shareThese films explore the horrors that exist within our own bodies and minds–our deepest fears, our worst case scenarios, and the possibility that what we believe is true may not actually be. Journey with us from occult scream queens to anthropomorphic animations, from under-your-skin jump scares to every parent’s worst nightmare, from surrealist fantasies to the unshakeable feeling that you are being watched. Every film in this block is full of surprises and will keep you second-guessing what you’ve seen and experienced long after the credits roll.
