Music tends to influence me more now that I'm older, but early on movies like Secret Window and Minority Report had an effect on my writing. Basically any psychological thriller I really like.
Get Out influenced my horror stories in a big way. my prof used to say "Good horror is taking societal fears and giving them form." I had thought it a lofty ideal, but Peele did it. he did it so well.
Do you like Asian horror?
I haven't seen as much as I'd like. got any recommendations?
Okay, so technically not 'a movie', but the Harry Potter series (books + movies) is/are? the reason I finally got the courage to try it myself, especially after seeing 'Magic Beyond Words'. Also, 'Stuck in Love' made me believe that maybe I could actually do this crazy thing and write a book. I still watch it when I get stuck and I need more motivation to push through.
I loved "Breaking the Waves" but I consider "Antichrist" the point in Von Trier's career where he officially lost his mind.
