1. The Babadook (2014)

Top 60 Greatest Scary Movies list

Director: Jennifer Kent

This is one of the greatest and most terrifying psychological horror films I have ever seen. It is a very hard movie to watch and there were several points throughout it where I wanted to turn the film off. The performance from both of the leads (Essie Davis and Noah Wiseman) were utterly exceptional and some of the most realistic and amazing performances I have seen in a horror movie. The titular Babadook creature is, in my opinion, one of the most chilling and disturbing creatures ever put on film.

54. Lasso (2017)

Director: Evan Cecil

A single-armed ranch hand named Ennis, one of the counselors, the rodeo’s pageant queen, and an androgynous body-building cow person emerge as the film’s heroes. Ennis gets his ass handed to him for a good portion of the image as his second arm is severed, he is impaled, thrown in a ditch, and he is left for dead, just to come roaring back with a vengeance and be slapped down once more. Without giving a damn about how ridiculous his part is, Flanery is just going for it, wiggling around like a limbless worm as he fights to survive and witness one last sunset. In a sort of participation award way, it is admirable.
