Some horror movies quickly lose their appeal after just one watch, but others — assuming you can sit through them again — only get better the more you watch them.
Films like “Get Out” and “Us,” for example, both contain themes about race and class that become more apparent on subsequent viewings —once you can focus more on setting and characters, and less on suspenseful plot points and bloody murder scenes.
And even older movies, like Stanley Kubrick’s horror classic “The Shining” and Takashi Miike’s beautiful and bloody “Audition,” take on new meanings the second (or third, or fourth) time around.
Watching these movies over again not only yields new insights, but also a deeper understanding of the themes and undertones that make them so memorable.
