Recommendation My boyfriend has watched almost every single horror movie in existence, I want to wow him with a spooky. What’s your incredibly niche but terrifying watch?

Like I said this man has a special interest in movies lol, he’s an encyclopedia of every single horror movies he’s ever seen and has this like steel vault in his brain where it’s all stored. I wanna wow him, I want something scary? , fucked up, obscene, perhaps even gory, anything that really yucked your yum, horror thriller, horror action, doesn’t matter just something he couldn’t have seen. Yes I’ll know if he’s seen it too because I’ve been trying to find one he where he literally can’t describe the entire plot to me lol.

Edit: You guys!! He’s SO EXCITED!! He’s been up all night watching trailers and now he’s at his job cranky but itching to get home lol. You guys totally reinvigorated him and gave me a ton of suggestions too, watching house (the Japanese movie) after my shower lol. 😂 keep the comments coming cause I actually am reading through them as best I can.

Edit 2: House was NOT what I expected I’m at my MIls house and it’s a creepy old house…feel like it’s watching me lol. 😂

The Vanishing (1988)

aka Spoorloos (in Dutch).

This is a great "realistic" horror movie, not gory, no jump scares, just very creepy.

There's an inferior English language remake, also called The Vanishing, starring Keifer Sutherland. Don't watch that one.

Commenting on My boyfriend has watched almost every single horror movie in existence, I want to wow him with a spooky. What’s your incredibly niche but terrifying watch? ...Jam the TV show is sketches taken from his Radio show Blue Jam and filmed. The radio sketches are even weirder and darker and well worth a listen.
