Hey loves,
I’m Sleepy Phoenix, an avid film enthusiast with a particular passion for cinema.

Today, I’d like to present my curated selection of the top five genuinely terrifying horror films.

🍿🎬🎥

#5: Midsommar
A group of friends travels to Sweden to immerse themselves in the cultural heritage of one member. However, their experience spirals into something far beyond rationality. This cult-themed film is visually stunning, yet deeply unsettling.

#4: The Neon Demon
A striking blend of body horror and psychological thriller. The story follows a young woman entering the cutthroat world of modeling, where her peers' obsession with her leads to a chilling climax. The film carries subtle sapphic undertones.

#3: Clinical
A therapist dedicates themselves to guiding patients through trauma—but what happens when the healer is the one in need of help? A gripping exploration of psychological fragility.

#2: Saint Maud
A mesmerizing art-house psychological horror. The narrative delves into religious fanaticism and the extremes of devotion. Not for the faint of heart—are you prepared?

#1: The Exorcism of Karen Walker
The only movie that ever scared me. It starts like “have you visited your psycho sister?” And finishes with a girl being pregnant with a devil. If you’re ready—you should risk it all.
