TOP 10 TECH HORROR MOVIES

[@letsjustpretend1]

I’m so glad Stay Alive is on here. I LOVE that movie. I used to call it a guilty pleasure along with Thirteen Ghosts but I’ve decided recently there is no guilt associated with how much I love those movies 😂

[@paulflint6254]

Stay Alive was good, I'd forgotten about that one

[@blinddog1212]

Exactly! I say, just call it a pleasure!

[@rmusic08]

I liked stay alive, i def think the unrated version makes it a more cohesive movie though

[@drew2510]

I love these top ten videos you have been putting out! You also look super cute in this, giving me very Tecna from the Winx Club vibes 👾

[@aaronshouting588]

Both David Cronenberg and Shinya Tsukomoto have made body horror films about the merging of man and technology. Highly recommend their movies, especially ones like Videodrome and Tetsuo: the iron man

[@peterproductions5015]

Guess this runs in the Cronenberg family because Brandon, his son, made Possessor.

[@blinddog1212]

Agreed. Existenz too.

[@heatweve]

i simply can't get over videodrome 😭

[@phantomkitten73]

My favorite tech horror movie is definitely Upgrade. I don't know if you would personally count that movie for what this list is, but man, everything about that movie is just perfect. I'd also put V/H/S/2 and Inside No. 9: Cold Comfort

[@Horrorzeit]

My 2 absolute favs desktop/tech movies are "Searching" and "Spree".

[@GoreyBits]

HOST is a terrific movie. I remember renting GHOST IN THE MACHINE as a kid, and that had the first technology scares I ever encountered.

[@dennofhorror]

I mentioned Ghost in the Machine too. Nice to see someone remembering that little one.

[@melissawinn3295]

I didn't like it I thought unfriended was an lot better than host

[@t1mm767]

Please watch dead set (2008) on Netflix!! Reality tv show themed and it’s great!!

[@PossessedbyHorror]

omg yes NEED to watch this asap

[@Wrightgrlgnebd]

The way my 2000s horror heart leapt when I saw title for this video. Great list! Some of my favorites when done right.

[@thehitherto5348]

Glad to see The Den here. I actually found it hard to watch since the entire film was basically "terrible things happening to the female lead".

[@matthewevans7841]

I kept waiting for Await Further Instructions to pop up on your list… a great horror movie exploring technology and its relationship to obedience to authority

[@ryanbromm207]

I thought Upgrade (2018) was a great tech horror! Loved the camera movement and utopian/dystopian world building.

[@emilyjane2000]

Oh 100%! Really didn’t think it’d be my thing, but I loved it! In my top 10 horror films for sure

[@heatheraggus7501]

Same here! Very entertaining

[@sebastianx13]

Upgrade is amazing

[@robyntm]

I'm lovingggg these horror subgenre top 10 lists you've been putting out. It's such a fun way to get new recs and I feel like it must be so fun to research and put the list together. I have never heard of stay alive, but it looks right up alley so I'm gonna check that one out! Great video as always :)

[@mehdigeek]

loving the 2000s hair

[@jambgsu07]

Someone mentioned "Searching" and tech horror makes me think of "Friend Request ". Could you make a social media horror list?

[@AlbertWilmarth1917]

"Searching" (2018) is one of my favorite films of all time (although obviously more of a thriller). As far as early 2000s tech horror, "The Collingswood Story" is an underrated one. I can't say that it's "good", and some of the acting is...less than stellar, but there's something very fun and comforting about it, and it has a great autumnal/Halloween vibe.

[@AngieWade]

Searching was such a great movie. It beat my expectations and I enjoyed it very much.

[@Gee-Raf]

Searching was great. Definitely worth the watch.

[@societycrumbles]

Searching was great!

[@HorrorNorms]

I agree with all your recommendations and I just love your channel!! Unfriended is a treasure and one of my ultimate guilty pleasures. Also like Upgrade, Cabin in the Woods, Belko Experiment and Escape Room that i consider somewhat techi-esque! I have yet to see Possessor but heard good things...

