10 Horror Movies That Stick The Landing
2. The Borderlands
Nothing to do with the acclaimed video game series or its awful big-screen adaptation, The Borderlands is a 2013 found footage horror movie that was also called The Final Prayer when it was released in America.
It centres around three men who are sent by the Vatican to investigate a potential miracle at an old church in the English countryside. Once they arrive, they discover that the building is actually on an ancient pagan worship ground, which is one of the worst places they could have possibly put it.
After an exorcism goes wrong, two of the men, Deacon (Gordon Kennedy) and Gray (Robin Hill) go into the church's basement after hearing human voices. They follow the sounds through a small tunnel, before realising that it isn't a tunnel at all - it's the digestive tract of an enormous creature living beneath the Earth.
This is a fantastic twist. It genuinely comes from out of nowhere without disrupting the flow of the film and the screams of Deacon and Gray as the beast begins to digest them will stay with you for the rest of your life.
