THE EXORCIST III is what you're looking for. Down to the T.

yes it's a movie title

Oh, no. The first Exorcist is a masterpiece, but you specifically said movies that don't really fall within the horror genre. The Exorcist III is what you're describing: creepy atmosphere, unsettling imagery, haunting score, slow burner, etc.

I'll leave you with a track from the OST:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4whA9Yt9_QM&index=1&list=PL0xQ4ztSeadj7JaSCQNX-PIXd0DZknxZg

(the first seconds are from Mike Oldfield's "Tubular Bells")

Also, don't watch the trailers because they show too much! Trust me, you'll LOVE Brad Dourif's performance on this.

>>79076202
That cover make sit look like cookie-cutter horror trash, Anon.

I'll have a look, since this guy reacted so positively:

Thanks for reminding me.

>>79076331
Heard the Neon Demon wasn't very good, but I've been meaning to see it.

Never heard of the other ones, thanks.

>>79076339
Okay, man, I'll give it a go.
I don't ruin it by skipping right ahead to the third movie, right?

>>79076280
Similar tense? I don't know, I've never actually heard that phrase before. You mean like similar pacing?

>>79076256
Sorry, missed your post.
Added to my list - thanks!

It's bloody hand may seem generic, the movie is anything but

>>79076427

>>79076394
No, not at all. The Exorcist III has no connections to the first movie other than a few recurring characters (the protagonist played a secondary role in the first movie). The director, William Peter Blatty, wanted to call the movie "Legion," because it was not a direct sequel to The Exorcist and it completely ignored the events of the second film (a disgusting "movie", by the way, don't even bother). Also, the story is completely unrelated to the first one's.

The Vanishing/Spoorloos (1988)

This is pretty good and atmospheric

>>79076394

Not that guy but Pontypool is fantastic. All the generic horror shit is happening off screen and the film takes place in a radio station reporting on it. Really effective.

Eraserhead
Under the shadow
Elephant man
Perfume
Splice
Hellraiser
Timecrimes

stalker
sauna
session 9

Jacob's Ladder is my favorite horror movie and the closest thing I can think of in terms of atmosphere, while not really horror, is Mulholland Drive. And if you like that, look into other David Lynch movies.

I really liked Lake Mungo, don't look up anything about it because the trailer and google images will spoil some stuff.

Oh, Under the Skin is a weird movie, I didn't really get it but it's definitely creepy and dark.

By the way, the Silent Hill movie was based on a video game that was (atmospherically) inspired by Jacob's Ladder.

I like this too, even though I wouldn't call it slow paced. For some reason I think of it when I think of pontypool. It's kind of an experimental. the movie is broken down into three parts, a different director giving each part a completely different style and vibe.

Assault on Precinct 13. Original, not the remake.
Name of the Rose with ol Sean Connery ish fucken good too.

>>79075775

Possession (1981)

>>79076670
Also, Killing Them Softly.

>>79076502

Mh, doesn't sound like the stuff I'm looking for, but thanks anyway.

>>79076565
I've seen Perfume and Hellraiser, and I don't think they quite fit what I'm trying to describe, but I can see why you'd recommend them.
Will take a look at the others you listed.
Apart from Elephant man. I know how the story goes, and it just sounds like a sad story, not a creepy/mysterious one.

>>79076603
Aren't those more typical screamy horror things?

>>79076640
Sounds good. I enjoy Lynch, though I haven't seen all that much of him yet. I liked Twin Peaks, and that movie which starts with the yellow lines on a dark road swooshing past (can't remember the name - Everything happens at night?).

I never watch trailers before seeing a movie (better to just drop it if it sucks after 10-20 minutes).

Lake Mungo and Under The Skin added. They look promising.

Yeah, got heavy Silent Hill vibes from that subway section in the beginning.

>>79076667
God, that cover looks atrocious.
Will look it up, though.

>>79076670
Loved In The Name of The Rose, and I was considering adding it to my list in the OP, but decided not to because it's not really "spooky" in such a direct way.
Will check out Attack on Precinct 13!

>>79076705
>>79076730

These too, thanks!

Bone Tomahawk yo

Twin Peaks: Fire walk with me

>>79076912
>Aren't those more typical screamy horror things?

Stalker is from Andrei Tarkovsky and is almost 100% atmosphere and mood with next to no action.

Sauna is similar to Stalker in that it's almost all atmosphere but with a few scares and a screamy horror ending I guess.

