I loved that movie so much, perfect kind of new horror movie, artistic and layered, with naturalistic direction. 2015/2016 set a new standard for horror, which we see continued today, but It Follows, The Witch, Green Room were excellent horror movies, of a new era.

I was let down when people whom I know couldn't appreciate it, yet yearn for the "thrills" of the Conjuring variety.

I wouldn't even put this in the category of Horror. Its Horror like The Shining is horror. People seeking a quick thrill are probably not going to get it here.

It’s definitely not for everyone and you have to be in the right state of mind to watch it lol
Thats how most of A24 films are. I think I have caught up on all but 6 of their films but honestly, if I see A24 did it you may as well take my money now. You caught Midsommer yet? :wtflbj:

This is a horror movie. Now whether it scares you or not is different but the intent of this is to scare, thus its a horror. The intent of the shining is to scare, thus its a horror

Green Room felt like a thriller, not a horror to me
