Are you asking for just any movies from those past 4 or so year, or something less known? Because I’m just gonna list out a bunch of the popular ones if I had to answer this.

Not sure if these are well known or not, just going to list them in no particular order.
Scouts Guide to the Apocalypse (+2)
Let Us Prey
Infini
Zombeavers (not really horror but it's a well done trashy zombie-ish comedy)
The Perfection (this is the one that grossed out a lot of people but it's interesting, go in cold if possible, the less you know the better)
The Meg, if you like action/monster movies (I do)
The following I thought were just okay but people I know liked them:
It Follows
Bad Samaritan
Creep

As a Teresa Palmer fan I would have to say 'Lights Out' was not only of my favourite Horror movies of the past four years but one of my favourite Horror movies of the last two decades and Teresa Palmer was fantastic in it and it is worth checking out if you have never seen it before.

Wouldn't you rather watch good old school horror from the 70's, 80's and 90'? Why? If we are starting with the idea that they're good then why does it matter when they were made? |

Why? If we are starting with the idea that they're good then why does it matter when they were made? I am asking because I don’t know your reference of horror films. Good is pretty much all subjective, I just have a bigger interest in horror films past and not millennial ones. Well, I didn't ask the question, but you asked 'wouldn't you rather watch good old school horror movies?' Which sounds more like a judgment than a clarifying question. |

That is why I wish lazy posters would use some sort of avatar to identify. Well, quite frankly, and I don’t think I will be alone on this, pre-millennial horror is far more original and superior to millennial. Nothing lazy about not using a picture. We have usernames. If the starting point is that these are really good movies, it doesn't matter when they came out. Also he specifically asked for new stuff, so telling him to watch old stuff is pointless. Presumably he wants help finding new stuff because he's not as familiar with what's new and good. Also, I do think you'll likely be alone in thinking that the 90s were part of those supposed glory days of old school horror.

You also have the option of using an identifiable image to go along with it. Have some imagination.
You are answering for him because I don't know his point of reference and since to my mind there are only a handful of millennial horror films that I like and most I avoid, unlike the eras I mentioned—yes, the 90's did start to get abysmal too, but I know of them more—I wanted to know what his thoughts were on this.
I do have that option. I also have the option not to do that because I don't feel the need or care to just because others don't want to look at the user names. Fair enough as far as answering for him, I'm interpreting as much as you I suppose, and maybe I misinterpreted your question then, as it didn't sound like genuine interest to me. I'd also say that I think horror is in a pretty good place right now. You have your mainstream stuff of varying qualities, but I think some of the arthouse and independent horror films of the past decade of have been really strong and with so many outlets there's a lot of variety. There's a lot of bullshit, but there are some really good filmmakers working in horror now. I'd definitely say that the genre is in a better place than it was in the '90s, for instance.

I think it says more about the person and is even more giving to have an avatar, than just hide behind a username and a faceless image. Are you telling me that you don't identify by images from posters you are used too? It helps you too.
Admittedly, I don't have very much interest in millennial horror and the past few years have been very disappointing for me, with the exception of Hereditary and The Conjuring 2, but those are perhaps ones the op already knows of and are more popular.
The 90's had a blandness about it that seeped into the 00's. I did like Freddy vs Jason, House Of Wax, Hostel 1 & 2, Last House On The Left and Let Me In and perhaps The Hills Have Eyes. The problem is, nothing is too original anymore, even those that I mentioned were based on previous films with the exception of Hostel and those aren't from the 10's.
I'm telling you that I don't care. If someone wants to use an avatar that's fine, but I simply don't give shit. And you're reading way more into it than it deserves. Trying to accuse people of hiding or being lazy if they don't care as much about using an image on a message board is completely silly. Anyway, we're progressively getting away from the point here, but there's a lot more than just Hereditary out there and I don't count anything from the James Wan camp in the original and good stuff of recent years. I totally get sticking with watching older stuff, but just because you're not familiar with newer good stuff doesn't mean it doesn't exist. There's so much more being made now in general that there's plenty of good stuff plenty of absolute garbage and tons and tons of mediocrity out there. But if you're willing to watch a lot of stuff and sift through everything there are gems to be found. And I'd argue more recently than in the 90s and early 2000s. |

I know you don't care about your lack of avatar and that is part of my point. Suit yourself, but you know full well that a posters avatar does assist you in identifying them. Pity you can't offer the same courtesy.
Time and convenience is a factor regarding watching films and I more often than not go to the cinema to see films today. It is all subjective really and if you feel there is a lot of good stuff out there, I don't have that point of reference and even if I did get to watch more millennial horror, I doubt it would change my mind about better stuff from last century.
The 90's did try to re-invent the 80's slasher via Kevin Williamson with some mixed results and I didn't mind stuff in the early 90's, but staleness was starting to creep in.
And, I guess part of my point is you care to a surprising degree. Yes an avatar assists in identifying a poster, but if there isn't one it takes me an extra nanosecond to look at the name and I'm not slightest bit bothered by it... and I find it odd that it would bother anyone else. I always would ideally see a film in a theater, and most of the harder-to-find stuff is more accessible where I live than for most other people, but often I discover things on cable and streaming. Not many things get the chance to make it to a real theatrical run and I can't make it to everything, and so much of the best of the new and interesting horror films are small independent movies that multiplexes won't be showing. And there's no need to change your view of the old stuff, but just because something old is good doesn't exclude new stuff from being good too. Kevin Williamson did a great service to the genre, but then that whole subversion of the cliches very quickly became a new cliche. Maybe faster than any other genre shift I can think of.
