"Loved this countdown, guys. I was stoked to see 'The House That Dripped Blood' (1971) from Amicus make the cut. Peter Cushing and Ingrid Pitt deliver in the anthology series, which is often overlooked in favor of more prominent British horror films of the era. Also, a mention of Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989) would have been nice, as it's definitely one of the most unsettling films on this list. That scene where the metal gets inside the character's muscles still haunts me. Overall, great job on including some lesser-known gems in your countdown."

@marimota5083"Love the countdown format, but I wish they'd dig deeper into some of the truly obscure gems. Idris Zuber, for example, is often overlooked in Turkish horror, but his 1978 film 'Kızgın Delikanlılar' is a fascinating blend of folk horror and psychological terror. Similarly, how about some love for the Indian B-movies of the 70s and 80s, like 'Do Ladke Dono Kadhe' or 'Pyaar Ki Kahaani'? They're not as polished as Western horror fare, but the raw energy and atmosphere they convey is often unmatched. It's great to see some lesser-known horror films getting mentioned, but there's so much more to explore in the world of obscure horror."
@OddlyFamiliarNostalgiaDoes anyone else know about a different film called Creep? Set in the London underground
@paulford4407How is Sinister underrated?!
@paulford4407I love The Empty Man it is a great movie and freaky good if you are like me and try to really get into freaky movies to try and get freaked out
@WilliamJohnson-n4uBehind the Mask the Rise of Leslie Vernon
@EDsavantI really want to watch your video recommendations but won’t be watching them when they have spoilers. Maybe do some SPOILER-FREE horror lists? It’s very doable . . . and I’d love to watch more of your lists but nope. Not gonna watch a SPOILER list gaaaaahhhh
@ArtWithTeresaIn drag me to hell that gypsy woman was petty as hell
@anthonyherring5329RIP, Mr Sam Neill
@crowhurdThe Ritual (2017) and The Endless (2017) were pretty good.

@o.g.2836I've seen some.
@josh72456The Changeling!! Haunting and atmospheric!
@klwm6432strange darling is a masterpiece? lol
@AndreNikle"I completely agree with including 'The Hills Run Red' in the top 50 most underrated horror movies. I've always said it's one of the best 'lost' slasher films out there, and it's amazing to see it getting the recognition it deserves. I've also got a soft spot for 'The Fun House', a 1969 horror film that predates 'Halloween' by two years. It's a lesser-known film, but one that's definitely worth checking out if you're a slasher fan. I think the inclusion of these kinds of overlooked classics is what makes this countdown so compelling. Great job on the list, keep it up!"
@OddlyFamiliarNostalgiaNo final prayer is diabolical
@PeterNotSimonI see the Crazies
@JamesJ422The Voices is so good!!! Oh, and Bone Tomahawk as well!
@jakes3059Eli Roth’s Cabin Fever with Rider Strong. Pancakes! Pancakes!
@annatomasik6927Some of these entries ("The Crazies" remake, "The Empty Man," "Hush," "Tusk") are just plain crap.
@DarkmanPoeMother Joan of the Angels
@paulvirva970Yep, just follow the 3 rules, and my little buddy Sam will not be coming for you.
@JonnySuite13The voices had me DYING of laughter
@robertmartin6746😂 bubba hotep movie cracked me up
Walrus is a crazy movie, friend at work let me borrow it that likes horror movies
The crazies is one of my favorite movies of that kind
30 Days Of Night And Pandorum And Hell House LLC And A Perfect Getaway And Grudge 1 And 2 And Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) And Friday The 13th (2009) And Grave Encounters 1 And 2 And Storm Of The Century And Needful Things And The Night House And Malignant And Last Night In Soho And Censor And The Dark And Wicked And The Last Exorcism And The Cave And The Ruins And Man Of Steel And 28 Weeks Later And The Strangers: Prey At Night And Halloween (2007) And Scream 3 And Wes Craven's New Nightmare And 47 Meters Down And Bodies Bodies Bodies Should Be On The List
@JohnSampyI really loved The Manor, with Barbara Hershey, and She Will, with Alice Krige. Awesome films.
@DeidreL9"The Brain That Wouldn't Die". "The Other". "Eyes Without a Face". "Chain Reaction". "Tourist Trap". 'Dead Snow". "Bloodlust". "Let Us Prey". Some of my favorites.
@jamieewinnersA Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, Wes Craven's New Nightmare
@cajayson8301Apparently, all of my favorite movies are underrated lmao
@MitchFaceThe Cabin in the Woods
@seanpatrickcain2I’m glad Unfriended isn’t on the list because it’s too cringy for edgy obnoxious kids who refuse to admit their mistakes.
@cameronjr8Dawn of The Dead (2004)
@sheemalmightyAs if being bombed by Saddam Hussein wasn't bad enough, a Jinn had to be added into the mix!
@ElizabethMcCormick-s2nstrange darling is so good
@anzioccWhere is ‘The Atticus Institute’? Film is amazing!
@Mac_Kymera1The Cursed (2021). I stumbled upon it by accident. It's a werewolf movie where the werewolf visually looks like a genetic mutation or deformity.
@randomxxjojoI vote for Blood Feast (1963), Blue Sunshine(1977), Asylum (1972) & Happy Birthday To Me (1981).
@DaddyOfTheSugarVarietyThe Gallows is so underrated!
@bananamoon24What movie is the thumbnail?
@tupacshakur4446I like the thumbnail. 🎉
