20 Horror Films That Will Chill You To The Bone In 2015
11. Spring
If Richard Linklater attempted a remake of Val Lewtons Cat People, the end result might resemble Spring, an interesting oddity about an attractive couple who meet in a picturesque locale and quickly chat their way into a close bond. Soon enough, they find their ties tested by the young womans propensity for periodically moonlighting as something fantastical. Spring is the second movie from indie filmmaking duo Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, the pair behind Resolution, a cabin-in-the-woods horror subversion that's the best 2013 genre movie you most likely haven't seen. Resolution was made on the super-cheap and shot in the outskirts of San Diego; Spring, on the other hand, was shot on location in Italy and includes a few highly structured practical effects shots that look pricier than they actually are. More important than the visuals, though, is Spring's central love story; the film is being praised as the sweetest body horror movie you're likely to see. It looks like David Cronenberg's love story in The Fly has some competition.
