Horror is so fun cause it can be so lowbrow but also so highbrow. Imo you could honestly do a read about femininity with almost any horror movie. Heres a bunch of ones that came to mind just sorta based on what you already listed or what came to mind.
1. Suspiria (1977 and 2018 versions)
2. The First Omen (just came out)
3. Immaculate (also just came out)
4. Rosemary’s baby.
5. Halloween (talking about this movie and female virginity has been done tho)
6. Friday the 13th (I think you could do something interesting with the twist of the first movie)
7. Alien
8. It Follows
9. The Descent
10. The Hunger
11. The Handmaiden
12. Scream
Sorta just depends on exactly what you mean by “femininity” and what interests you.

Suspiria (the OG 70's version) is such a good avante garde horror film to introduce urself to that side of cinema

Honestly I could go on forever but these are the first ones I could think of… a related post should display below this one with some of my other horror recommendations
* Ernest Scared Stupid… very goofy. you can actually watch it in its entirety on YouTube… Eartha Kitt is in it…
* Scooby Doo and the Witch’s Ghost; Scooby Doo on Zombie Island; Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School — i was obsessed with Scooby Doo as a kid and these still hold up…
* Return to Oz — this movie is so fucked up and underrated. starring THORA BIRCH
* The Craft; Ginger Snaps — obviously. Listing these together as they’re both angsty teen movies
* American Mary — so iconic and very gory
* The Autopsy of Jane Doe — so scary!!!
* Red Rooms — creepiest movie I’ve seen all year but not in the way you might think…
* Malignant — best movie
* Suspiria remake and original — tbh i prefer the remake but the original is a vibe
* Oddity — fun and atmospheric
* Cure — meditative, deeply unsettling, even hypnotic one could say…
* Sleepy Hollow — incredible gothic Halloween vibes
* Strange Darling — FINALLY just released to streaming today I haven’t seen it but I’m including it on this list on a provisional basis because I’ve heard amazing things
* The Others — Nicole Kidman spooky period ghost film 😍
* Vampire’s Kiss — he’s a vampire!!
* Resident Evil Village — not a movie but I know you play games and this one is so silly and fun
* 🚨 UMM also the Silent Hill 2 remake is coming out next week 🚨

Sometimes you can just exist. you don’t (hopefully) need 50 hustles. You don’t need to be a writer and musician and artist and podcaster and influencer and girlboss or whatever. you don’t even need to signal how cool or smart or attractive you are. I know it’s hard cause I think our society incentives (forces?) people to be “on” all the time, but it’s probably better for your own sake to just exist for yourself and your love ones and to adjust your expectations of what a successful or meaningful life is.
Sorry for being pedantic, just know a lot of friends and family my age or younger that seem to be struggling right now in all sorts of ways. Just know, regardless of what anyone says or even what you say or do, that you guys have inherent dignity and you are worth something

Eat yogurt, kimchi/sauerkraut, miso, kefir, kombucha, pickles, certain soft cheeses cause they’re good for you
I never had a problem shitting I just like funky foods and pretending my gut is a nightclub where all the bacteria are dancing and having a good time like it’s osmosis jones or something
