Question Best horror of 2016?

2016 was a pretty down year for horror, IMO. I am looking forward to It. Especially in light of the clown gangstalking. But what was the best of the mediocre this year?

For me the best were The Conjuring 2 and Quija 2.

I didn't like The Witch or The Shallows, though they had some good or admirable qualities.

I might have found it a little underwhelming. I don't really remember too much of it.

Loved The Witch.

I enjoyed Conjuring 2 and The Shallows enough to put them at numbers two and three but neither film had any great impact on me.
Don't Breathe was a fun watch but never felt like a Horror movie to me.

Out of those offered I think I would choose Baskin or Witch.

I chose 'Other', however, as I enjoyed the Korean zombie movie Train to Busan more than these.

Best psychological horror:
The Blackcoat's Daughter

Best killer horror:
Cat Sick Blues

Best scary horror:
The Blackcoat's Daughter again, as it creeped me the fuck out. No other movie scared me this year.

Most enjoyable horror movie:
Train to Busan. A great zombie movie! Zombies were a real threat, the characters were explored enough to care about them and the violence was visceral without being tacky. I really enjoyed this one.

My most enjoyable movie experience this year.....
Either Re-animator (1985) or The Thing (1982)
