One or two mentioned I'm not overly keen on. Some I've never heard off or seen so can't give any comment but will look into some of these .

I'm surprised that nobody mentioned Kill List at all

Fair enough, just was quite surprised really.

I'm curious it has to be said, but I'm waiting until it's on Netflix/Prime because I'm not buying the damn thing

I was never a fan, but I did have a Grolsch bottle top on my shoes in the late 80's

Then there's, off the top of my head

The Awakening (2011),
The Seasoning House
(2012)
Inbred (2011)
Howl (2015)
A Lonely Place to Die (2011)
Berberian Sound Studio (2012)
Penetration Angst (2003)
The Dead (2011)
Nina Forever (2015)
Freehold (2017)
Outcast (2009)
Devil's Playground (2009)
The Devil's Business (2010)
Isolation (2005)
Thanks for that Dem. There's a few there I've seen. The Awakening for instance is brilliant but it doesn't pop into my head as recent being it's 8 years old. Howl is also great. Autopsy of Jane Doe is really good but I'm particularly surprised that's British. One of those you've mentioned is from 2003. When i think recent Brit horror films I tend to think the past 2 or 3 years maybe

A Quiet Place 2018.

Surviving a apocalyptic war against monsters that are blind but have sensitive hearing a family try to find shelter without making any noise and speak only using sign language.

This movie I wasn't going to watch as it didn't seem to appear to be brilliant, a workmate told me it was scary as f@#k (anything scares him) and my dad told me it's the best.

There is some blink and miss info on how the creatures arrived via newspaper articles shown in some scenes, very little dialogue is said to the nature of the movie, the sign language is shown in subtitle which if you watch you need no distractions. John Krasinski does a good job of starring and directing this as the father and Emily Blunt as the mother. The creatures themselves are brilliantly designed and creepy added in with some tense moments. IMO this wasn't the greatest horror, ok it's new but there was a few plot holes and why was there a old guy in the Woods? Maybe the planned 2020 sequel will give out more info on the back story of the creatures. 5-6 out of 10.

You're welcome, J.

Have you actually seen Penetration Angst or the 2005 one Isolation?
