10 Underrated Horror Movies You Need To See

3. Inside

A critically praised example of new wave French horror, the narrative follows a young pregnant woman spending Christmas Eve alone, or at least, so she believes, until an unhinged visitor enters with the intention of stealing her unborn child. Talk about rude.

In the same way The Strangers and You're Next inspired a true discomfort with being home alone, Inside takes it one step further, with the mysterious woman constantly outsmarting or brutally murdering any potential saviours as they enter the house. It's gritty, intense, and absolutely drenched in gore - and a perfect example of newcomer filmmakers Juilen Maury and Alexandre Bustillo's nasty imagination paired with admirable directorial teamwork.

Mean Girls was right: don't have sex or you WILL get pregnant and you WILL die. The evidence is impossible to ignore.
