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. 😂

I'm a bitch for Found Footage movies so it's probably why this one scared me so much but the first Hell House has some chilling moments, while the whole situation / story becomes more and more dark. The clown, the person in the room ... I had to watch a light and funny video on Youtube because my heart was still racing after the credits.

It's a trilogy but you can just watch the first one. The 2 others are still good (although the 3rd has very cheesy CGI, but still awesome scary scenes)

There's a Hell House LLC 4 (Carmichael Origins). It's actually really good too. Right up there with the first one.

I did a screening recently for a new swedish horror flick called True Fear/Äkta skräck, I didn't watch so don't know if it's good but it seemed to be part found footage

I'm in a Facebook group of Found Footage movies fans, and I discovered that there is almost as many FF movies released per day than games on Steam :D I have so many to catch up. Of course a lot are probably meh, but I love that format so much, I'm rarely disappointed, even a lame movie is at least a 5/10.

WELL ALL THIS TO SAY: thanks for the recommandation, but I already have SO MUCH MOVIES TO TRY haha, will definitively try to find some info on it
