Wish we had more horror movies with George C. Scott. Not to say it’s anything mind blowing but I’ve always enjoyed it.

The Changeling is *so* scary. A 100% must watch every spooky season. It’s everything I want in a horror movie. So atmospheric.

Good, slower paced ghost movie with a relatively crazy ending.

One of Scorsese’s favorite horror films, a little odd how old our protagonist is, but still a lot of fun

This movie blends horror, thriller and mystery really well especially its atmosphere

While some of the production value is a little dated, this is the paranormal film no one expects to like, but find themselves sucked into.

Dark early semi modern horror. Intelligent horror before horror was mainstream. It’s a classic but might not be on every top 10 list

One of my all-time favorite scares, truly original and unpredictable. A must watch.

Just a superior haunted house film with a sterling performance from George C. Scott. U aren’t going to find too many better than this one.

Fucking terrifying and suspenseful. A must watch, especially around late October.
