I know I made a thread like this before
Looking for more specific scary movies this time since I've watched a couple since my last thread
Now I know what kind of horror movies I'm in the mood for

Looking for scary movies that involve
Hauntings
Possessions
Spirits
Demons
No serial killers
No psycopaths
No human possessions
Main character/s are normal average people that can't/don't directly fight back(most likely helpless)
Very Creepy/eerie setting throughout
No slashers
80% of the movie being very creepy and eerie and MAYBE 20% of adrenaline heart racing moments


Examples I guess
Sinister
Event Horizon
Conjuring ( brief human possession is ok )
mothman proph
sixth sense
Alien(1)
Ju-On
The thing

Two great movies that come to mind that are both about Satan:

Rosemary's Baby (its so subtle - you can hardly believe it)
The 9th Gate

but probably more like 98% creepy and 2% horror)

another great creepy/horror films are the work of director Dario Argentia

the best one was probably Suspiria (warning - will cause Nightmares)

A more fun one that i really enjoyed was Idle Hands

(Jessica Alba's first film) - good date movie (might cause erections)

Oculus
The Descent
Mama

I found those movies pretty frighting.

Also The Cabin in the Woods and maybe Martyrs

Will check rosemary's baby
Saw 9th gate(j Depp?) wasn't a fan of it
Will check suspiria with caution
Liked idle hands but not looking for comedy

I liked evil dead but mot what I'm looking for
Looking for more helpless or hopeless characters that don't go and attack the protagonist directly
