    This really depends on what type of horror fan you are. Some people enjoy the “so bad, it’s good” category. Personally, I dislike the really suspenseful and depressing ones that get really high critical ratings because they triggery anxiety or depression, but I’ll laugh through gore and excellent practical effects. I also enjoy ghost stories like The Haunting of Bly Manor.

      Myself I don’t mind some gore but I don’t like anything too explicit. “Those” horror films will never be films I’ll watch, ever. That being said I really, really love legitimately scary movies, of which there are few, and go ga ga over anything that does cosmic horror right (which is almost unheard of but the existence of annihilation makes me hopeful for the future).

        Everyone has their preference. To me the ranking goes;

        • Bly
        • Hill
        • Mass
        • Usher
        • Club (with a bullet. Actively disliked that one)
