    Starting with the best: The Substance, I Saw the TV Glow, Gazer (still playing festivals), Late Night with the Devil, Nosferatu, In A Violent Nature, Strange Darling, Longlegs, A Quiet Place: Day One, The First Omen.

    This year was great for showing that less conventional horror films can really make a splash, both in the online conversation and at the box office.

      I think we are on a similar page - I Saw the TV Glow didn't quite make my top ten and I freely admit that is my fault as my expectations were far too high for it going in.

      Gazer may have to wait a while to trickle down. IMDb doesn't currently list it as horror, but it clearly gets the nod from you so I look forward to.finding out.

        My initial experience of I Saw the TV Glow was actually similar to yours: I liked it a good deal on first watch, but as We're All Going to the World's Fair is one of my favorite movies, Schoenbrun's follow up was always going to be at a disadvantage. But I rewatched TV Glow about a month ago, and it ended up my #13 on the year.

        As for Gazer, it's admittedly not primarily a horror film, but has enough terror and surreal imagery and atmosphere that I think it qualifies.

    I think the only horror movie from this year that I watched was Blood and Honey 2.

    I hesitate to call it good, but it was leaps and bounds better than the first one.
