10 Terrifying Low Budget Horror Movies

10. Spree

Spree is a found footage film revolving around Kurt Kunkle, a self-professed social-media influencer and all-round weirdo. Played with an easy charm by Stranger Things’ Joe Keery, Spree maps out Kunkle’s reach for celebrity as he streams a series of murders live from his taxi.

Eugene Kotlyarenko's 2020 picture is a simple film that shows you just what some people will do in order to get those ever-elusive ‘likes’ and ‘follows’ on social media. It would be hilarious if it wasn’t so painfully true, and we can’t help but sympathise with Krunkle as he tries to be someone in a world that could not care less about him. Granted, maybe he goes about things the wrong way, but his boundless enthusiasm in his pursuit of relevance is heartbreakingly relatable.

Spree is a small movie - it has a small cast, a small story and it mostly occurs in a small space - but, like Kurt Krunkle himself, it has lofty ambitions and is well worth your time if you’re looking for a different spin on a genre that has often been described as well-worn and past its best.
