Thank you! Yeah, I can give you some: In terms of British folk horror, there are also films like Murrain, The Woman in Black, Penda's Fen (very subversive), and other films by Lawrence Gordon Clarke who did a bunch of these ghost stories for Christmas (such as Stigma or A Warning to the Curious) For the more fairytale influenced Eastern European folk horror you could look at Viy (1967), Beauty and the Beast (1978), Savage Hunt of King Stakh (getting a remaster soon I hear), Shadows of our Forgotten Ancestors, Little Otik, Valerie and Her Week of Wonders, Story of the forest: Mavka There's also Baltic and Nordic folk horror, films like The White Reindeer, Juniper Tree, November (2018) In terms of American, I'm a massive fan of Clearcut for how complex and powerful it is, navigates that dichotomy of native american vengeance beautifully. There's also a lot of Asian folk horror. Prominent Japanese films such as Onibaba, Kwaidan, Ugetsu, or something like the Korean film The Wailing
