10 | Extreme Horror Movies

Welcome back to Once Upon a Movie, where we explore the deeper connections between life and film. In this intense episode, Chino is joined by horror connoisseur and TikTok creator, Sinister Tims, for an unfiltered discussion on the most extreme horror movies ever made. From divisive cult classics like A Serbian Film and Salò to the visceral terror of Eden Lake, we dissect what makes these films so powerful, controversial, and, at times, unbearable to watch. We explore the psychology of extreme horror, the role of shock value, and the fine line between cinematic art and exploitation. Sinister Tims opens up about his earliest horror memories, how his father's VHS collection shaped his love for the genre, and why he still revisits films that scarred him as a child. Whether you’re curious about the darker side of horror or looking to test your limits, this episode pulls no punches. We also discuss the polarizing nature of "elevated horror" and its impact on the modern horror landscape. This is a raw, thought-provoking conversation that takes you to the depths of horror cinema. Topics Covered: Early horror movie experiences (Pumpkinhead, Child's Play 2, Jeepers Creepers) The psychological impact of horror movies on children Controversial horror films like Salò, A Serbian Film, and August Underground The artistry and moral debate of extreme horror Elevated horror vs. traditional horror (Ari Aster’s Hereditary and Midsommar) Exclusive insights into Sinister Tims' upcoming horror project Site 31 If you’ve ever been curious about the boundaries of horror or wondered why some people seek out the most shocking films imaginable, this episode is for you. Join Chino and Sinister Tims for a horror conversation unlike any other. 💬 Drop a comment with your most disturbing horror movie experience — we want to hear from YOU!
