entry__sidebar--hidden-mobile column-span-1 "> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container rail_inline ad-dog--sidebar ad-dog--sticky"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-rail_inline_1"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container leaderboard_incontent ad-dog--full"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad – content continues below</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-leaderboard_incontent_2"> </div> </div> <div class="grid has-3-columns max-w-xl"> <div class="flow-spacing column-span-2"> <p>The clothing item in question is a red number that passes from one owner to another, leaving a trail of death and destruction in its wake. Fortunately, Strickland plays a lot of this for laughs, smartly realizing that a sentient dress might test the patience of even the most diehard horror fan. The film is a slow burn, but Strickland finds just the right balance of weird humor and surreal horror to wring both laughs and genuinely eerie moments out of his odd premise. <em>– Don Kaye</em></p> <div class="newsletter has-white-color font-sans"> <form class="newsletter__form grid has-2-columns mx-auto max-w-lg" action="https://denofgeek.us14.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=88c0c2ea4015fcf1366e102d5&id=bb43dbbe54" method="post" id="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" name="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" target="_blank" novalidate="" > <div class="newsletter__intro mb-0"> <label class="newsletter__label" for="mce-EMAIL">Join our mailing list</label> <p class="newsletter__desc has-sm-font-size">Get the best of Den of Geek delivered right to your inbox!</p> </div> <div class="newsletter__content flex mb-0"> <input class="newsletter__email" type="email" value="" name="EMAIL" id="mce-EMAIL" placeholder="Your email address" required >  <div style="position: absolute; left: -5000px;" aria-hidden="true"> <input type="text" name="b_88c0c2ea4015fcf1366e102d5_bb43dbbe54" tabindex="-1" value=""> </div> <button class="newsletter__submit has-teal-background-color has-900-color px-1" name="subscribe" id="mc-embedded-subscribe"> <span class="screen-reader-text">Subscribe</span> <svg class="icon" aria-hidden="true" focusable="false" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 32 27"><path d="M31.425 12.066L19.892.532a1.737 1.737 0 00-1.236-.51c-.468 0-.907.181-1.236.51L16.373 1.58c-.33.328-.51.767-.51 1.236 0 .467.18.921.51 1.25l6.728 6.743H1.725c-.963 0-1.725.754-1.725 1.719v1.48c0 .964.762 1.795 1.725 1.795h21.452l-6.804 6.78a1.71 1.71 0 00-.51 1.225c0 .467.181.9.51 1.23l1.047 1.044c.33.329.768.508 1.236.508.468 0 .907-.181 1.236-.51l11.533-11.534c.33-.33.512-.77.51-1.24.001-.47-.18-.91-.51-1.24z"/></svg> </button> </div> </form> </div> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="581" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/The-Creature-in-A24s-The-Monster.jpg?resize=1024,581" alt="The Creature in A24's The Monster" class="js-lazy wp-image-622424" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-23-the-monster-2016">23. The Monster (2016)</h2> <p>Bryan Bertino’s <em>The Monster</em> is a strange one to include on this list, if only because at its heart this is an archetypal creature feature with little more to say than “boo.” Compared to other horror movies released by A24 this can seem slight, but when <em>The Monster</em> works, its boo is occasionally bloodcurdling.</p> <p>Centered on a mother and daughter trapped at night on a country road with an obscured beastie in the woods trying to get into their broken down car, <em>The Monster</em> could’ve been produced as B-schlock in the ‘80s. Why it’s better is twofold: First the film leans into its atmospheric use of shadows and silhouettes by cinematographer Julie Kirkwood—who takes Steven Spielberg’s “less is more” approach in framing the monster—and second, there is the headlong dive into the unpleasant by Zoe Kazan. Playing a young mother who has little interest in her daughter or her well-being, Kazan’s Cathy reveals in one flashback at a time a cruel apathy far more beleaguering than the attacks of the titular monster in the present.