12 Underrated Recent Horror Movies You NEED To See

4. Green Room

Green Room
A24

Probably the most violent entry on this list and easily the most disturbing (sorry, Intruders), Blue Ruin director Jeremy Saulnier’s unbearably tense and uber bleak Green Room was released to arthouse praise but little mainstream recognition in 2015.

The simple and ingenious story of a punk band trapped in the titular green room as a pack of vicious Neo Nazis congregate outside to kill them, this unfortunately relevant flick combines the tense siege film with psychological horror elements as the gang begin to splinter mentally from the trauma of their predicament.

It may conclude with a barnstorming-ly brutal bit of catharsis but, despite its brief runtime, an unending string of real world events can guarantee this one will stick with you for some time after its credits roll.
