Jordan Peele’s feature directorial debut, Get Out, is a psychological horror film centered on Chris Washington (Daniel Kaluuya), a young black photographer who’s meeting his white girlfriend’s family for the first time. It’s an uncomfortable experience from the get-go, and it only gets stranger as the film progresses. Besides directing, Peele also co-produced and wrote the film. To put it simply, Get Out is the main reason why Peele is more recognized today for his horror work than his comedic career, and its story is one that you absolutely must see for yourself.

Get Out was a huge box office success and almost universally acclaimed by critics, earning four Academy Award nominations and winning the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. In 2021, Get Out’s screenplay was declared the greatest of the 21st century so far by the Writer’s Guild of America.

One of the most influential horror movies of all time, Don Siegel’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers is a classic work of science fiction that’s been adapted, remade, satirized, and reimagined for over half a century. Starring Kevin McCarthy and Dana Wynter, the movie was adapted from Jack Finney's 1954 novel The Body Snatchers. The film is set in a California town where a secret alien invasion is underway.

Though largely ignored by critics at the time of its release, Invasion of the Body Snatchers has retrospectively been re-evaluated as a masterpiece of political allegory. Three more adaptations of the source material followed over the years: the Philip Kaufman remake Invasion of the Body Snatchers in 1978 (which is also available on Prime Video), Abel Ferrara’s Body Snatchers in 1993, and Oliver Hirschbiegel’s The Invasion in 2007.

Part coming-of-age story and part vampire horror, Tomas Alfredson’s 2008 Swedish film Let the Right One In is set in a Stockholm suburb in the 1980s, following a bullied 12-year-old boy (Kåre Hedebrant) who dreams of taking revenge on his tormentors. He befriends a strange girl (Lina Leandersson) and falls in love with her, only to discover that she is, in fact, a vampire. The film’s screenplay was written by John Ajvide Lindqvist, who also wrote the 2004 novel that the movie is based on. A refreshing take on the vampire romance subgenre, Let the Right One In is spooky and bittersweet in equal parts.

Before its theatrical release, Let the Right One In received numerous accolades from film festivals around the world, with overwhelmingly positive critical reception. An American remake written and directed by Matt Reeves (The Batman) titled Let Me In was released in 2010, with Chloë Grace Moretz and Kodi Smit-McPhee in the lead roles.

Directed by Nahnatchka Khan (Always Be My Maybe) and written by David Matalon, Sasha Perl-Raver, and Jen D'Angelo, Totally Killer is a slasher comedy that stars Kiernan Shipka (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) as teenager Jamie, who’s sick and tired of her overprotective mother, Pam (Julie Bowen). 35 years before the events of the film, a serial killer brutally murdered three of Pam’s friends, which left her deeply traumatized. In the present day, the killer returns, murdering Pam and setting his sights on Jamie, who accidentally uses her friend’s time machine to go back to before the killings first took place. Now stuck in an unfamiliar time, Jamie must team up with the younger version of her mom (played by Olivia Holt) to catch the killer before he strikes.

Filled to the brim with 80s nostalgia, Totally Killer can be summed up as Back to the Future meets Halloween, combining suspenseful horror scenes with cheesy, light-hearted comedy. The film received largely positive reviews, and while it’s hardly perfect, Totally Killer is a great choice for a fun movie night at home.

Runtime

A sci-fi horror comedy, M3GAN is a new take on the killer robot story, examining the well-tread genre through the lens of parasocial relationships and childhood development. It’s also exciting, violent, and hilarious. The film stars Allison Williams as Gemma, a roboticist who works for a high-tech toy company. After her sister and husband die in a car accident, their eight-year-old daughter Cady (Violet McGraw) is sent to live with Gemma, who struggles to connect with the child. Instead of finding a healthy way to bond, Gemma introduces Cady to her newest creation, an autonomous robot doll powered by cutting-edge artificial intelligence called M3GAN (played by Amie Donald and voiced by Jenna Davis). As Cady and M3GAN grow closer, the robot becomes increasingly and ruthlessly protective of the child, putting Gemma, Cady, and everyone they know in grave danger.

