Alien/Aliens is a given for most people. I have been watching Event Horizon during the spooky season for years. What are some of your favorite books and movies with a horror/psychological thriller lean?

Avalon love this movie! I havent seen it in years but still it creeps up and reminds me how good it was. One of those shows that seems to pull you in and suddenly the hairs on the back of your neck stand and wow!

Demon Seed. I like the book mostly, but even the movie has such an outlandish premise that makes for a great watch, especially for first-timers.

There are some generally great small(!) / low budget movies, especially sci-fi. Here's one example, this one's basically zero budget but it's a great one (12min): https://tube.instellate.xyz/watch?v=GhDlV9PDw3Y
