The Ranger
From Stranger Things to It, the horror genre's nostalgia for the 1980s shows little sign of fading. Jenn Wexler's directorial debut The Ranger takes its influence from both stalk'n'slash movies of the era and the decade's punk-rock scene, and delivers a ragged but entertaining backwoods slasher. A group of punk-loving kids go on the run after a confrontation with police ends badly, and they decide to hide out in a forest cabin owned by one of the gang's family members. Unfortunately, the whole region is guarded by a sinister park ranger who takes a disliking to these arrogant city kids. What the movie lacks in originality and sympathetic characters, it makes up for with gory thrills, and House of Cards' Jeremy Holm has great scene-chewing fun as the psycho ranger.

May The Devil Take You
Indonesian director Timo Tjahjanto made one of 2018's best action releases--the brutal and thrilling The Night Comes For Us, which can now be found on Netflix. But that's not the only movie this talented filmmaker has delivered over the past few months. May the Devil Take You sees Tjahjanto tackle the horror genre, with a story of a man who invites a curse upon himself in exchange for success and wealth. Unfortunately for him--and more specifically his extended family--it's payback time. Tjahjanto directs horror like he does action--noisily and without much subtlety--and the film is massively indebted to the Evil Dead series. But it's a slambang, hyper-stylised ride featuring pleasingly old-school make-up effects, as Tjahjanto puts his cast through all sorts of gruesome, gore-soaked demonic mayhem.

Monster Party
A trio of would-be thieves pose as waiters at an exclusive dinner party in a lavish mansion, with the intention of ripping off the rich attendees. But it turns out that the party-goers are actually recovering serial killers who have their own ways of dealing with these intruders. Monster Party isn't quite sure if it wants to be a comedy slasher movie or more of a serious satire on class and privilege, but once you get past the the frankly ridiculous set-up, it's a whole lot of gory, limb-lopping fun. Watch out for a great performance from John Wick's Lance Reddick as the serial killer's leader.

The Perfection
This recent Netflix Original is a wild and over-the-top thriller that delivers some of the year's most memorably disturbing imagery. The unpredictable plot focuses on Charlotte (Get Out's Allison Williams), a former child cello prodigy who had to give up her dreams to take care of her ailing mother. A decade later, Charlotte reconnects with her former tutors and meets Lizzie, the latest graduate from their exclusive music school. To say any more would be to spoil the movie's many twists, but suffice to say that if dismemberment, vomiting bugs, and sinister sex cults sound like a good time, then this is the movie for you. The Perfection might deal with some serious themes, but ultimately it's a trashy, darkly funny B-movie knows exactly what its audience wants.

The Witch In The Window
Director Andy Mitton's previous movie, We Go On, was one of Shudder's earliest horror exclusives, and his follow-up has also found a natural home on the platform. This is a creepy haunted house tale, in which a father and his son start renovating a countryside home with the intention of flipping it for profit. Inevitably, they learn that the house has a dark past--an old woman died there years earlier but still inhabits its rooms. It's an atmospheric and spooky movie but also an affecting drama about the struggles of parenthood and a failing marriage. Strong performances and stylish directing make this a superior ghost story, and at only 75 minutes, it packs an emotional punch lacking from many films twice its length.
