10 Recent Horror Movies You Should Watch Knowing NOTHING

10. Strange Darling

Pretty much every review for JT Mollner's delirious horror-thriller Strange Darling implores you to just watch the damn thing without reading much about where it's headed.

And they're absolutely right - know simply that it revolves around a cat-and-mouse game between a man (Kyle Gallner) and a woman (Willa Fitzgerald) following a one-night stand. That's it - that's all you need to know.

Strange Darling is far from your ordinary chase thriller, though - it cleverly plays with genre and narrative structure in some unexpected ways, while serving up deliciously hard-boiled dialogue and lashings of brutal, wince-inducing violence.

It's also beautifully filmed by Giovanni Ribisi in his first foray as a cinematographer, while the central performances from Gallner and Fitzgerald are absolutely note-perfect. All of this suggests a bright future for Mollner in the horror and horror-adjacent realm.

If you're in the market for a superficially familiar genre outing that's got some neat tricks up its sleeve, then look no further.
