I am a longtime horror fan who's searching for a good horror movies to watch. A movie like The Exorcist that actually made me feel scared. Something that's inherently scary, and not because of jump scares. I have watched many popular horror movies and movie series like the Anabelle, The Insidious (my favourite), The Conjuring (another favourite), The Babadook and more. I am looking for movies set in 90s, 70s or earlier, that is not talked about much.

Saint Maud, a fanatically zealous Christian girl moves in with an aging ballet dancer to care for her. Religious mania and weird supernatural shit ensue.

The Ritual, 3 friends on a hiking trip become lost in an increasingly creepy and haunted Scandinavian forest.

Suspiria (remake), a German dance academy hides a bloodthirsty coven of witches. Not nearly as visually striking as Argento's 1970s original, but MUCH more coherent as a story.