[@michaelmelton999]

Cool topic! The two "tech horror" films that I thought of were Brainscan (1994,) about a video game that uses new technology that links with the player's mind in a horror gaming experience that puts the player in an ultra realistic perspective of a murderer, only to realize after that the murders are actually real... Or are they? And Hardware (1990) which is a cyberpunk horror suspense thriller about a tooth and nail fight against a murderous robot. Also I appreciate your reviews and opinions I like your channel, I've enjoyed some good recommendations from here

[@Holybible3366]

Yes it's pronounced "RingOU" lol btw Sarah i would be highly interested in a review for the movie "Cherry Falls" because it's a pretty rare movie (i've seen you bought it) i liked it & i would be very interested about your thoughts on the movie ;) btw great content as usual as an horror fan lol (first time posting here ^^)

[@erikagilliam6318]

Great list! I don't know if you have these lists already but I LOVE movies about games/puzzles and experiments/drug trials and stuff like that. That would be so cool 😎

[@GrayWolf5000]

I think one missed call is so underrated. Thanks for showcasing it here

[@shteve119]

The 2008 movie "Untraceable" I think would make a great addition to this list, plus it's an early 2000s horror! It's about this website that is streming the slow deaths of kidnapped victims, and the fbi agent trying to stop it. The twist tho is that the more people that enter the live stream, the faster it kills the victim. It's pretty good tbh!

[@taylormortimore793]

Thank you for this comment! I was trying to find this movie and I only had vague memories of it. I thought it was a fever dream! Some of those deaths I will never forget omg Ty

[@katep.3223]

I love Untraceable, but it's probably more thriller than horror, which might be why it wasn't included.

[@clairewilson]

Ok before I watch this video I just want to say you're looking like an early 2000s icon 🔥🔥🔥

[@MissTeaASMR]

CAM is one of my favourites! Great list 🖤🖤

[@elusivegluejeff4980]

Sarah, you should definitely wear your hair up more often, it really suits you. Great content as always 👍👍👍

[@thecookiepolly]

I love your outfit!!! Also I'm so happy that you've mentioned Stay Alive because I've been obsessed with this movie since it came out :D I like The Rings as well, idk why so many people hate on it.

[@ryanbromm207]

I also thought child’s play (2019) was a pretty good tech version of chucky. Not my favorite in the franchise but wasn’t a bad movie, I enjoyed it.

[@downwardisheavenward3006]

Completely agree with you about the One Missed Call movies. The original is my favorite, but I was actually pleasantly surprised how good the remake is.

[@robk.6591]

My favorite tech horror movie is Tetsuo: The Iron Man. It's my kind of weird. 🤪

[@jasongjokaj5157]

i feel like there are much more techno thrillers than horror tbh. nerve (2016) is one of my favorites that I always rewatch lol

[@thequestion4818]

STAY ALIVE is produced by Buena Vista Pictures, a subsidary of Walt Disney Pictures, making it Disneys only slasher film. PUT IT ON DISNEY+ YOU COWARDS.

[@Carolina-xp6cf]

this gonna sound crazy but your voice is so relaxing it makes me sleepy I love that

[@radovalef2901]

Okay a) I AM 100% OBSESSED WITH THE OUTFIT. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. We need a 2000's inspired look-book asap and b) I totally recommed the South Korean horror film Phone from 2002. Absolutley fantastic tech-horror! Love your vibs and how unapologetic you are about your opinions, keep up the amazing work!

[@garethallen4191]

I really like Rings. I own it and find myself rewatching it pretty often. That opening scene in the plane is terrifying.

