Two foreign ARTSTY horror films:

Posession 1981 (French/German) there will never be another film like it.

Suspiria 1977 (Italian) another one-of-a-kind-film. Thees both have their flaws, but to me it only adds character. Their motifs are comletely realized and both had lasting effects on the horror genre.

I just watched Possession for the first time recently and was blown away. No idea how I never heard of it before. It just sucks you in.

12 Monkeys vs La Jetée springs to mind, though it’s pretty loose

Even though the Scarface remake with Al Pacino is an excellent movie, I personally find the rawness of the black-&-white original with Paul Muni more intriguing.

There’s Sabrina (1954) and Sabrina (1995), if you like a suggestion other than from supernatural/horror/sci-fi genres.

This isn’t quite what you asked, but The Mist has a black and white version that is apparently very good.

Mad Max: Fury Road also fits this. not quite what was asked, but a good ride!

also not quite the same thing, but Jodorowsky’s Dune is a doco about a version of the Dune movie that never got made. also the older Dune movie by David Lynch is not good, but a ride none the less!

It’s the best way to watch it. I imported the Canadian DVD back in the day to get the B&W version.

The Mummy, Frankenstein, and Dracula all had remakes in the 90s that were based off of earlier black and white films.

The Ritual - psuedo-Lovecraftian horror with no explanation No One Gets Out Alive - more psuedo-Lovecraftian horror with no explanation Mama - Guillermo del Toro is awesome NightBooks - Sam Raimi Hansel & Gretel tale that’s tame enough for the kids but spooky enough for the adults

Those are some that I hadn’t seen before this season. I pretty much watch horror from mid-September on, so there’s a bunch of the old favorites that got watched, but these surprised me.

Redshlrt,

We watched The Ritual last year and absolutely loved it.
