Creep

One of the more polarizing films on this list (seriously, people seem to either love this movie or absolutely loathe it) is one of the biggest surprises of the year. The film stars Mark Duplass (The League, Togetherness) as a man who invites another man over to his house via a Craigslist ad to film him for a day. Creep is a found-footage film but the scenes between Duplass and Patrick Brice (who also directed) make it feel less staged. The dread slowly builds over the course of the film’s brief 78-minute runtime until it all comes to a head in the final act. It’s a deliciously creepy (sorry) film. Also, once you watch it you’ll never think of the word “peachfuzz” the same way again.
