Horror Express (1972)

 

A 70s B film that combines train adventure with horror with many things thrown in. Has some good actors in it such as Christopher Lee, Peter Cushing and Telly Savalas ... A good time pass if expectations are reasonable! ...  Try to watch the remastered print done by Arrow

A good animated horror series on Netflix is Castlevania. I don't like the 3rd season much, but the 1st 2 seasons are a self contained story-arch onto themselves, and can easily be finished in a day.

The Babadook is also a popular one.

Paranoiac (1963) 

 

A unique Hammer production in the sense that it is focused on suspense (so without any unnecessary goofy scenes ) and shot in B&W. Almost a blind  buy (watched its trailer) on iTunes as I saw Oliver Reed with a knife on its poster and driving a Jaguar E Type in its trailer. Reed is over the top but still fun to watch, others in the cast are good too. The film is based on Josephine Tey's book - Brat Farrar.
