1. The Perfection

Horror movies about classical music are about as common as a kazoo in an orchestra. So, what exactly do you think a horror movie about a pair of classical musicians would look like? Well, as you can probably tell by the nature of this list, it's not this.

The Perfection tells the story of a pair of prodigy cellists, one who found success and another who left the music world to care for her ill mother. They go on an adventure together, only for a series of shocking twists to send them spiraling down a sinister path.

This is another film where you'll need supernatural powers to know what is coming next. It constantly tricks you by making you think the movie is heading one way, only to pull the rug out from under you. At first, The Perfection makes you believe it will be a fun adventure, then it feels like a contagion movie, then it's body horror, and so on until the final note plays.

The film manages to be all sorts of different genres and plots mashed into one another, with the narrative taking you down many avenues you won't expect.
