5 Deep Cut Horror Movies to Seek Out in September 2024

New month, new horror recommendations from Deep Cuts Rising. This installment features five selections reflecting the month of September 2024.
Regardless of how they came to be here, or what they’re about, these past movies can generally be considered overlooked, forgotten or unknown.
This month’s offerings include an ’80s slasher, a Mexican sci-fi story, and a twisty thriller about family.
Humongous (1982)
Pictured: Janet Julian in Humongous (1982).
Directed by Paul Lynch.
Humongous begins on Labor Day (September 2) in the 1940s before flash-forwarding to the present day. Once we move into the modern era of the story (and past a rather brutal opening sequence), this Canadian production slips into familiar territory. The setting of an island is, admittedly, different than the usual school or creepy old house, but Paul Lynch’s horror follow-up to Prom Night is still formulaic.
Even so, Humongous passes for a watchable, if not low-stakes and oldfangled slasher.
