One film franchise that needs to come back as laid to rest😂 I don't care what anyone says😂 Chrome skull is the man😂 rest in peace Robert Hall🎉🎉🎉
Cool new list
Growing up in the north of Ireland in 1970swas a real horror story
As someone who loves both horror & all things Irish, I'm surprised to have only seen about half the movies on this list. Thank you for the recommendations!
Yurt!
I'd love to see a film about Banshees. Btw I think Dead Meat is a pretty good film. Assuming I've remembered the name correctly.
So we now know Ireland have the worst horror films in the world
I absolutely love The Hallow. I first came across this hugely underrated horror flick during the height of the Game of Thrones phenomenon when alot of the actors who starred in GofTs began appearing in several other projects outside of Westeros as was the case with The Hallow which starred Joseph Mawle (Benjen Stark) & Michael McElhatton (Roose Bolton; also portrays Tam Al-Thor in Amazon's The Wheel of Time adaptation). A hugely underrated underappreciated supernatural horror film that deserves more recognition.
The Hallow is one of my favorite. Great movie. Awesome creatures
No mention of Oddity or Caveat. I don't like to be that guy who only comments when he's got a complaint to make, but… seriously?
WhatCulture Horror constantly serve up surprising things for me to explore. The canker man, The Obsidian butterfly, The Void.❤
In Fear!
The Hole in the ground Is a great horror film.
So glad someone is shining a light on Irish horror. I've found quite a few gems in my viewings in the past few years. There needs to be an active community of folks in the fandom to champion these films. I enjoy the mystique the chill vibes and the distinct atmosphere of these films that make them distinctly Irish, if this makes sense. Tubi and Shudder are good places to find many of these films for streaming. Hoping there's a part 2! For those clueless naysayers, just because a film doesn't have a hollyweird or even an independent budget on the high end doesn't mean it isn't good. I think some of you guys know this, right?
The Hallow is great. If you want to see a couple of idiots ignore everyone's warnings and do every stupid thing you can imagine finally getting their comeuppance, this is the movie for you. The scene of Dad exploring the forest with his kid strapped to his back is unintentionally hilarious. Make it a drinking game and take a hit every time someone does something dumb. I can't recommend this movie enough.
Can you do a list of best horror movies /horror movies you haven’t seen streaming this month each month? Help people be able to watch new recommend horrors.
You forgot tin can man
The Lodgers is really good. I love a horror that creeps under your skin instead of relying on jump scares.
😄Adding these to my list, as @DocHayes420 said, "As someone who loves both horror & all things Irish, …" and going to add "Grabbers 2012" a monster horror comedy film, there are some truly frightening scenes in the movie but for actual Irish horror, I'm going back to this excellent video.💝
Irish horror is great, they have so much to draw on, be it mythology or the troubles (71 and Black 47 could be seen as horror). Many of the films are co-productions with Scandinavian or Flemish companies. On a more serious note the Magdalene (pronounced maudlin) laundries only closed in 1996. At the end the women were packaging Hasbro games such as Mouse Trap and Kerplunk. Whilst the Catholic Church is vilified for this in England my mother worked in what was known as as a Psycho Geriatric Hospital under the NHS. This was an ex-Workhouse and many of the patients had been there since they were born to unmarried mothers.
Anyway , great list (Grabbers is amazing) but where was Stitches and Raw Head Rex.
Shrooms is also a fun Irish horror movie, hehe
Grabbers is really fun I definitely recommend it..
Wow, Ellie – The Lighter!✨😍 Likes from all accounts!👍👍👍❤
Poor Bring Out The Fear, In A Stranger's House, and Caveat. Not a look in!
Great films 👏 good video
The Irish make awesome horror movies. 👍
"With few jumpscares to speak of…" — That's fine. You do NOT need jumpscares in a horror movie to have an excellent horror movie. Too many times writers and directors think that those of us who love horror only like it due to the jumpscares. However, there is such a thing as too many and…then there's the way too obvious "waiting for a jumpscare" when the director lingers on something a little too long. They're no longer as effective as they should be. Too many and your movie is predictable. None and some "horror" fans (ie not true horror fans) will wonder where the scares are. I'm actually curious how writers are going to start using AI to "help" write their stories when we all know that AI is just reguritating the stories that its been absorbing. If we think movies are feeling like they're not "fresh" now, imagine how that feeling is going to multiply as more and more writers use AI or as directors & producers opt to have ONLY AI write a script.
Just started this vid, don't know if Grabbers! Is going to be on this list or if it is even considered and Irish horror film. It IS filmed in Ireland and is honestly probably more of a comedy than a horror but, it is a horror comedy and it is pure gold. If you haven't seen it, I wholeheartedly endorse the movie.
Thank you for the list. Would love to suggest Oddity, to anybody who happens to read as far as this comment.
Irish film makers haven't been as prolific?
Hole in the ground, all you need is death, oddity, caveat, you're not my mom, the hallow, boys from county hell, the devil's doorway, and that's just off the top of my head
The Magdalene laundries were present throughout Ireland, not just in Northern Ireland
Why on Earth A DARK SONG is not on that list? The best Irish horror ever made
Wake wood leaves an impression…..
