Can you imagine a world without Stanley Kubrick's The Shining?

Some of the best movies you'll ever see fall into this genre. And at the end of the day, we're the ones really getting our brains fucked. And, really, that's the whole point not only are our characters feeling disconnected from reality, but so, too, are we the viewers. It can be at home, or at a ballet recital, or in the midst of aging-these stories, really can happen to any and everyone. Sometimes, it can be in the backdrop of a criminal investigation, a hunt for a killer or suspect. These stories can happen just about anywhere. But perhaps the most unheralded but deeply-loved subgenre of the horror world are the psychological horrors movies that don't necessarily have a supernatural monster or happening at their core (though sometimes they also do!) but mostly focus on some sort of slow, methodical unraveling of a mind. Others might jump to the slasher pool-big, scary bad guys like Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers picking off unsuspecting victims and scream queens one by one-those are damn awesome too. Some people might hear "horror" and think first about classic monsters of the genre-zombies, Frankenstein's monster, vampires, etc-and that's all good and dandy. ![]()
