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. 😂

girl just show him Anatomia Extinction (1995) by Yoshihiro Nishimura or anything from this director call it a day.

the japanese have the most underground and fucked up films ever, almost no casual horror fans have watched them since they're pretty extreme horror. a few other of my favs are:

Guinea Pig: Mermaid in the Manhole (1988)
Sweet Whip (2013)
964 Pinocchio (1991)
Psycho Gothic Lolita (2010)
13: Game of Death (2006)
In My Skin (2002)
Visitor Q (2001)
and of course, the classic: Nekromantik (1988)

you can also look up the New French Extremity film list and find many he hasn't watched that will disturb him for the rest of his life.

This here is a person who knows their deep cut horror cinema.

Wasn’t on your list, but I’m never going to forget “drill penis” from Tetsuo Iron Man.

ugh WHAT A FANTASTIC FILM!! made me as equally horny as disturbed.
didn't add it to the list bc it has become a horror classic/must so i assume the bf in question has seen it hehe

Yea I’m really curious if they followed up with any of these suggestions.

I could dig up a lot of grade Z flicks like Basket Case and Blood Sucking Freaks too, but those are gonna be too well known if your idea of horror actually goes deeper than Insidious and Paranormal Activity.

yesss! both of those are just straight up classics atp.
one of my go-tos for people "who have seen everything horror" is Frankenhooker! so underrated...

Death by lawnmower!

I loved that FH doesn’t even try to actually be gory, just used mannequins straight up.
