10 Recent Horror Movies You Should Watch Knowing NOTHING
8. I Saw the TV Glow
I Saw the TV Glow is the Emma Stone-produced sophomore feature from filmmaker Jane Schoenbrun, whose previous horror film We're All Going to the World's Fair is also one you should watch as blindly as possible.
'90s kids will uniquely connect with Schoenbrun's nostalgic window into a past here that's not quite as innocent as it seems, delivering a true original horror which benefits from its bewildering visual style and a pair of outstanding performances from Justice Smith and Brigette Lundy-Paine.
The beauty of I Saw the TV Glow is that its obtuseness makes it tough to spoil - it's a film primed to garner a multitude of responses from different types of viewer, and for adventurous genre fans, is sure to leave them breathlessly excited by horror's possibilities.
A tectonic step up from Schoenbrun's low-fi prior feature, this is confident, assured filmmaking with something to say about identity, and makes it near-impossible not to be psyched for whatever she produces next.