</p> <p>Alas the third act turns into pure pulp when the creature comes out of the shadows, and the cast and body count are needlessly increased. Still, the effect of some of the attack scenes, and Kazan’s nuanced exploration of a mother who fails to impress even herself, makes <strong><em>The Monster</em></strong> worthwhile. <em>– DC</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="508" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Jessie-Buckley-in-Men-Review.png?w=1024" alt="Jessie Buckley in Men Review" class="js-lazy wp-image-760907" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-22-men-2022">22. Men (2022)</h2> <p>Writer-director Alex Garland wanted his latest film, <em>Men</em>, to be as much a provocative conversation-starter as it is a singular narrative with a beginning, middle, and end. In fact, the terror at the heart of the film, which is exactly what the title implies, can never end. And along those limited lines, <em>Men</em> is a success in the same way an interesting art installation can succeed at grabbing your attention. But as a film, it still left many of us wanting.</p> <p>Built atop two fantastic performances, with Jessie Buckley as a young and recently widowed woman who is coming to terms with how her marriage ended, and Rory Kinnear as literally every other man in her life, <em>Men</em> invites you to ponder why all men look the same to Harper—or perhaps why they’re all the same to us. A spectacular, if heavy-handed, third act revelation heightens the metaphor to a viscerally primal level, but far too much of <em>Men</em>’s running time is content to bang the same, exhaustive note that is not quite as revelatory as it appears to believe. <em>– DC</em></p> </div> <div class="entry__sidebar entry__sidebar--hidden-mobile column-span-1 "> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container rail_inline ad-dog--sidebar ad-dog--sticky"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-rail_inline_2"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container leaderboard_incontent ad-dog--full"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad – content continues below</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-leaderboard_incontent_3"> </div> </div> <div class="grid has-3-columns max-w-xl"> <div class="flow-spacing column-span-2"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="683" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Mother-in-Hole-in-the-Ground.jpeg?w=1024" alt="Mother in Hole in the Ground" class="js-lazy wp-image-808655" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-21-the-hole-in-the-ground-2019">21.

They call it all style and no substance. Yet we ask you, is there a better description for ‘80s Hollywood than <em>all style</em>? While definitely the weakest of the three <em>X</em>-adjacent films, we must stress that <em>MaXXXine </em>does exactly what it sets out to do by emulating and homaging the excesses and sleaze of ‘80s cinema, both on the A-picture lot of Universal Pictures and with the B-movie seediness of your <em>Maniac</em>s or <em>Sleepaway Camp</em>s.</p> </div> <div class="entry__sidebar entry__sidebar--hidden-mobile column-span-1 "> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container rail_inline ad-dog--sidebar ad-dog--sticky"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-rail_inline_3"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container leaderboard_incontent ad-dog--full"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad – content continues below</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-leaderboard_incontent_4"> </div> </div> <div class="grid has-3-columns max-w-xl"> <div class="flow-spacing column-span-2"> <p>Frankly, the critical rejection of <em>MaXXXine</em> feels a bit in line with the snobbery held against the genre, with certain eras like the <em>Texas Chain Saw Massacre</em>-infused ‘70s aesthetic of <em>X</em>, or the Val Lewton psychological richness drawn on in <em>Pearl</em>, being given more credit than the glory days of the VCR. Be that as it may, <em>MaXXXine</em> recaptures that shallow glory with another towering performance from Goth, and a chipper pacing that feels like a relief after the bleakness of the last two pictures. The ending is pure Bruckheimer and Simpson fairy dust, and probably is why the film is by far the lowest on this list.

Instead the effect it has is on a very small, very frightened group of people–two families that include Joel Edgerton, Christopher Abbott, Riley Keough, and Carmen Ejogo among their dwindling ranks—who are trying their best to stay alive and sane.</p> <p>In that sense, the title of the movie (and, to a degree, the way it was marketed) is somewhat misleading. What comes at night is not some rampaging horde of flesh-eating walking corpses but rather the cold, insidious effect of fear, grief, and distrust. These two invisible threats eat away at what’s left of our civilized selves.

