Hatching (2022)

FINALLY, a movie worthy of the annual horror movie countdown! Hatching (2022) was brilliant. A strange tale of a young girl desperate to please her image-obsessed mother; Tinja takes pity on an orphaned egg, and hatches it, to disastrous effect. Body/transformation horror at its finest, without relying on CGI. A banger of a debut feature film from Finnish director Hanna Bergholm! Recommended for fans of Raw (2016), When Animals Dream (2014), and Ginger Snaps (2000).

The Company of Wolves (1984)

The Company of Wolves (1984) was a romp! I'm a sucker for practical effects and transformation horror (and Angela Lansbury!), so even though the story was not super inspired, this one was right up my alley. ❤🐺❤

Raw (2016)

YESSSSSS FINALLY, a movie worthy of the Top 100 challenge!!!! Julia Ducournau's Raw (2016) is the best horror movie I have seen in so long. If you liked Ginger Snaps (2000) or Når dyrene drømmer (2014), you're gonna love Raw (French: Grave)! Prepare to say "oh my god f*ck oh no, no don't do it!!!"  cause it gets bloody and graphic fast, but this is transformation horror at its finest. 💯🏆🏆🏆

Ginger Snaps (2001)

Ginger Snaps (2001) was amazing - WOW!! Really powerful stuff. And in the vein of some of my other favorite horror movies, Låt den rätte komma in (2008) and Når dyrene drømmer (2014). Quite possibly inspired the later films?

Vampire's Kiss (1988)

Watched Vampire's Kiss (1988) with Terra tonight - WOW what an awesome movie!! Love the enigma that is Nicolas Cage 😂 Also thank you Terra for introducing me to this gem: https://youtu.be/aeXIoBnu2MU

An American Werewolf in London (1981)

An American Werewolf in London is hands down my favorite horror movie of all time. Everything about it is so rad... The super badass special effects makeup, adorable protagonist, great sense of humor, etc., etc. A gem!
