Elevator Scum

An utterly detestable human being. Compared to the scum, garbage and other horrendous substances only found at the bottom of an elevator shaft.

Arguably used in the Dot-Com era to refer to backstabbing partners, cheating bf/gf and the sort.

elevated horror

A subgenre of "respectable" horror movies which began in the late 2010s. They typically carry a social or moral message and are gloomy, gory, pretentious, and aimed at an audience more interested in queer/feminist subtext than scares and fun.

Expect boilerplate Tumblr politics, graphic violence but no female nudity, and laudatory reviews describing them as "slow burns", "giallo homages", or "bonkers".

Examples: Get Out, Us, The Babadook, Hereditary, Midsommar, It Comes At Night, Suspiria 2018, Candyman 2021, The Lighthouse, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Saint Maud, Possessor, Last Night in Soho, Titane, Midnight Mass, ect.
Let's go see the new elevated horror movie by Ari Aster, everyone on Letterboxd says it's a totally bonkers slow burn!
