About us

🤗 Thanks for joining our little instance here, located in Oregon. The idea is to have a fast, stable instance and allow users to subscribe to whatever content they want from here.

😎 We dont block any other instances. We will keep it that way unless it becomes a moderation problem.

🤠 We will be around for a very long time, so you dont have to worry about us shutting down the instance anytime soon. We like performance and stability in our servers, and will upgrade the instance when its needed.

🥹 Make sure to join a lot of remote communities to get a good feed going. How to do that is explained here.

Throughout decades of cinema, horror has changed so much that there's no question it's one of the genres that has been reinvented the most. Audiences have evolved, and with them, the ways they can be scared. Horror has also had to adapt itself to inevitable cultural shifts.

Yes, horror is universal. But some do it better than others. While the Japanese and the Koreans have proven they can master the art of the scare, American filmmakers have cleverly found a way to adopt those resources. However, the British have also found a way into the conversation of terrifying films based on classic tropes. These are the underrated British horror films that'll give you a scare this Halloween season. That is if you dare to watch them...

  • Kill List (2011)
  • The Ritual (2017)
  • The Borderlands (2013)
  • Host (2020)
  • A Dark Song (2016)
  • The Innocents (1961)
  • The Woman in Black (2012)
  • Saint Maud (2019)
  • Ghostwatch (1992)
  • Repulsion (1965)
