Movie lovers, help me out!
I’m trying to make a list of #Jewish #horror #movies. I explicitly want it to be where Jewish folklore is accurately (or relatively accurately) portrayed, rather than some weird appropriated nonsense.
There are other lists but they include movies that just have a Jewish actor in, or movies that I wouldn’t classify as horror (e.g. Shiva Baby).
Help me #Mazeldon, you’re my only hope!

Update: I’ve bought #Scapegoated on kindle. Will update with a review once I’ve read it!

welp, I finally watched #TheOffering
so, I don't consume a lot of #horror. I may regret starting it around midnight, not bc I'm worried about nightmares (I don't remember my dreams), but bc my heart rate isn't going to slow for the next two hours 😅
honestly though, it was good. I could have done with fewer jump scares (Link might have stayed on my lap), but it was really nice seeing #Jewish symbolism and hearing Hebrew prayers

Watching #Burial on #Shudder #horror #jewishhorror
#burial #shudder #horror #jewishhorror
While we’re on the subject, these are the best #Jewish #Horror #Movies I’ve watched. It’s a short list because most twist Jewish lore completely into something else (see: The Possession with it’s completely fake ‘Dybbuk box’)
1. Demon, 2015, Polish - fantastic!
2. The Vigil, 2021
Want to see:
- Shiva Baby
- The Boys from Brazil (DVD arrived today!)
Would very much welcome recommendations! (I haven’t seen The Golem 1915).