[@lanacherie184]

I didn't understand feardotcom having such a low rating like yea I get the dialogue and what not wasn't great but such a great eerie atmosphere and compelling enough story imo. And loved the og pulse haven't seen the remake tho

[@hayden7512]

Im really surprised that you didn’t know nclude Upgrade (2018) by Leigh Whannell! I guess it’s more action/thriller though. Great effects and acting especially for the limited budget.

[@thekawaiislartibartfast42]

I love and resent Upgrade so much. The choreography is amazing!!!

[@lukewarmmess_]

I’m surprised Untraceable (with Diane Lane) didn’t make it into this list! I feel like if you haven’t watched it, you’d get a kick out of it. It’s super cheesy, 2000s film!

[@angelvasquez1592]

Do a tier list of top 10 horror movie characters that almost made it but got killed

[@saideldenila8048]

I'm glad to hear that you will be making a tier list for v/h/s franchise. I've recently watched the entire franchise and I enjoyed it. My favorite segment is The Subject. I hope it gets a spin-off.

[@user-ey4yo4ci1k]

stay alive is one of my favorite horror movies from the 2000s I love that you mentioned it

[@emilyfleur647]

Could you do a ranking video of all the VHS scenes/clips/stories (I don’t know what you would call them) please? ❤️❤️❤️

[@sarahtonin313]

The Japanese version of one missed call’s ringtone is my current ringtone 😊

[@samanthakatecreates6179]

I really enjoyed Host 😃

[@Moaritsu]

I love the Japanese Pulse. I think the "ghosts" and the ending were soo haunting, original, and scary. It has a really unsettling quietness. Curious about the remake but I almost love the original too much to check it out.

[@blinddog1212]

More top 10 subgenre videos, for sure! Loving it. Surprisingly, all of the One Missed Calls are wonderful! I didn't have high hopes for the sequels, but honestly, they're great.

[@rogue0007]

i love your content and have been subscribed to you for yeaaaarsss!!! seriously, thank you for never stoping making vídeos 💕🥺 also, followed you on tik tok

[@dancingqueen2017]

Hell yes for VHS! One of my all time favorites. I’m also happy to see Unfriended on this list! I feel like a lot of people loved to hate that movie when it came out, but I genuinely love it!

[@Samuelmarros]

I love the original Pulse (Kairo), that for wahtever reason I always thought it was korean, but you're right, it's japanese. The first half of the movie has so much genuin horror elements that I think it could work ok today, and the second part is sooo dreadful and sad. It's a bit long and incredibly slow, but I do love how that as well works in the horror. Amazing

[@eastcoastandloveit3857]

What are your thoughts on the cube franchise?. It could be a tech movie. One of the best Canadian horror films .Love your videos . Take care

[@zaldigr863]

omg i love your shirt!! where did you get it

[@PossessedbyHorror]

I found it secondhand on depop!

[@autumrose6240]

Just watched Cam for the first time and while I was kind of disappointed with what the clone ending up being, it was still a good movie! I don’t think there’s a single recommendation you’ve given that I haven’t liked!

[@axelprice9798]

Love this video. My most recent obsession is the Halloween franchise. You should definitely rank them I’d love to see your opinions

[@Wulfgar23111]

I was lucky enough to see Cam on the big screen at Fantastic Fest and thought it was, well... fantastic and got a Q and A from the writer and director after. It is one I've gone back to multiple times. I also love the V/H/S franchise. So many good segments. I love well done horror anthology films.

[@societycrumbles]

I would include "Countdown". It's bad, but it involves a phone app.

[@Kasenator-_-]

Also another tech horror flick is the remake of Child’s Play.

[@terriblefrisbee744]

I love the movie Tau. It was on netflix but I think they removed it

[@AmmoGlitter]

Upgrade and The Invisible Man are some great recent additions to the genre! (Also does Ingrid Goes West count? I feel like it could be read as a horror movie, of sorts!)

[@vickytime3855]

Love those two as well. Interesting. I've been putting off Ingrid for quite a while but your comment has me wanting to see it soon!