M3GAN was wildly successful with audiences, going viral on social media even before it was released. The film also received acclaim from critics, who praised its balance of chills and silliness. Prime Video currently has two versions of the movie available: the original PG-13 cut and the unrated version, which features more gore and profanity. The best part is that both versions are equally entertaining, and if you’re in the mood for a rollercoaster horror thriller that doesn’t take itself too seriously, then you can’t go wrong with either option.

Runtime
93 minutes

Despite what the name sounds like, Stephen Cognetti’s Hell House LLC is not a documentary: it’s a found footage — and completely fictional — film. The movie is set in the small upstate New York town of Abaddon, which is haunted by the mysterious deaths of 15 visitors and employees in one night at a mysterious hotel, which was set up as a haunted house attraction called (you guessed it) Hell House. A documentary crew heads out there to try to find the cause of the deaths, and along the way, they find photographs, film footage... and the only known survivor, who finally reveals the truth about what happened.

A chilling and effective addition to the found footage subgenre, Hell House LLC received generally favorable reviews and spawned a franchise of its own. The movie has so far had two sequels, Hell House LLC II: The Abaddon Hotel (2018) and Hell House LLC III: Lake of Fire (2019), and a spinoff film released in 2023 called Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor.

Knock at the Cabin received generally favorable reviews, with Collider’s Ross Bonaime calling it Shyamalan’s “biggest dissection of faith in years”. Featuring an unprecedented performance from Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy), Knock at the Cabin is a thrilling apocalyptic psychological film that’s worth checking out.

Smile is an unsettling supernatural thriller about trauma and the ways it moves from one person to another in an endless cycle. The film is written and directed by Parker Finn, who also created the short film Laura Hasn't Slept, which serves as a prologue to this movie. Smile follows Rose Cotter (Sosie Bacon), a therapist who witnesses the suicide of one of her patients. Soon, her reality begins to warp and crumble as a strange smiling curse invades her life.

Finn does a phenomenal job playing with audience expectations in Smile. The film’s unreliable narrative, delivered through the traumatized main character, is just ambiguous enough that the audience has room to speculate about the supernatural elements and engage in spirited debate long after their viewing. Smile received generally positive reviews from critics upon its release, and it currently has a sequel in the works that’s scheduled to come out on October 18th, 2024.

Nanny is the feature film debut of writer/director Nikyatu Jusu. The movie focuses on Aisha (Anna Diop), an illegal immigrant working as a nanny for a New York family. Aisha hopes to earn enough money to bring her young son and cousin to America, but the story quickly spins out into a realm of spirits and the supernatural. Plagued by visions and the feeling of drowning in both her dreams and waking life, Aisha has to dig into what’s causing these attacks on her psyche while trying to care for the American family’s child.

With Nanny, Jusu delivers a fever dream of horror imagery that is unsettling and evocative. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival to critical acclaim and won the Grand Jury Prize in the US Dramatic Competition. Nanny is the first horror film — and Nikyatu Jusu the second Black female filmmaker — ever to win the award.

Run Sweetheart Run originally premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2020, but due to delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the film wasn’t released to the public until its arrival on Prime Video in 2022. The film is an ideal watch for horror fans, oozing with excitement while lightly layering in a dark message.

Supernatural things abound, and it’s up to Abby to save her.

Though the movie’s reviews are a bit mixed, it’s still thoroughly entertaining from start to finish. As silly as it is scary, My Best Friend’s Exorcism is a fun watch if you’re in the mood for something a little spooky and a lot of fun.

