Like most modern film genres, horror is becoming more and more dominated by a handful of big names that studios know to be marketable. It takes a dedicated viewer to seek out and find the hidden gems, but with near-constant releases on the big and small screen, the good stuff is very much still out there.
Though most of the horror conversation has been devoted to Scream or Texas Chainsaw Massacre, there have been dozens of scary films of this and last year that didn't get their time. Fans looking for a new nightmare to keep themselves on edge, look no further than these unfairly ignored horror films.
5 Best Horror Movie Remakes
The directorial debut of Australian-North Macedonian filmmaker Goran Stolevski can still be found in theaters in some areas, and it is well worth seeking out. Fans of high-minded artsy horror will find their film of the year in You Won't Be Alone. The film follows the visceral and powerful journey of a girl transformed into a feral witch by a malevolent spirit. This new being slowly ventures into the human-occupied village until she takes the life of a local peasant. The witch takes on the skin of her victim and embeds herself into society, slowly learning what it is to be human, by killing and becoming them one by one.
This folklore-tinged horror movie blends the mystical nightmare of The Witch with a strikingly warm perspective on nature and the human condition to create something truly special. There isn't much out there like You Won't Be Alone, and those interested should do everything in their power to hunt it down.
