Judging by the quality of the movies available from Netflix in 2022, their horror stock is a mix of various genres. As movie genres increasingly compete with each other and especially with big players like Shudder, Netflix can only continue to expand their collections of horror movies, it is increasingly difficult for Netflix to give viewers feeling as real and scared as before. For instance, at various points in the last year, Netflix can boast The Shining, Scream, Jaws, The Silence of the Lambs or Young Frankenstein, along with recent indie greats like The Witch, The Descent or Babadook . All of those movies are now gone — often replaced by low-budget, VOD direct-to-video adaptations with suspiciously similar one-word titles, like Demonic, Desolate, and Incarnate. I can recommend some of the most popular movies currently on Netflix. You may also want to check out the following horror-focused list:

- Year: 2016
- Directed by: Julia Ducournou
- Stars: G clear Marillier, Ella Rumpf, Laurent Lucas
- Rating: CHEAP
- Duration: 99 minutes
If you're someone who prides themselves on having a sense of humour, you can tell your friends that Julia Raw is a "comedy movie" in an attempt to trick them into watching it. That's right, the film's protagonist, naive college student Justine (G clear Marillier), grows older during the run; she's partying, she's coming out of her shell, and she's learning about who she really is as a grown-up. Fear of the female gender, family legacy, celebrity politics, and uncertainty of self Raw The horrors of the exposed and bloody flesh. It's a gorefest that offers no apologies and there's more to people to remember about its effects. —Andy Crump

HIs House (2020)
- Year: 2020
- Directed by: Remi Weekes
- Stars: Wunmi Mosaku, Sope Dirisu, Matt Smith
- Rating: NR
- Duration: 93 minutes
There's nothing scarier from a horror movie than movies that don't mention horror. Of course, movies can frighten audiences in a variety of ways, but the least that a horror movie can cause is psychological obsession. Remi Weekes' His House is hassle-free. The film begins with a tragedy, and within 10 minutes, The Grudge kills easily by leaving ghosts scattered on the floor and on the stairs where his main characters are. We can go through them. Ultimately, it's a film about the inevitable innate grief of immigrant stories, a companion to contemporary independent cinema like Jonas Carpignano's Mediterranea that chronicles the dangers of dangers that immigrants face on the road and at their destination with brutal realism clarity. Weekes is deeply invested in Bol and Rial as people, where they came from, what made them leave, and most of all, what they did to leave. But Weeks is equally invested in making his viewers goosebumps. - Andy Crump
3 The Haunting of Hill House (2018)

The Haunting of Hill House (2018) movie review
Year: 2018
Directed by: Mike Flanagan
Stars: Henry Thomas, Michiel Huisman, Carla Gugino, Elizabeth Reaser, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Kate Siegel, Victoria Pedretti
Length: 10 episodes
The aesthetic of The Haunting of Hill House makes it not only work as a horror drama, but also as an ingenious adaptation of Shirley Jackson's classic novel. The monsters, ghosts, and things that lurked on the wall didn't appear directly, barely visible or lurking in the shadows.
By using twisted ideas — and the time it takes to drive us crazy rather than jumping — The Haunting of Hill House is great at creating troubling scenarios and even better at letting us immerse yourself in them. - Jacob Oller

On Crockett Island of Nightmare Mass, every inhabitant of the island is filled with unhappiness. The recent oil spill has nearly destroyed the fish supply, destroying the island's local fishing economy. Their homes were crumbling and peeling due to the elements coming from the ocean. Most of the inhabitants have left the island for lack of opportunities, leaving behind a few. Only two ferries can take them inland. Hope is in short supply — and a great storm is coming.
"Blessed are those who have not seen and believed." Nightmare Mass offers an opportunity for anyone to doubt Thomas or the true believer. What difference is a miracle from a supernatural event? - Katherine Smith

- Directed by: David Robert Mitchell
- Stars: Maika Monroe, Keir Gilchrist, Daniel Zovatto, Jake Weary, Olivia Luccardi, Lili Sepe
- Rating: CHEAP
- Duration: 100 minutes
The specter of Old Detroit haunts It Follows. In a dilapidated ice cream stand on 12 Mile, in the '60s-style farmhouses of Ferndale or Berkley, in a Parcheesi game played by pale teenagers with rough, pointless looks. — if you've never been, you'll never notice the gray, old nostalgia creeping into every nook and cranny of David Robert Mitchell's horror film.
It Follows is a movie that thrives on the frontier, not so much about the horror unfolding before your eyes, but about the deeper anxiety that awaits at the brink of consciousness — until, a The day is not far away, the movie is there, reminding you that time is limited, and you will never be safe. It Follows is a poignant metaphor for maturity. —Dom Sinacola

Creep movie review (2014)
- Year 2014
- Directed by: Patrick Brice
- Stars: Mark Duplass, Patrick Brice
- Rating: CHEAP
- Duration: 77 minutes
Creep is a somewhat predictable but fun indie thriller that is the directorial debut of Brice, who also released this year's The Overnight. Starring Mark Duplass, it's a mysterious character study by two men - the naive cinematographer and the secretive psychopath, the latter hiring the former to document their lives. in a cabin in the woods. It relies entirely on its performances, which are excellent.
Anyone savvy with the genre will have no doubt about where it's headed, but it's a cleverly crafted ride that's succeeded by the power of the two main characters' fluid synergy that makes me happy. remember the scenes between Domhnall Gleeson and Oscar Isaac in Ex Machina. —Jim Vorel

I'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020) movie review
- Year: 2020
- Directed by: Charlie Kaufman
- Stars: Jessie Buckley, Jesse Plemons, Toni Collette, David Thewlis
- Rating: CHEAP
- Duration: 134 minutes
I'm Thinking of Ending Things is a 2020 American surrealistic psychological thriller film written and directed by Charlie Kaufman. This is a film adaptation of Iain Reid's 2016 novel of the same name. The plot follows a young woman Jessie Buckley traveling with her boyfriend Jesse Plemons to meet his parents Toni Collette and David Thewlis. Throughout the film, the main story is interspersed with footage of a janitor Guy Boyd going to work, with both stories intersecting by the third act.
To say that the film accepts both the beauty and the ugliness of life would be an unfortunate one that the film itself refutes. To say "love conquers all", even more so. But these false truths are present in and about the film's peripheral vision: illusions or ghosts, but welcome to those -Chad Betz

The story, set in Edwardian England, follows an aspiring female author who travels to a secluded Gothic mansion in the hills of England with her new husband and his sister. There, she must solve the mystery behind the ghostly visions haunting her new home.
Peak Crimson is not interested in serving to taste or gaining popularity. It is concerned with keeping the viewer in awe. After all, if the “horror” genre acts as a giant umbrella sheltering every aesthetic and approach, the exercise should always be about putting the audience to bed with the need to turn on. lamp. —Andy Crump