Session 9 is about a slow build up to the horror in the last 20 minutes or so, I didn't care for the ending myself but the build up to it is incredible.

>>79076970
Added

>>79077004
Have seen it. It was nice enough, but lacked the really nice mood of the series, and it ruined the atmosphere a bit with being so blatant.

>>79077094
>Stalker is from Andrei Tarkovsky and is almost 100% atmosphere and mood with next to no action
Oh, is that the A Roadside Picnic adaptation?
I liked the novel.

Guess I'll give Sauna and Session 9 a chance too, then. Thanks

>>79077162
yeah it's based on roadside picnic, it's a masterwork compared to the other two films but they are also worth watching if you enjoy slow burn psychological stuff

>>79075775
Big fan of dark thrillers myself, checkout horsemen with David quaid. I think there might be one small jump scare but it's a great story.

Also, the Devils advocate, and the 9th gate are amazing imo. Fuck it just start with the 9th gate dude, it's one of my favorite spooky movies to this day and I don't think there are any jump scares.

>>79076640
Oh, also...

I love Alien. Should be obvious, but watch it if you haven't. I like Aliens too, but it's more action-oriented.

Oh, I liked the book The Haunting of Hill House, it was fucking weird, I recommend the book if you like reading but I recommend its adaptation The Haunting as well. It's more about the main character than the house.

>>79075775
Any of Kiyoshi Kurosawa's films.

Only fags from reddit don't like gore and jump scares

I can't believe /tv/ is seriously answering a movie-related question.

Blue Velvet
Prisoners
Enemy
Se7en
Phantom of the Paradise
Requiem for a Dream
Sorcerer
To Live and Die in LA
The Hunger

>>79077286
Have watched Alien, and yeah, I guess it fits the category. Great mood.

Love reading, so The Haunting of Hill House is definitely going on my to-read list. Thanks!

>>79077291
Eh, I don't trust Asians to make movies with subtlety and atmosphere, to be honest.
That's usually more the actors' fault than that of the director, but still.

>>79077318
Jump scares are cheap and uninteresting.
Gore can be good, but is often overdone and ridiculous.

>>79077341
Shit, that's a lot - Thanks!
I ave seen Coraline and Over The Garden Wall, and they were pretty nice.
The rape scene in Perfect Blue gave me shivers. Great movie

>>79077512
Ninth Gate is eh watch Posession instead that movie will really fit the bill you're looking for.

>>79077512
Right on dude, hopefully you enjoy them

>>79077569
Not op but I'll check out possession. Thanks nig

>>79077569
Ninth Gate is great

>>79077714
Posession is greater

>>79075775
The Game

If you're including anime then Angel's Egg fits your dark/atmospheric/creepy criteria.

>some movies that don't really fall under the "horror genre" with jump-scares and shit
OP, these are almost all horror films. Not all horror films rely on jump scares. The good ones create dread and a mood of unease that don't require someone jumping up and going "BOO!" Adding:

The Wicker Man (1973)
The Fly (1986)
It Follows (2014)
The Bad Seed (1956)
The Living and the Dead (2006)
Diabolique (1955)
Dead Ringers (1988)
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956/1978) both great, but the original is the superior film.
Mientras duermas/Sleep Tight
Angel Heart (1987)
Pin (1988)

Is there a worst genre out there than 'psychological horror' ?

It's fucking sad how people praise these garbage movies. Do you really feel special because you hate jump scares ?

All these fucking movies are the same, even fucking worse than the typical horror shit. They are pseudo-dramas with spooky endings and nothing more
>character does mundane shit for two hours
>childish symbolism through the movie
>suddenly something ambiguous or creepy happens at the very end of the movie
>open ending


These movies are only good to be circlejerked about by contrarians and pseudointellectuals fucking sad

Exorcist II is a great movie, what are you talking about? Sure, it's nonsensical, meandering, slow and cringey but it's one of those films that really sticks with you.

Worse. The word is 'worse' as in Is there a 'worse' genre as opposed to "Is psychological horror the 'worst' genre".

OP here,
I just saw The Ninth Gate.

I love gothic imagery, so I enjoyed it, but it was extremely ham-fisted.
5.5/10

Also cringed hard whenever they handled the books. Everyone was supposedly experts on rare books, yet they all handled the rarest and most valuable books in existence as if they were TRYING to damage them. Bending pages, scratching leather, throwing them around, taking them out in the rain and fucking smoking while reading?? That is not okay.