Directed and co-written by Nia DaCosta (Little Woods), Candyman is a sequel to the 1992 horror classic of the same name. The movie follows Anthony McCoy (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II), a young visual artist with forgotten ties to the events of the first Candyman movie who finds himself drawn towards the urban legend of the Candyman. Co-starring Teyonah Parris (WandaVision), the film was co-written by Win Rosenfeld and Jordan Peele (Get Out).

Far more than a legacy sequel, Candyman is the continuation of a multi-generational story rooted in a horrific narrative stemming from America’s racist history. The film expands upon the original mythology of the property, taking place in the same place where the journey began while reinvigorating it for a contemporary audience. The result is a modern horror film with a thought-provoking story that’s achieved both critical and commercial success. Candyman is currently available free with ads via Amazon Freevee.

This South Korean zombie flick was critically acclaimed for the way it reinvigorated the subgenre, going on to win a host of awards. In the years since its release, Train to Busan has also evolved into a franchise, getting an animated prequel movie in 2016 called Seoul Station and a standalone sequel in 2020 called Peninsula. With plenty of action and gore, this frenetic portrayal of zombie madness is a ride you don’t want to miss.

Chopping Mall is a bizarre piece of techno-horror filmmaking, co-written and directed by Jim Wynorski. Starring Kelli Maroney, Tony O'Dell, Barbara Crampton, and more, Chopping Mall is ‘80s to the utmost, complete with the neon, the hair, and the overtly sensationalist nudity. But in the place of your average slasher killer, the film pits a gang of lusty teens against a trio of deadly, malfunctioning mall security robots. Locked in a high-tech shopping mall overnight with laser-eyed murderbots rolling up behind their every move, the teens arm up and fight back against the quintessential ‘80s electronic score.

Whacky and unafraid to be more fun than scary, Chopping Mall is a delightful B-movie where people say things like "I'm just not used to being chased around a mall in the middle of the night by killer robots" with a straight face. The whole film has that cheeky self-awareness, including some none-too-subtle genre references, even featuring one of Eating Raoul duo Paul Bartel and Mary Woronov's 17 film cameos as The Blands. Funny and endlessly entertaining, Chopping Mall is a perfect throwback midnight movie. The film is currently available free with ads via Amazon Freevee.

An indie sci-fi horror film, The Vast of Night is set in 1950s New Mexico, following a switchboard operator (Sierra McCormick) and a radio DJ (Jake Horowitz) as they investigate a strange sound coming through the radio during a big high school basketball game. The movie was director Andrew Patterson’s feature film debut. Patterson also co-wrote the film with Craig W. Sanger under the pseudonym James Montague

Critically acclaimed and pleasantly surprising, Vast of Night is a great watch for fans of classic sci-fi. It’s Spielbergian in that it draws influence from films like E.T. and Close Encounters of the Third Kind but also has a voice and style all its own. The wildly compelling screenplay is full of delightfully crackerjack dialogue that evokes screwball comedies of the ‘40s and ‘50s, while Patterson’s direction favors long takes and unique shots that lay the intrigue on thick as the story plays out entirely in real-time. Add in a layer of Twilight Zone-esque terror, and The Vast of Night is a film you won’t soon forget.

Acclaimed director Luca Guadagnino brings all his sensuality and artistry to 2018's Suspiria. Based on the 1977 Italian film of the same name, Suspiria features talents like Dakota Johnson, Mia Goth, Elena Fokina, Chloë Grace Moretz, and Tilda Swinton, who takes on three different roles in the film. The movie follows a young American woman (Johnson) who enrolls at a prestigious Berlin dance academy, only to discover that it’s run by a coven of witches.

More of a sibling film to Dario Argento's iconic horror classic than an outright remake, Suspiria depicts its powerful magical darkness through the context of generational strife and fascist powerplay, embedding the supernatural in the psychological to extraordinary results. Suspiria is a phantasmagoria of violence, magic, and movement that feels pulled from the old ways of some unknown ritual. Art, dance, horror, and the human spirit come out to play in Guadagnino’s coven, conjuring an uncanny feeling of true witchcraft that’s as stirring and profound as it is occasionally terrifying. Give yourself to the dance, indeed, because Guadagnino’s film gives you no other choice.