I Saw the TV Glow</strong></h2> <p>We admit that it is somewhat debatable whether this one qualifies as a horror movie in the strictest sense. What Jane Schoenbrun has created in their follow-up to <em>We’re All Going to the World’s Fair </em>is an intensely personal portrait of their own childhood experience of growing up in the ‘90s as a trans person, as well as a universal metaphor for what it’s like to live in an ever-darkening world of self-deception and despair. Nonetheless, it achieves that metaphor through some genuinely unsettling and unforgettable imagery.</p> <p>Tracking a pair of ‘90s kids with a perhaps too-unhealthy fixation on their favorite TV show—think <em>Are You Afraid of the Dark? </em>meets <em>Buffy the Vampire Slayer</em>—<em>I Saw the TV Glow</em> becomes an oppressive experience of what it’s like to live your life vicariously through fiction in order to ignore the real disturbia within and around you. Such is the case of Owen (Justice Smith), a young man who is about to discover his reality is every bit as surreal and twisted as his beloved horror-tinged TV series.

One of those was <em>Enemy</em>, which stars <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/jake-gyllenhaal/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jake Gyllenhaal</a> in a double role as two men who are exactly the same physically but quite different in temperament and personality.</p> <p>Based loosely on the novel <em>The Double</em> by Jose Saramago (who wrote the horrifying novel <em>Blindness</em>), <em>Enemy</em> is less a horror film and more an exercise in neo-noirish surrealism. It’s anchored by Villeneuve’s chilly direction and two excellent performances from Gyllenhaal, who deftly explores the definition of manhood, the male-female dynamic (as he navigates the wife of one man and the girlfriend of the other), and the nature of identity.</p> <p><em>Enemy</em> doesn’t offer easy answers and its shocking ending is very much open to wide interpretation. It’s a challenging early work from a director who’s now moved on to become one of cinema’s most ambitious science fiction auteurs. <em>– DK</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Jenna-Ortega-and-Cast-of-Ti-West-X.jpeg?w=1024" alt="Jenna Ortega and Cast of Ti West X" class="js-lazy wp-image-747972" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-14-x-2022">14. X (2022)</h2> <p>A full decade passed before horror auteur Ti West felt the inspiration to return to his genre of choice on the big screen. Perhaps that’s why in his first collaboration with A24, he wound up making an entire trilogy of nightmares starring Mia Goth. <em>X</em> is the first of the threesome, and perhaps the most immediately provocative. Set during the 1970s in the Texan sticks (by way of New Zealand), this movie unapologetically invites comparisons to the paterfamilias of slasher movies, <em>The Texas Chain Saw Massacre</em><strong><em> </em></strong>(1974).</p> <p>However, <em>X</em> has more on its mind than the splatter or smut implied by the title (though the young people who foolishly leave the safety of debauched civilization here are aspiring pornography filmmakers). With subject matter as lurid and inescapable as a billboard in the San Fernando Valley circa ‘75, <em>X</em> entices viewers to enter what is actually a surprisingly poignant rumination on age, death, and the fleeting heavens of the flesh. West then turns those respites into a hell alongside his muse, Ms. Goth.

