Get Out
If you still haven't seen Get Out, there is no better year than this one. Jordan Peele housed his directorial debut in this film. It touches on some extremely important racial issues that are more prominent now than ever. When visits his girlfriend's family, he notices that things are a little off. Maybe, just maybe, a little too off...
The Strangers
A couple with interpersonal issues honeymoon up at a cozy house in the forest, but their trip gets interrupted by a group of masked strangers. The horrific acts of violence in this film feel unwarranted, abstract, and nonsensical. That's really what makes the whole thing terrifying.
