LISTEN
It’s that time of the year, lots of scary movies at the theater, on TV & streaming services. People know all about Freddy, Jason and Michael Myers. WDCB’s Gary Zidek and Daily Herald multi-platform editor and Widescreen columnist Sean Stangland sat down to discuss some of their favorite lesser-known scary movies … in a segment titled HORROR HIDDEN GEMS.
While Sean’s favorite horror film of all-time is POLTERGEIST, his list of hidden gems includes GINGER SNAPS. THE NEON DEMON, & MAY.
Teen werewolf thriller with an indie edge
Things get weird in Nicolas Winding Refn’s (the guy who made DRIVE) 2016 release
A young woman with unresolved issues gets crafty.
Gary’s list of horror hidden gems includes DEADLY FRIEND, MY LITTLE EYE and THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL.
A lesser known Wes Craven film, DEADLY FRIEND is good for more than just that one GIF,
Think fast.
Voyeuristic style adds tension to a decent, if familiar story. Oh, and Bradley Cooper makes an appearance.
Feels like an undiscovered gem from the 80’s, but it was made in 2009. Great direction from Ti West.