Lamb (2021)</h2> <p>The most disturbing thing about Valdimar Jóhannsson’s <em>Lamb</em> is how natural it all feels. After the death of their child, grieving Icelandic farmers Ingvar (Hilmir Snær Guðnason) and Maria (Naomi Rapace) are desperate for salvation, and it comes in an unlikely shape when one of their sheep gives birth to a half-human, half-lamb hybrid. Together, the parents rediscover domestic bliss—as long as the outside world, and even their own judgmental sheep, mind their own business.</p> <p>Of course this happiness cannot last, but the appeal of <em>Lamb</em> is its slow boil descent into the unknown, and its determination to immerse the audience into a false sweetness. Rapace’s transformation from grieving woman to defensive mama bear is also endearing before the movie’s stunning denouement about <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/lamb-ending-explained-noomi-rapace/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the divide between humanity and nature</a>. <em>– DC</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="683" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/The-Blackcoats-Daughter-Worship-Boiler-Room.jpg?w=1024" alt="Kiernan Shipka Worshiping Boiler in The Blackcoat's Daughter" class="js-lazy wp-image-622426" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-12-the-blackcoat-s-daughter-2015">12. The Blackcoat’s Daughter (2015)</h2> <p>As what I would argue is the most underrated horror gem in A24’s catalog, <em>The Blackcoat’s Daughter</em> is a wicked subversion of horror tropes that benefits from the less you know about its story. Suffice to say the film is a slow-burning march toward perdition told in triptych. With three protagonists, first-time writer-director Oz Perkins seamlessly drifts between the perspectives of Kat (Kiernan Shipka), Rose (Lucy Boynton), and Joan (Emma Roberts).</p> <p>It is easy to see how the first two intersect, with Kat and Rose being the only two girls at their Catholic boarding school whose parents haven’t come to pick them up for winter break. How their long weekend connects with Joan’s separate hitchhiking through a snowy stretch of America is not immediately clear, but the bubbling sense of despair in all three narratives is omnipresent, even before Rose gives it shape by mentioning the urban legend of nuns worshiping the Dark One in the boiler room below.</p> <p><em>The Blackcoat’s Daughter</em> trades in horror archetypes, but then digs deeper by revealing untapped, feminine complexities to previously well-worn narratives where young women are merely vessels or victims. Unspooling like a waking nightmare, Perkins’ dreamlike atmosphere is only for the patient, but the climax is so shocking and brazenly subversive that it demands to be reexamined as the full extent of its desolation becomes clear. <em>– DC</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Saint-Maud-Theaters.jpg?w=1024" alt="A24's Saint Maud" class="js-lazy wp-image-596001" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-11-saint-maud-2020">11.

Glass’ debut is beautiful and powerful with a score, visuals, and setting that all contribute to a sense of disquiet that grows to a euphoric/horrific conclusion.

Talk to Me</h2> <p>A true independent sensation which A24 discovered (like the rest of the international film market) at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2023, <em>Talk to Me</em> is skin-crawlingly impressive achievement by Australian brothers Danny Philippou and Michael Philippou. A pair of twin YouTube shock content creators before this feature debut, the Philippous bring a distinctly youthful authenticity and vitality to their version of “kids these days.” Which makes the brutally coldblooded nihilism running through <em>Talk to Me</em>’s veins all the more shocking.</p> <p>In the film, various cliques of teenagers and twentysomethings in the Aussie suburbs have discovered the wildest high yet: inviting spirits (and demons?) to possess their bodies for minutes at a time while holding the severed hand of a deceased medium. It’s a brazenly terrible idea that’s all the more believable when you realize kids like Mia (Sophie Wilde) and Riley (Joe Bird) feel obliged to join in the fun when the iPhones and Instagram filters come out. The consequences of bad decisions are obviously going to be severe, but the relentless cruelty and ingenuity on display in <em>Talk to Me</em> makes for the creepiest possession movie in ages. <em>– DC</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="628" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Mia-Goth-in-Pearl-Movie.jpg?w=1024" alt="Mia Goth in Pearl Movie" class="js-lazy wp-image-789964" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-9-pearl-2022">9. Pearl (2022)</h2> <p>The second entry in Ti West and Mia Goth’s most unlikely of trilogies is also an improvement on its predecessor. By exploring the early 20th century origins of <em>X</em>’s villain, Pearl, West finds opportunity to cultivate a broad, sunshine-drenched fantasia that echoes Technicolor MGM musicals of yore. Those 1930s-1950s influences don’t quite line up with <em>Pearl</em>’s actual setting in 1919, but it <em>feels</em> right.</p> <p>The choice to build an entire movie around Goth’s own distinct blend of peculiar charisma is also a winner. As a young woman so tightly wound that it’s a wonder blood vessels aren’t breaking beneath her cracked smile, Goth’s younger Pearl is a tragic antiheroine. You cannot help but root for her, even as you know it’s only a matter of time before it all goes to rot. But perhaps it’s already been festering since long before the movie begins? <em>Pearl</em>’s emphasis on rich blues and greens, yellows and pinks, belies the suspicion that the reality is actually far worse than what we’re seeing from Pearl’s skewed vantage.

