Any good recommendations? We just finished the exorcist (only 2 seasons... Ugh) and we are starting ahs Roanoke. I had kind of gotten away from ahs because it got less creepy after a few seasons, but Roanoke seems ok so far. Any other recommendations?

I have not watched but how about American Horror Story which is/was and FX Channel show that has more than 6 seasons since 2011.

 

OOops.  Edit.  I see that the ahs you referenced is American Horror Story.  As stated, I have never watched and am not "in the know."

Roanoke was done big brother reality show style. I think reality shows are the third stupidest thing ever invented, so even as an AHS fan it was hard to finish. 

Amazon Prime has an absolutely staggering collection of horror, cheesy, B grade, C grade, 60s to modern movies and TV shows available, I can't really run off titles, I just pick whatever looks best at the time. 

Orphan Black was pretty good, if I remember correctly.

Seconded. Black Mirror is not only creepy it's plausible which makes the stories kind of uncomfortable. The one with the Prime Mister and the pig really nailed it.

We watched the first season of Black mirror when it first came out. Brilliant show. Also watched electric dream scapes (I think it's called that?) It's basically a slightly less messed up black mirror. And it's on prime.

Not necessarily creepy but cool, technical and plausible is Orphan Black.  It's a BBC award winner that has multiple seasons available on Amazon.

I’m in the middle of watching From Dusk til Dawn: The Series on Netflix, but it leans a bit more action than creepy.  Still not all bad.

Penny Dreadful is pretty good.

I've watched the following complete series multiple times:

Orphan Black
Dark Matter (more sci-fi, less thriller)
Black Mirror (modern day twilight zone)
Carnivale (amazing dust-bowl period piece about supernatural things)
The new Battlestar Galactica.  (really gritty reboot)

Fantastic show. The lead actress is nothing short of amazing in this.

On Netflix check out a German series called Dark. IMHO it crushes Stranger Things like a grape. 

You can turn on an English audio track but the voiceover actors are pretty bad. If you can handle subtitles, that’s the way to go.

No, but if you could I'd watch the E36 M3 out of it.  I loved that show as a kid.

wife and i just started watching "The Red Road". Its a cross between a Red locals vs. white cops thriller, with a little drug king pin action, and some paranormal and mental illness thrown in. 

i like it.

The episodes on Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster scared the tar outta me watching this as a kid.

Fantastic show. Highly recommend. Dont know if I'd call it creepy, more soulful and moving. It's a great use of fiction to explore something we all must face sooner or later.

EDIT: "Enjoy."  I really enjoy.  Not "Engine." Must be some vehicular Freudian slip there....

AHS, Black Mirror, Dark... everything I've watched lately I'd consider "creepy".
