Suitable Flesh
Suitable Flesh, streaming on Hulu, is a twisted and sensual horror film directed by Joe Lynch. It should be a real treat for fans of H.P. Lovecraft, as the story is inspired by his story The Thing on the Doorstep. The film explores themes of identity, madness, and the fragility of the human psyche and stars Heather Graham as Dr. Elizabeth Derby, a psychiatrist whose obsession with one of her patients leads her down a dark and nightmarish path.
Joe Lynch directs and brings his signature mix of gore and dark humor to this project. Fans of cosmic horror will appreciate the film’s eerie exploration of identity and madness, with a modern spin on Lovecraft’s unsettling themes. It doesn’t shy away from bold, gruesome visuals that pay homage to classic body horror films, and its retro aesthetic is a nod to the classics.
Lord of Misrule
Lord of Misrule is a folk horror gem that blends atmospheric tension with a chilling storyline. It follows a grieving mother whose life spirals into darkness when her young daughter disappears in a mysterious small-town festival.
The title and themes draw heavily from ancient English folklore and the Lord of Misrule, a figure associated with chaos and role reversal during medieval festivals. The story uses its rural setting to craft an eerie and immersive world with dense woods, firelit rituals, and unnerving symbols. If you love the eerie, ritualistic vibes of The Witch or Midsommar, this movie delivers with its unsettling take on small-town traditions.