A cacophony of online accusations and recriminations among those who hadn’t even seen the movie followed.</p> <p>It’s hard to think of a better (if unintended) example of <em>Bodies Bodies Bodies</em>’ devastating satire. As much dark comedy/murder mystery whodunit as it is an actual chiller, Halina Rejin’s <em>Bodies Bodies Bodies </em>is not subtle. It’s not wrong either in its portrait of a group of young, exceedingly privileged Gen-Zers whose idea of fun is mixing drinking games with mind fucks during a hurricane. But when those festivities come with an actual body count, and one of these friends winds up with a slit throat, literal knives come out, as do the vacuous ones as trendy online buzzwords are weaponized to increasingly impotent results. <em>Bodies Bodies Bodies</em> is brutally funny.

Accordingly, <em>Midsommar</em> evolved into what could be considered a “difficult second album,” one which managed to exorcise some of his personal demons for both the entertainment and discomfort of an intrigued audience.</p> <p>This ambitious, unsettling masterpiece about one young woman’s struggle to process trauma while she is simultaneously expected to perform the emotional labor of holding together a substandard relationship became a visual flipside to <em>Hereditary</em>’s darkness, creating a bright, horrifying world full of flowers, lush green pastures, and organic pagan rituals that all combine delicately to present us with a piping hot mug of “good for her” energy.</p> <p>Though the argument over whether <strong><em>Hereditary</em></strong> or <strong><em>Midsommar</em></strong> is the superior film will probably never end, this often-hallucinogenic folk tale isn’t just one of A24’s best horror projects, but one of the greatest horror movies of all time, period. <em>– KH</em></p> </div> <div class="entry__sidebar entry__sidebar--hidden-mobile column-span-1 "> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container rail_inline ad-dog--sidebar ad-dog--sticky"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-rail_inline_9"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container leaderboard_incontent ad-dog--full"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad – content continues below</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-leaderboard_incontent_10"> </div> </div> <div class="grid has-3-columns max-w-xl"> <div class="flow-spacing column-span-2"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="682" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/webstory.a24.thelighthouse.jpg?w=1024" alt="Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson in The Lighthouse at night" class="js-lazy wp-image-625018" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-3-the-lighthouse-2019">3. The Lighthouse (2019)</h2> <p>“How long have we been on this rock?” It’s a simple question posed by one lighthouse keeper (or “wicke”) to another in <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/robert-eggers/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Robert Eggers</a>’ <em>The Lighthouse</em>. But as anyone who’s viewed the movie can attest, its answer is nigh unknowable. Eggers’ follow-up to <em>The Witch</em> <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/the-lighthouse-robert-eggers-phallic-the-witch/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">is as phallic as that first movie was feminine</a>, as evidenced by the titular structure that old seaman Thomas Wake (<a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/willem-dafoe/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Willem Dafoe</a>) constantly demands his new second Ephraim (<a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/robert-pattinson/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Robert Pattinson</a>) keep scrubbed clean.</p> <p>Filmed in black and white, and in a 1.19:1 aspect ratio—similar to what Fritz Lang used to shoot Expressionist serial killer movie <em>M</em> (1931)—<em><a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/the-lighthouse-review/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Lighthouse</a></em> is steeped in the old ways of doing things, both as a piece of cinema and as a sea shanty of a tale. As writers, Robert and his brother Max Eggers revel in the nautical jargon of their characters, particularly Dafoe’s Wake, who is like a corncob pipe given legs. Yet Dafoe and Pattinson never descend into caricature; they instead feast on their Sisyphean characters.