chiller

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'horror movie' is the definition.
'chiller' can be an answer for 'movie' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'horror' bit.

'student in chile right?' is the wordplay.
'student' becomes 'l' (as in L-plates for learner drivers).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'right?' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'l' placed into 'chile' is 'chille'.
'chille'+'r'='CHILLER'

'with' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chiller that I've seen before include "Cooling device" , "part of fridge" , "Scary book" , "Cold cabinet" , "Book that arouses terror" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
