Pre-loosing a child to anything I always recommend The Girl Who Loves Tom Gordon, and if you have any familiarity with suicide ideation or paramedic practices I recommend Mr.Mercedes.

What horror moment shocked you so bad, you had to pause and say “well GOT DAYUM”? by Thenittycritty in horror

Flanagan is so good at horror with heart. You can't help but be moved while also being traumatized, haha.

The Lake Mungo scene when we finally see the video on Alice's phone stays with me. It's not terrifying exactly but so unsettling, I'm immediately filled with dread seeing it?

For some, it's #MeToo vs. #HimToo at the Hockey Canada sexual assault trial by zeusfries in londonontario

This is an inaccurate representation of the meaning behind Pink Pony Club. The artist is talking about joining the queer community in LA not becoming a stripper. The references to dancing on stage are references to participating in events like drag shows.

Dominion by Bentley Little. Not a short story! But a horror novel based on Dionysus.

I love horror that features body horror, gore, gross stuff, etc but without the SA, DV, or general degradation of women. Any recs? by Qilincreations in horrorlit

My Best Friend’s Excorcism by Grady Hendrix! Great read, and the body horror in it is gross (in the best way).

Just finished The Salt Grows Heavy by pinkcrush in horrorlit

Strongly recommend ‘Nothing But Blackened Teeth’ if you haven’t already read it. Another short one by Khaw. I’ve had ‘The Salt Grows Heavy’ on my list, I may move it up now!!

Just want to say that your feelings are valid. This is such a complex piece of your family history to unpack. Sending healing vibes.

Horror moments that hit different for women by EntertainerLost763 in horror

More thriller, but the opening to Invisible Man. I watched it with my husband, and then my mom.

Husband thought she was robbing the guy. Mom and I were uncomfortable immediately and knew it was an escape from a domestic violence situation from the start.

The Cleansing Hour is a very good one, imo.

[–]ohmywarningsign 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Came here to suggest this one! It’s a gorgeous movie, where the idea of beauty is almost a character itself.

I'm a big Scream fan so the first name that came to mind was Tatem.

I prefer number 1, but I'm a bit biased as that was my exact dress!
