I'm sharing my top five horror movies of 2025 on Instagram! Please take a look, if you're curious.
First up is a folk horror from Thailand, based on the legend of Mae Sue, a protective spirit of newborns.
A tale of bullying, revenge, and reform school!

Most famous for a ton of smaller/medium-size roles in Hammer Horror movies.
