I recommend “The color out of space”, from an HPL story. Nic Cage in a lovecraftian story is a must watch in itself, but I have to admit that the movie is quite good (for what it is).
Strange it wasn't on the list being one of the more authentic films that project cosmic horror... One that follows Lovecraft's work, updated for the modern era...

I am not sure why it would not be on the list. Probably because it’s cosmic horror but not directly. At any rate, it’s a small gem of a movie in my opinion; it won’t win the Oscars but it’s a good watch if you like strange stuff.

I appreciated how they treated the theme of a color that can’t exist, as it’s obviously impossible to reproduce on a screen.
 
The Toolbox Murders (1978)
View attachment 2647449
Bit by bit…By bit he carved a nightmare! A serial killer, plagued by the memory of a fatal car accident, uses various tools to murder female tenants of a Los Angeles apartment complex, then abducts a teenaged girl who lives there with her family. When the police express doubt that the murders are connected to the girl’s disappearance, her brother sets out to search for her on his own... It’s got that 70’s aesthetic that I love and it’s kind of downbeat, but it’s also sleazy. Very much being late 70's exploitation.

Then you must watch: “The Red Queen Kills Seven Times”, and “Torso” (1973) which is potentially the first slasher movie ever made.