The zombies in George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead are called “ghouls,” but make no mistake — this is the film that created the movie zombie as we know it: a blank, thoughtless creature who lumbers around with a vacant stare, barely retaining any semblance of humanity. starring Duane Jones and Judith O'Dea, Night of the Living Dead focuses on seven people trapped in a farmhouse with reanimated corpses inexplicably trying to get at them.

While the thrill of zombie movies has generally been in seeing how our heroes with brains dispatch them with great efficiency and cruelty, Romero’s legendary film goes beyond violence to explore themes of prejudice, xenophobia, and selfishness. By the end, it wouldn’t be too surprising if you feel more sympathy for the “ghouls” than most of the humans. Highly controversial and polarizing at the time of its release, Night of the Living Dead is now considered one of the most iconic films of all time and a trailblazer for the horror genre.

A coming-of-age tale via lycanthropy, John Fawcett’s Ginger Snaps tells an intimate story about two death-obsessed, co-dependent sisters who are slowly torn apart when the older girl starts to change after a werewolf attack. Starring Emily Perkins and Katharine Isabelle, Fawcett’s spin on the werewolf mythos was one of the early adopters of the 21st-century trend to address female puberty by way of monstrous transformation (see also: Teeth, Wildling, Revenge, and many others), and it does so with great effect, but it's also a downright well-made horror film.

Ginger Snaps was critically successful despite making a fairly modest amount at the box office. In the years since its release, it has gained a larger cult audience. Ginger Snaps is an oft-forgotten modern monster classic and easily one of the best movies ever made in its subgenre. A sequel called Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed and a prequel, Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning, were both released in 2004, with the former getting a theatrical run and the latter being released direct-to-DVD.

Nicholas Winding Refn’s The Neon Demon is an exceptionally polarizing film that isn’t for the faint of heart. Elle Fanning stars as Jesse, a manipulative, underaged monster in the making who has "that thing" everyone wants, and she knows it. Rapidly climbing the ranks of the fashion industry, Jesse believes her own hype and goes full Narcissus, drawing the ire of three experienced industry pros who envy her youth, easy beauty, and immediate success.

It’s got beautiful women basking in blood, glorious Technicolor visions of cannibalism and self-worship, and way too much necrophilia. Like Only God Forgives before it, Refn’s Neon Demon was jeered at Cannes and met with split response from critics and moviegoers alike. It’s certainly a divisive movie: explicit, nebulous, and seemingly dedicated to making the audience as uncomfortable as possible, as often as possible. It's also staggeringly beautiful, but leave it to Refn to make a shallow movie about the pitfalls of being shallow.

The feature film debut of director and co-writer Jim Hosking, The Greasy Strangler is decidedly not for everyone. The movie stars Sky Elobar as Big Brayden and Michael St. Michaels as his father, Big Ronnie. Father and son live and work together, running a disco-themed walking location tour. Their lives take a turn when Brayden starts a relationship with Janet (Elizabeth De Razzo), which prompts Ronnie to compete for her. Meanwhile, a grease-covered serial killer stalks the night, strangling the town’s residents.

The film received rather mixed reviews from critics when it first premiered, and it’s easy to see why — it’s absurd, unapologetic, and indecent by just about every conventional standard, but the beauty of The Greasy Strangler is the fact that it doesn’t care about conventional standards at all. Forget about photoshopping, narrative guidebooks, and all the little safety boxes that have to be checked off when a film tries to be a four-quadrant picture. The Greasy Strangler feels like Grindhouse incarnate, a midnight movie sprung from the very soul of midnight movies to make you cringe and guffaw and quote one-liners you’ll probably never be able to get out of your head. You can currently watch The Greasy Strangler free with ads via Amazon Freevee.
