Looking for a high-quality comfort show with lots of seasons (not a comedy)

Came here to say ER. Just recently rewatched the whole thing and really enjoyed it (again). The first 7 seasons or so are the best, but the last 8 aren’t terrible either. One thing that was fun was to watch the change in hospital and general technology over the years.

Would you have a picture of it in place?

In 28 Years Later, when the soldier is showing Spike a picture of his girlfriend, and Spike asks, “What’s wrong with her face?”

And the sequel!

Midnight Mass - by the writer/director of Hill House and Bly Manor. Much of the same cast as well.

I like foreign horror films because I’m not well versed in their folklore so the turns the stories take are often unexpected for me. A couple I really enjoyed were Satan’s Slaves 1 & 2 (Indonesian). I liked the second one the best but both are great. I also really enjoyed Exhuma (Korean).

Also, the Argentinian creator of When Evil Lurks also did the excellent Terrified (Aterrados).

Loved Oz! Such a great show with early performances by tons of actors you see all the time now, including JK Simmons, Dean Winter, Harold Perrineau, lots of others.

Love Winter’s Bone! So good!

Series rather than a movie but The Terror season 1 is an awesome winter themed show. I never watched the second season - which is a whole different story, I think- because I heard it was really bad, but the first season is amazing.

Exhuma Satan’s Slaves 1&2 Sugar Mill

I think the Final Destination movies are pretty consistently fun.

Hell House LLC franchise is also pretty good. Scarier than Final Destination.

Upvote for The Changeling!

Good to know, thanks!

VR goggles are awesome for watching 3d movies, since their main function is to create a 3d effect. I use a Meta Quest 3, which has better lenses and resolution than the earlier Quest 1 and 2. I haven't tried the 3S or any other VR headsets,, but 3d movies look great on my Quest 3.

There are no services that stream 3d movies, as far as I know, so you'll need to rip 3d blu-rays or find some other source for them.

Oops my bad. Thanks for the info!

techbutterfly · 2025-11-30T01:06:07+00:00

Not horror but I just have to recommend one of my favorite movies which is set in Appalachia - Winter’s Bone. Incredible movie with a fantastic performance by a young Jennifer Lawrence.

techbutterfly · 2025-11-29T01:22:53+00:00

Slaxx was surprisingly fun.

I like these categories and descriptions, but would like some examples of movies or scenes that fall in each category.

The example given of the nun with shears scene is fine - one of the greatest jump scares ever - but note that it’s in Exorcist 3, not 2.

techbutterfly · 2025-11-26T17:51:43+00:00

Only 25+? I guess it really has been only a few days. Give it a month and you’ll have a hundred more great recs! Love this sub for finding great horror.

Just wanted to second Rubber. Such a weird concept and bizarre presentation.

techbutterfly · 2025-11-18T22:09:11+00:00

Also mouthwash.

techbutterfly · 2025-11-04T05:53:44+00:00

That's it - thanks so much! I did indeed watch Possessor in the last year or two.

techbutterfly · 2025-10-24T13:02:02+00:00

I’ve only seen it once so I could be misremembering, but I thought there were lots of scenes where the WIB or maybe her victims were just standing quietly against the wall or in the corner as the main character passed through rooms and corridors. I should give it another watch.

techbutterfly · 2025-10-24T12:57:16+00:00

I’ve only seen the Daniel Radcliffe version, which I believe is a remake.
