    Haunter (2013) - Modest but fun shoestring indie with some good ideas & atmosphere and solid performances.

    Started watching Terrifier but had to take a break. Lately I’m finding it more difficult to watch too much cruelty at once. I’ll watch the trilogy because I do love practical effects and the filmmakers accomplish a lot with a smaller budget, but I’ll probably ingest them 20 minutes at a time.

    Want to watch Hatching. Body horror used to skeeve me out but with the shift in my tolerance for slashers, I’m finding it easier to deal with overly stylised genres.

      I agree with you on Terrifier , I personally watched the first movie and was quite shocked. And I’m not going to watch the rest as I don’t want to watch movies that is violence just for the sake of violence.

      Huh interesting - I’ve also developed an aversion to sadism in the last years. Not just with horror but with certain mainstream TV shows as well. Kinda triggering even though my life is very safe, as if the sadism is too real and no longer safely in the realm of fiction.
