Any recommendations?

Key to this deck is taking out your opponents big creatures by forcing them into a fight they don't want; hence the inclusion of Turntimber Basilisk (Gitrog ensures that landfall is consistently enabled) and Prey Upon. This strategy is supported by Bonds of Mortality, rendering indestructible creatures or instants providing this ability useless. Sorcery cards Macabre Waltz and Disentomb along with Font of Return ensure the revival of creatures that have been sacrificed to weaken your opponent. Finally, Soul of the Harvest and Bonds of Mortality aid progress through the library.

Pretty cheap deck to build. I have included Pharika, God of Affliction in the Sideboard, with which I am considering the replacement of Soul of the Harvest.
