4. Tangerine
Shot using iPhones and starring a pair of trans women in the lead

The teen horror genre was given new life by director David Robert Mitchell in a movie that owes much to the horror classics of the
‘80s while managing to feel completely fresh. Features the year’s
most memorable soundtrack, throbbing John Carpenter-esque
synths courtesy of Disasterpeace.
