it's difficult to recommend a creepy/atmospheric movie that isn't horror

Yesterday's thread:

>>79075775

Also, my list of movies I already have seen (and really enjoyed), which sort of fits the description:

>The VVitch
>Let The Right One In
>Donnie Darko
>Moon
>Nightcrawler
>Jacob's Ladder
>The Thing
>Cabin In The Woods
>X-files
>Stranger Things
>Perfect Blue
>Lost Highway

Try watching David Cronenberg's horror films in general.

Shivers
Dead Ringers
Rabid
Videodrome
The Dead Zone
Are all movies that are worth a watch.

>>79106038
Are you joking?
I'm pretty sure that's just a straight up horror movie?
Never seen it, though.

>>79106079
Yeah, lots of people recommended Cronenberg.
Which one would you start with?

Don't mind it not being "spooky", as long as the atmosphere feels great, by the way.

In The Name of The Rose is one movie I didn't mention, but which I liked very much for similar reasons.

>>79106115
Try Videodrome and The Deadzone first.

If you like those movies most on to the others like Dead Ringers and Shivers.

>>79105933
Lake Mungo's great, but also add Possession (1981) to your list if you haven't.

>>79105933
Heavily recommend Eraserhead, The Vanishing (Spoorloos), Kill-List and ofcourse Mulholand Drive.

Must watch.

Check out from beyond and the people under the stairs.

if you're looking for cosmik spooks:
Picnic at Hanging Rock

the less you know about it going in, the better.

>>79105933
Maybe U-Turn?

>>79106273
Noted! Thanks!

>>79106402
It's one the list - Someone were pretty vocal about how good it is, so I guess I'll bump its priority ranking.

>>79106413
Yup, these seem to match what other Anons recommend too.


I'm thinking I'll start with Mulholand Drive then, and do Possession tomorrow

>>79105933
House of 1000 Corpses has a really interesting creepy atmosphere. May not be what you're looking for, though, as it's probably closer to horror than you'd like.

>>79106578
It's not like there much to get spoiled about it when it comes to the plot.

Unless you read the crazy lost chapters.

>>79106560
>>79106579
Adding them to my list - thanks!

>>79106578
Cosmic horror is nice - added!

>the less you know about it going in, the better
I always try to go in blind, no worries

>>79106605
Lol, dat title. Will add it to the list and maybe check it out later.

Lake Mungo feels more like an exercise than an actual film to be enjoyed. I can appreciate the restraint and integrity they want to bring to the found footage horror genre, but it's just not an interesting watch. At that point you'd be better off watching a 'ghost hunters' show on tv where the people involved at least actually believe it.

>>79106578
This film's atmosphere and visuals were top tier

>>79106700
Too bad Peter Weird never made anything quite like it again.

Eraserbread
I found it supremely creepy the first time I saw it.

Eh, neither were on Popcorntime, so I'll just watch Picnic at Hanging Rock first.

>>79106699
Oh, it's found footage? That doesn't sound too promising...

>>79106806
Yeah, many have mentioned it. I guess I should bump its priority too.

>>79106846
Adding it to the list - thanks!

>>79105933
Angel Heart kind of gave me a Jacob's Ladder vibe for some reason. Obviously very different movies, but kinda scratched the same itch for me

Also, watching the famous sex scene was like:
>Now this I can fap to
>Wait wtf
>I obviously can't fap to this
>YOU HAVE UNLOCKED A NEW FETISH

>>79105933
Parents (1989)

I recently watched this and I'm still squirming. Beautifully made in b&w, a horrific story, and deeply disturbing. Hardly subtle, but more low-key, a slow-burning buildup of harrowing tension. Although it contains a degree of grue, it's decidedly not a gore/slasher film. There's nothing supernatural or even requiring a suspension of disbelief; to the contrary, it's all too based in a potential, if grotesque, reality. My only complaint is the ending; it's as if they ran out of budget, or script. Anyone else seen it?
Truly, the worst monsters are human.

I want lovecraft horror.

Seen in the mouth of madness, event horizon, all that shit.

>>79106902
>Oh, it's found footage? That doesn't sound too promising...

It's faux-documentary/found footage. Plays itself very straight, never gets too horror-moviesque which is both its main strength and weakness.

>>79106699
I'd disagree, though I acknowledge Lake Mungo is not a movie for everyone. You either love it or hate it. Personally I thought it was very interesting because it gives you a lot to think about regarding the purpose of ghosts and how they interact with us. Plus the concept of running into the ghost of your future self along a dark spooky path is brilliantly creepy especially considering it was the only real scare in the movie. That scene made it all worth it imo

>>79106642
>Lol, dat title

Never heard of it? It's by Rob Zombie and surprisingly doesn't suck. The movie Devil's Rejects is a sequel, but it's a different type of movie.

Antichrist

>>79106938
Yes it was a great movie. I had no problem with the ending. But I suppose it would have been better if they used a traditionally creepy end.

>>79106578
The 1975 film or the 2017 miniseries or are they both the same??

>>79108962
1975 film. I've never even heard of the miniseries. Both, I assume, would be based off the same novel though.

>>79105933
I tried watching Jacob's Ladder when I was younger and it freaked me out so much I had to turn it off.

Really need to go back and give it another shot since it's been like 10 years.

I still have no ideal how they going to stretch a 2 hour film into a 6 episode mini series.

Also go with the 1975 film.

Red Desert
A Woman in the Dunes

Not horror but unsettling atmospheres

>>79109109
might work. the film already almost feels like an australian twin peaks

Eureka, the japanese one. Has atmosphere and mystery in spades, but is more focused on a dramatic and introspective tone, less creepy.

Don't bother it's really not that great until the last half hour and even then it's only because of Pacino hamming it up.

Good stuff. I've seen every movie except maybe 5 on that list.
The Blackcoat's Daughter was surprisingly cool and stars two /tv/ favorites. Somewhat overlooked too.

Kill List is a must-see. Lake Mungo creeped me the fuck out.
