Alien/Aliens is a given for most people. I have been watching Event Horizon during the spooky season for years. What are some of your favorite books and movies with a horror/psychological thriller lean?

There are some generally great small(!) / low budget movies, especially sci-fi. Here's one example, this one's basically zero budget but it's a great one (12min): https://tube.instellate.xyz/watch?v=GhDlV9PDw3Y

Demon Seed. I like the book mostly, but even the movie has such an outlandish premise that makes for a great watch, especially for first-timers.

Pilot episode of Rakka. It's so well done and has a lot of potential, but alas it's a small studio doing these kinds of things and has no backing of one of woke studios.