[@obelus72]

For cheesy tech horror 2016's Friend Request is a gem!

[@UJEvans]

Stay Alive is in my top 5 2000s horror. I remember seeing the trailer as a kid and waiting almost ten years to finally see it Also, yes Ringu is pronounced "Ringoo".

[@camronmerrill4824]

Just saw your post on twitter. I came as fast as i could 😂

[@taylormortimore793]

I remember “White Noise” 2005 freaked me out as a kid. I haven’t seen it in a while but I’m curious to know if you’ve seen that one. Also “The Signal” 2007 is one of my all time favorites! A psychological one (not super horror but very intriguing) “Starfish” 2018 Starfish is not a tech horror but I think you’d really like it especially considering melancholia one of your favorite films of all time! Love your videos! Thank you for your recommendations ♥️

[@MelAmethyst]

Love that you included Stay Alive! I liked Ratter - woman being stalked through her phone and laptop, the film is shown through the various cameras which I thought was cool

[@cathlynncadaver5429]

Sarah, you have no idea how happy it made me to hear you ACTUALLY praise the american remake of 'pulse'.. I have literally NEVER heard a horror creator talk about it in a positive light. Yes, the original movie is great, I'm definitely NOT discounting it.. however, I feel like generally, any time someone has a negative opinion of the remake, their whole argument is that they feel no compassion for the characters, that it isn't scary and that overall, it failed to capture the emotion/point of the original. I completely disagree! the first time I saw the american version, I found the whole concept of the internet basically taking away a person's will to live HORRIFYING and I thought they did an EXCELLENT job conveying the constant unease, sense of urgency and feeling of hopelessness Kristen Bell's character felt throughout the entire movie. People also tend to complain about her performance as the lead and I thought not only her, but the entire cast was great. Sorry for my little rant/tangent, I was just so happy to hear someone other than myself give this movie the praise I've always felt it deserves ☺️🖤🖤

[@pkourakos]

There's another technology-based movie called Pulse that stars the Lawrence brothers.

[@Gee-Raf]

I completely agree and Kristen Bell is a fantastic actress, so nuanced.

[@loficoleslaw1396]

I love the remake too, the original is good and has “that one scene” which is terrifying but overall it’s a little too slow for my adhd brain

[@cathlynncadaver5429]

@@loficoleslaw1396 YES! same here. I have a hard time with slow burns.

[@LittleRedTeaCake]

Pulse and Stay Alive have been on my fav list for years. The weirdest thing is that I remember Stay Alive wayyyy differently than what the movie actually is and I have seen both cuts. It's really strange. I was explaining it to my husband, so we watched it and I sat there like, "wait, this is not how I remember this!" Can't figure it out. Also, I love Kristen Bell, so her in a horror movie is golden. I also really like the V/H/S franchise as well. It has some really great shorts in it. Loved the video and I LOVE your whole look today. :)

Sarah, you would probably hate this one but I feel like I still have to mention for SOMEONE out there this movie called "Dial: Help" from 1988. It's directed by the same guy who did Cannibal Holocaust and the old phone technology is to die for! I lot of people hate it but I just loved it.

[@Misterexel]

I don't know if anyone has answered yet, but you are correct about Ringu's pronunciation. It's "RING-OO." Generally, if you see the letter "u" in a Japanese word or name, it has the "oo" pronunciation.

Have you ever seen Chain Letter?

I’m late on this video, but the pronunciation of Ringu is Reen-gu. Ring-you would be spelled differently phonetically (リング vsリンギュ). Hope that helps!

Not sure if it counts but I did like “Shutter” and the “Paranormal Activity” series. I so want to like found footage films but some of them make me dizzy 😵‍💫 I wish they didn’t some of them sound so good

CAM was a very underrated but superb tech thriller. Glad you mentioned it. There was also a 1993 rarity called Ghost in the Machine which I rate could've made this list. Great list!!!
