Any good current horror movies or books/comic? It seems horror has been infected with wokeness. I saw an article about Jordan Peele doing Candyman. Sad thing is he could probably write a good story but he is obsessed with race. The fawning articles about him and Ava Duvernay are absurd

Hereditary and the VVitch were outstanding, though I've known people to feel they were pretentious. Really depends on your tastes, of course. It Follows was a blast. There's a remake of Suspiria out there that's kind of a head scratcher but it has some great body horror.
I don't really follow horror books or comics, but Clive Barker's older stuff is phenomenal. He's got some of the best prose in horror fiction since Arthur Machen.
You really should read the Exorcist. I think it's every bit as good as the movie. And Exorcist III is a criminally underrated movie, if you haven't seen it.
Angel Heart is one of my favorite movies, and it's a weird hybrid of detective noir, period piece, and horror. Great performances all around. The book it's based on, Falling Angel, diverges from the movie quite a bit and is extremely enjoyable.
Oh and go check out Christopher Odd's channel. He does some great let's plays of horror games like Alien Isolation and Resi 7.
