Alien/Aliens is a given for most people. I have been watching Event Horizon during the spooky season for years. What are some of your favorite books and movies with a horror/psychological thriller lean?

SOMA by frictional games.

It explores some of the usual questions about what exactly the human mind might be, if it ever becomes possible to scan, simulate, copy and transfer consciousness.

But it does so in video game form, in a way that makes you face those questions from a visceral, personal, first hand experience perspective.

It's a science fiction masterpiece.
