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?

I've mentioned it before, and I'll do so again! The Signal was a nice surprise, that sorta came and went in theaters, and we've watched it a handful of times since, as a spooky sci-fi comfort film. It's been a long while since the last time, though, so it may not have quite the same impact now, but that kinda makes me want to watch it more.

And not that it's at all smaller, but Shin Godzilla for another to watch over and over. So beautifully done.

Shin Gojira is the best fucking monster movie and the best daikaijuu movie of all fucking time. Everything about it is PERFECT.