</p> <p>More esoteric and ambiguous than <em>The Witch</em>, some might defy categorizing <em>The Lighthouse</em> as a full-throated horror. But the picture’s haunting ghost story setup and heightened use of both claustrophobic interiors and barren exteriors beg to differ, as do the film’s <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/the-lighthouse-ending-explained/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">final Lovecraftian overtures toward madness</a>. A masterful exercise in the macabre and hellish, <em>The Lighthouse</em> confirms Eggers as one of the most interesting voices to emerge from his generation. <em>– DC</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Anya-Taylor-Joy-in-The-Witch-Movie.jpeg?resize=1024,576" alt="Anya Taylor-Joy in The Witch Movie" class="js-lazy wp-image-622460" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-2-the-witch-2015">2. The Witch (2015)</h2> <p>To fully appreciate <em>The Witch</em>, it must be made clear that there’s a literal witch in the woods. Writer-director Robert Eggers emphasizes this early on, allowing the audience to glimpse her scraggly and unholy shape as the crone sacrifices a newborn to Satan. This not only signals the movie is playing for keeps, it also removes any sort of psychological ambiguity about what’s going on.</p> <p>Intensely committed to immersing audiences in the daily lives and nocturnal dreads of 17th century Puritans, <em>The Witch</em> is steeped in a deep-seated anxiety for supernatural entities that could poison your crops, or live in every bump heard in the black of night. With a meticulous eye for historical detail, Eggers creates the best cinematic approximation of Calvinists ever put to screen, and in so doing, allows viewers to both live with superstitions of the Dark One taking the shape of animals, and to judge those obsessed with him.</p> <p>For <strong><em><a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/the-witch-review/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Witch</a></em></strong> is also an unnerving character study about a family disintegrating before our eyes, and allowing their biases and patriarchal repressions to lead them toward the damnation. With a captivating ensemble of actors, including a star-making turn by <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/anya-taylor-joy/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Anya Taylor-Joy</a> as Thomasin, the Puritan who is desperate to remain pure, the film basks in its dexterity with early modern English. All of which heightens the tension until a transcendent third act, which can rightly be read as an embrace of despair or liberated ecstasy, <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/the-witch-has-one-of-horrors-greatest-endings/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">depending on who you ask</a>. More than just a great horror movie, <em>The Witch</em> is flatly one of the best American movies produced in this century. <em>– DC</em></p> </div> <div class="entry__sidebar entry__sidebar--hidden-mobile column-span-1 "> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container rail_inline ad-dog--sidebar ad-dog--sticky"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-rail_inline_10"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="ad-dog has-100-background-color mx-auto max-w-xl mt-3 ad ad-container leaderboard_incontent ad-dog--full"><p class="dog-ad__label font-sans font-extrabold has-xs-font-size has-400-color has-text-align-center uppercase mb-1">Ad – content continues below</p>  <div class="ad-display" id="div-gpt-ad-21859463020-leaderboard_incontent_11"> </div> </div> <div class="grid has-3-columns max-w-xl"> <div class="flow-spacing column-span-2"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" data-src="https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Toni-Collette-in-Hereditary.jpg?resize=1024,576" alt="Toni Collette in Hereditary" class="js-lazy wp-image-622461" /></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-1-hereditary-2018">1. Hereditary (2018)</h2> <p>Ari Aster’s directorial debut has become something of a benchmark for horror of a particular kind, whether you want to label it “elevated,” “artsy,” or anything else. Whatever you want to call it, <em><a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/hereditary-review-a-modern-horror-movie-masterpiece/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hereditary</a></em> is an exceptional debut and a crushingly oppressive work about a cursed family laden with grief. </p> <p>A shock scare about 20 minutes in will leave you reeling and everything just gets worse from there, leading to a finale that is so insane and horrific that it almost comes as a relief after the excruciating misery and unease of the rest of the movie.</p> <p><a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/toni-collette/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Toni Collette</a> won multiple awards (though notably she wasn’t Oscar nominated) for her extraordinary performance as Annie, the doomed daughter of the dead matriach whose demise sets in a motion a series of events that are disastrous for her disaffected son (Alex Wolff), stoic husband (Gabriel Byrne), and strange daughter (Milly Shapiro). A story about family, tragedy, and inexorable catastrophe <em>Hereditary</em> is one of the best horror movies of the century so far. <em>– RF</em></p> </div> <div class="entry__sidebar
