Lately, like most of you, I've been involved in P.T's gaming. it made me want to watch movies with this kind of atmosphere, movies that could kinda work in the SH lore, or at least, movies that remind me of SH.
So I wanted to talk about those movies with you.
Absentia, by Mike Flanagan. The core of the story is the relationship between two estranged sisters, trying to connect, one of them planning to declare her 7 years missing husband dead. It was a low budget movie, and it was trying, not to scare you, but to create an atmosphere of dread. It was more preoccupied with its atmosphere and its characters than with scares, even though, the whole concept is horrifying. I higly recommen this one.
Rigor Mortis. It's a movie from hong kong, using chinese folklore, and more precisely, using the myth of the hoping vampire. It's better to know movies like Mr Vampire before watching this one. That said, visually it's stunning, and some of the visuals really remind me of Silent Hill. The story is also quite interetsing, even though some people didn't like the ending.
