2016 is a year of horror films. Out of the many that came our way, 3 films stand-out.

The fear and anxiety in Babak Anvari’s Under The Shadow not only lurks around closed doors, broken windows, shady basements, restricted roads, terrorized neighborhood but travels almost everywhere. The universality of the fear, both supernatural and real, is terrifying to an extent where the human mind starts questioning everything. And what makes Under The Shadow a brilliant horror film is when it proves your guesses to be wrong in every other instance. It’s a smart, skillful and eerie thriller that haunts you out of your mind.
