Mike Flanagan shares epic list of his favourite horror movies on Letterboxd

Between The Fall of the House of Usher, The Midnight Club, The Haunting of Hill House, and many more, Mike Flanagan is quickly becoming one of horror's household names.

But what horror movies does the man himself like what watching? On Sunday, the writer/director joined the film-focused social media platform Letterboxd, and his first port of call was drawing up some all-time favourite lists.

"Finally joined Letterboxd," wrote Flanagan on Twitter/X. "Only positing positivity, and it's going to take me a few weeks to catch up on building my profile, but here's a start."
