Any recommendations for other movies like this?


Not necessarily the same topic as Oculus, but ones with the similar spooky, creepy, supernatural tales to them.

There's quite a lot. Silent Hill, The Conjuring, The Exorcist, The Changeling. One you might not have seen is Wind Chill, with Emily Blunt, which I thought was quite good.

Thanks, but I have seen all of the usual suspects like, The Conjuring, The Exorcist, etc. I have even seen Wind Chill. Wind Chill is real good. So yeah, I am interested in more supernatural horror/thriller movies like Oculus, The Pact, Wind Chill, etc.

Check out Ju-on, if you haven't already. The director of Oculus has mentioned it as one of his inspirations.

The conjuring was decent one of the best ive seen.

Try mirrors or insidious

Secret Window and 1408 are horror movies that mess with reality and time in a creepy way like this. Memento was fun if you like regular suspense with some time and reality manipulation. Also, everyone should watch Primer.

If you liked the whole possession aspect more than the surreal reality manipulation, then there's too many to count

reply

Did you just say that Memento was just "regular suspense"? Ehm. Ehm. Memento is cinematic brilliance. It's on par with some Kubrick films. Pure genius. It is, in my opinion, one of the most thrilling suspense/drama/mystery films ever made. No doubt about it.


The only thing to fear is fear itself.

I think he probably meant regular as in not paranormal.

Thanks.

I have seen Secret Window, 1408, Mirrors, and Insidious. All were good.

I will check out Primer.
