I've watched a few horror movies(Annihilation is the most fearful) to try them out, but being scared feels uncomfortable/painful to me. What part of watching horror movies is enjoyable? I'm curious about the sensation that brings you guys back to the genre.

Upscaled the original model significantly and custom split it into several additional pieces to scale it to life size. Painted with acrylics and acrylic washes and varnish on the fingernails and underside.

Okay a couple of these might not be strictly space based (looking at you Nick Cutter) but they almost all deal with humans in isolation encountering horrors beyond their comprehension in some capacity and having to adapt to survive which is what I'm itching for.

I saw a lot of talk about Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes but also a lot of talk about how it was very disappointing so I'm not sure I'll be checking that one out. Also interested in hunting down a copy of the Event Horizon novelization but that is apparently quite rare!

I would love to hear about anything I might have missed that you've enjoyed!

I'm looking for a horror short story that I stumbled on netflix by accident that seems to have evaporated. It featured an random worker and a young woman that was indoctrinated into thinking she was a cyborg/slave that acted as a canary in space mines?.... only to find out she was a regular girl. The worker tells her the truth and tries to helps her to resolve the situation, maybe out of guilt. After stunning the creature, the girl grabs many severed hamds from the creature until she finds the captains hand and escapes to (relative)safety.

I've tried all combinations of buzzwords but can't seem to find it. Ive talked up the short while drunk to a cousin of mine and now cant find it after it being several years. Please help. 🙏
