Movies I've watched lately | Horror, Psychological Thrillers & Drama |

During March I watched a lot of movies and shows so, I think it's time for another recommendation post. This time I'm only going to focus on movies. Most of them are movies from the 90s, because you know, the nostalgia.

I have some horror, drama and a psychological thriller so, let's get started!

Interview With The Vampire

It took me forever to watch this movie and even tho I am not a Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise fan, I loved it. It's a classic 1994 gothic horror film about a man named Louis who was an 18th-century lord and now a vampire. He starts telling his story to this reporter (I believe), how he was suicidal after his family died, how he bacame a vamp and the things he's gone through throughout his long life. 

The movie is long but it doesn't feel slow. There's something about it that makes it beautiful to watch. I really enjoyed it, I wish I could've watched it sooner!!

I Know What You Did Last Summer

"After a night of revelry, four friends accidentally run over a man and dump his body to conceal their secret, unaware that the following year brings a series of eerie events in their lives."

This one is from 1997 and it's the typical movie where the main characters are stalked by a killer, attempting to kill them one by one. I'm not gonna lie, these movies are predictable most of the time, and they are not my favorite kind of horror movies but, they are still entertaining. I hate it when my favorite characters die tho~ 

Scream

I think this, along with other movies included in this list, are classics. Scream was released back in 1996 and it's a slasher film. 

"When Sidney receives a mysterious phone call and finds that her friends are being killed, she suspects that a serial killer may be on the prowl, who is also linked to her mother's murder."

I don't know if it's just me but, some parts of the movie just made me laugh. It felt more like a horror - comedy film than just a horror one. Not saying that I don't like it or didn't enjoy it tho. I know there are many Scream movies now and honestly, I haven't watched them yet. Maybe I will soon to continue now that I have the information and everything that happened fresh in my mind. Hehe.

I looooved Rose McGowan in this movie.

Scream 2

Sequel of Scream, was released in 1997 and, it still follows Sidney, who is now in college, after surviving everything that happened in the frst movie. The killings start happening again and of course, she's the target.

The Ritual

This one is a British psychological horror film from 2017. I didn't know about it until I learned about the Jotun earlier this year and felt really curious.

"A trip to the Swedish wilderness turns murky as four friends try to mend their strained relationships. However, in the forest, they realise that they are not alone."

I found the movie interesting, not scary. Somehow it reminded me of The Blair Witch Project in a way. Maybe because of the whole forest thing, I don't know.

Delicious

This movie was my mom's recommendation cuz she thought it was vampireish but after watching it, I think it's more like a cannibalish movie. It is a psychological thriller that was released earlier this year. 

"During their vacation in the French countryside, a wealthy German family becomes entangled with a young hotel worker harbouring sinister intentions."

In my opinion, the movie wasn't bad, it was just... weird? Some european movies are like that and I like that, they feel different. I just felt the ending left some questiong floating. Idk. It's worth watching, I just don't consider it a great one or something that I'd watch again.

Cruel Intentions

Lastly we have, Cruel Intentions. Even tho it is a popular movie, it was my first time watching it.

"Sebastian tries to seduce Annette, his headmaster's virgin daughter, to win a bet with his step-sister Kathryn. She wants his costly car while he wants a night with her. But Annette has other plans." 

 I know it's more like a teen drama but, I really liked and enjoyed it. I like Reese Witherspoon, I love Sarah Michelle Gellar and I used to have a big crush on Ryan Phillippe so, yeah. 

And, those are some of the movies I've watched lately. As always, I'm open to recommendations and I'd love to know if you've seen some of these, if you liked them or, if you'd like to watch them. Let me know!!

See you next time~! 💋
