Resident Evil 4 (2023)
Games | Action, Horror
The legendary campaign, interesting puzzles, iconic characters, tense moments - so many things come together - in excellent detail!
Horror
Cloverfield collection
Movies | Thriller, Horror, Action
From chaotic shaky-cam monster dread to an intensely tense bunker thriller, both kept me hooked! The sudden shifts might throw you, but the payoffs deliver. Watch with good headphones in a dark room!
The Witch (2016)
Movies | Horror
Excellent acting by everyone and staging that builds mounting dread. Get good headphones and watch on a big screen if you can, because you will need subtitles in some places.
Alien: Earth (2025-running)
TV Shows | Horror, Thriller
A surprise in the good way! The first season is exceptionally well-made, has monsters in more forms and is packed with a tense, claustrophobic atmosphere! Bringing new dread to Earth was built up remarkably well, with really good visual effects. Acting is great too!
Kingdom (2019-running)
TV Shows | Action, Horror, Thriller
Back when Netflix used to be good. This is an excellent mix of politics and relentless zombie dread! The gorgeous cinematography, costume details and pacing pull you right in, even when the court plots get dense. Watch it with the original Korean audio and subtitles on a big good screen! Worth it!
28 Days/Weeks/Years Later collection
Movies | Horror, Action, Thriller
From the frantic runs of the original, to the panic-filled city dash of the sequel, to the slow sudden horror of the latest, to that stunning satanic dance of Ralph Fiennes. I enjoyed each movie’s distinct style and setting. Can’t wait for Cillian Murphy’s return!
Alien - Romulus (2024)
Movies | Sci-Fi, Action, Horror
Finally, a good movie in the Alien franchise! I found this to be a really good surprise that brings and builds the dread and horror in some amazing moments, but the main small weakness is the lost opportunity by messing up few key moments by characters.
Alien: Covenant (2017)
Movies | Horror, Sci-Fi
Like Prometheus, which was released 5 years earlier, Covenant also feels CGI-heavy and rushed but with characters that are less memorable. Some great moments but it feels like a sequel to a sequel in some strange way.
Alien: Prometheus (2012)
Movies | Horror, Sci-Fi
Some really great moments, especially near the end, and strong acting by the lead actress. A good movie in the Alien franchise. But it felt more CGI-heavy and rushed/choppy sometimes, losing the charm or scar of the Alien universe.
Aliens (1986)
Movies | Sci-Fi, Horror, Action
No more barely-seen horror of Alien. James Cameron’s sequel brings a relentless army that drains resolve and weapons as the odds rise. Tense, tense, tense! One of the best sci-fi action horror movies!
Alien (1979)
Movies | Sci-Fi, Horror
A perfect space horror movie about something you don’t even see often or clearly. Some may find it slow at first. But it does not let go for even a moment once it hooks you.
Prey (2022)
Movies | Action, Horror
Set in 1719 with an excellent heroine in the form of Naru, a Comanche hunter, who is looking to prove herself. Built around patience instead of firepower. Brings back the magic of the original 1987 movie but in its own way!
