I'm doing that spooky movie a day thing challenge for Halloween. However, I didn't put my list together beforehand, and the trick is it has to be ones I haven't seen before. Anybody got any good recs? Preferably obscure but available for streaming? Here's what I've got so far:

American Werewolf in London
C.H.U.D.
the vvitch (just watched this one. It's great!)
The Host
Tales From The Darkside
Interview With a Vampire
Night Breed
Destiny
Thirst
Child's Play


That's where the list ends. I'm still looking but I keep finding things like Rockula. Which, while good in its own way, I'd like to find genuinely good horror movies to watch, not just spend the month watching campy horror movies.

i just saw Jeepers Creepers 2 and it was not good.
Let the Right One In has been on my list forever but I haven't seen it yet, it's supposed to be good.

I liked The Babadook.

I wouldn't consider any of those obscure. LOL. I'm a horror nut and have watched all sorts of fucked up shit. Now I'm not sure about streaming, but here's some stuff.

Martyrs (original is way more fucked up but the remake is actually good)
Inside
Frontier(s)
Spiral (Uzumaki)
Dust Devil (more of a mind trip IMO but a fantastic film)
We Are What We Are
Street Trash
Mum & Dad
Martin
From Beyond
Videodrone
Mutants
The Devil's Backbone

Even those aren't really obscure IMO.

Look up Lucio Fulci, Dario Argento, Mario Bava, Takashi Miike, Fred Vogel (if you really want to get into obscure/disgusting shit)...there's a lot more, but I'm still half asleep. LOL

lol, only one i know on that list is Videodrone. I'm an amateur.

Oh, Parents with Randy Quaid is funny.

I watched Magic the other night, that was pretty good, Anthony Hopkins doing ventriloquism is as creepy as it sounds.

Some other possible ideas off the top of my head, bit of a mix as I don't know what your thang is.

Night of the comet
Return of the living dead
Braindead (Think it's called Dead Alive in the US)
Dead Silence
Night of the creeps
Outpost
Trick 'r Treat
The Beyond
Zombie Flesh Eaters
Cannibal Holocaust
Popcorn
Re-animator
Demons
Invasion of the Body Snatchers
The Midnight Meat Train

I don't know if it really fits the bill but Ichi The Killer is fucking crazy.

Not totally sure it does, but Versus probably does.

I must have missed this, I'm definitely gonna have to find it...

Not necessarily spooky, but it's pretty good.

Yeah, not sure that I'd label it as horror, but definitely watch Versus.

I dunno, does it somehow become horror when stuff gets gory? Never really thought of Miike as a horror director, maybe with the exception of Audition.

Also, Hausu.

God that movie got me the first time I watched it. Absolutely classic.

some good ones in this list.
*rolls up sleeves*
ok a lot have been taken, but here goes.
excuse the dupes.

zombi by lucio fulci
they live
tales from the crypt: demon knight
killer klowns from outer space
the beyond
in the mouth of madness
session 13
the crow
lost highway
altered states

these are the only ones that come to mind at the moment and some aren't really horror but more psychological
I'll dig up some real ones later...

The worst movie I have ever seen:
