While designing Fear of the Unknown, I divided the movies that were inspiring me up into six categories based on the kind of antagonist they feature. For each of those categories I came up with six example movies that I think tell the history of that kind of antagonist, talk about why I loved that movie, and if you love that movie, give a few suggestions for what to watch after it - so I actually end up talking about way more than 36 films.

The six categories are Mundane Threats, Seemingly Unstoppable Threats, Unbelievable Supernatural Threats, Cosmic Horrors, Enormous Threats, and Conspiracies. I list 6 movies in each of those categories, plus suggestions what to watch next if you liked that movie.
