Ok I guess this is kind of horror specific butttttt
Cursed films is a show two seasons every episode deals with the making and BTS of a different “cursed“ movie
William friedkin leap of faith documentary is just so nice it’s like 90 minutes or whatever of him just talking about how the exorcist came to be it’s very soothing
Hearts of darkness about heart of darkness also v good

Some of the heaviest hitters:
* Season 1, Episode 4, Jenifer, dir. Dario Argento — a married detective rescues a seemingly developmentally disabled young woman (who has a beautiful body and a disfigured face) from being murdered. He finds out that she was sent to live at a mental hospital because she has nobody to care for her, so he takes her in to live with his family and develops a psychosexual obsession with her. This is adapted from a 1974 comic by the same name.
* Season 1, Episode 8, Cigarette Burns, dir. John Carpenter — Norman Reedus plays a movie theater owner who’s grieving the loss of his wife to suicide and needs money to pay back his father-in-law. He’s hired by a wealthy collector played by Udo Kier to find a lost cursed film, La Fin Absolue du Monde. It’s Carpenter’s goriest and arguably scariest work.
* Season 1, Episode 10, Sick Girl, dir. Lucky McKee — two shy quirked up weird girls, unlucky in love but with so much to give—an entomologist, Ida (played by Angela Bettis, star of McKee’s May!) and an artist, Misty—find each other after Ida receives a strange package with an unidentifiable insect. They feel a connection and plan to go on a first date but Misty gets bitten by the bug and starts acting… off…
* Season 1, Episode 13, Imprint, dir. Takashi Miike — one of my favorite horror films EVER. It was so graphic and disturbing that Showtime decided not to air it and to just release it on DVD. In Meiji era Japan, an American journalist goes to a brothel on a remote island to search for Komomo, the love of his life, a Japanese sex worker he left behind years ago. A mysterious disfigured woman tells him the tale of Komomo’s fate…

which I had shared with friends last October and I thought I saved it somewhere in my Notes app but it’s lost in the ether :( I’m a huge horror fan and former obsessive. I’ll recommend just a few:
Tod Browning’s Freaks (1932) — watched this on TCM the morning before my like tenth birthday party and it rocked my world forever… sad and disturbing
The Others (2001) — gorgeous gothic atmospheric soooo creepy and Nicole Kidman is a vision
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me (1992) — details the last days of a troubled beautiful teenage girl named Laura Palmer… heartbreaking examination of traumatic cycles and evil forces. I would recommend that you watch the show first though 🤓
Barbarian (2022) — this goes against like everything you said you wanted but I have to put it on here because it’s so scary and expertly paced and filled me with dread but it’s also hilarious! It has to be my favorite recently released horror movie
