I'm somewhat picky about what I watch - I don't like anything that depicts SA or related issues for example.

If you're interested in "watching" horror films without actually watching them, these are the channels I watch on YouTube (so you won't see any gore due to YTs terms and conditions):

  • Ryan Hollinger (horror film reviewer)
  • Roanoke Gaming (he studied biology and discusses how horror film diseases could work irl)
  • Foundflix (reviewer who basically gives a detailed rundown of the plot of horror films)

For games and movies:

  • Mertkaykay (expect videos to be 1-2 hours long as she provides very detailed analyses)
  • Earlybird (similar to Mertkaykay, but discussed predominantly unknown, retro, and Japanese horror games/films)
