10 Horror Movies You MUST Watch On The Big Screen

10. As Above, So Below (2014)

The Paris catacombs are so much more than the health and safety-compliant section designed for tour groups and holidaymakers. In fact, there is a far larger network of tunnels under the city, many of which are dangerous, inaccessible, and home to who only knows what. 

And these catacombs are where we find archaeologist Scarlett Marlowe (Perdita Weeks) in As Above, So Below, on her hunt for the, well... the philosopher's stone. Far more than just a Harry Potter title, the stone is a legendary substance that has entranced a certain subsection of explorers in a similar way to the Holy Grail. But rather than a National Treasure-esque romp, Scarlett and her companions find themselves descending through something akin to Dante's nine circles of Hell. 

While found footage in general seems a TV-native format, this one is a little different. The documentarian style adds to the scope of what the film can do on the big screen, generating a claustrophobic feeling that captures what it's like to really be in the catacombs, not to mention Hell. Add to this sound that largely eschews music, focusing not on soundtrack but the minutiae of the sound design, and you've got a picture made for a great big auditorium with total audio-visual clarity.
