I Bury the Living

Tasked with managing a cemetery, a man discovers a horrifying power—every time he marks a burial plot with a black pin, someone dies. As guilt and fear spiral out of control, he becomes obsessed with the idea that he can decide who lives and who dies. This psychological horror movie unfolds in creeping dread, drawing viewers into a minimalist thriller where madness may be more terrifying than murder.

My take

A haunting psychological descent into guilt and godlike power. Perfect for viewers who crave slow-burn dread where the real horror lives in a man's fractured mind—not jump scares, but creeping inevitability.
