Halloween is approaching fast, so it’s time once again to break out the horror flicks! They’re fun any time of year, but they’re especially fun when you curl up with (or hide under) a big blanket with some friends. Or alone…if you dare.
There are so many horror movies and, unfortunately, a lot of them are pretty terrible. Don’t get me wrong, I love a terrible horror movie from time to time. There is something satisfying about laughing at something that was obviously meant to terrify.
But there are only so many horror movie tropes you can see before they start to bore you. Creepy little girls in white nightgowns, flash cuts, jump scares, and oozing black substances get old. With so many sub-par films out there, it can get disappointing when you’re in the mood for a scare.
So we compiled a list of some of the best and scariest movies we’ve ever seen. We’re leaving out a lot of the classics, because you’ve probably heard of them. Instead, we’re including smaller movies and movies that might not be traditional “horror” films, but are creepy anyway.
1.) The Haunting, Robert Wise, 1963
2.) The Innkeepers, Ti West, 2011
3.) Paranormal Activity, Oren Peli, 2007
4.) The Orphanage, J.A. Bayona, 2007
5.) The Conjuring, James Wan, 2013
6.) Event Horizon, Paul W.S. Anderson, 1997
7.) Jug Face, Chad Crawford Kinkle, 2013
8.) The Moth Diaries, Mary Harron, 2011
9.) Alien, Ridley Scott, 1979
10.) “In Chambers,” Aleksander Nordaas, 2011
So grab that popcorn and turn the lights down. Actually, on better thought, you might want to keep them on for these!
