It takes a particular type of person to love horror movies. In these films, no topic seems taboo: self-mutilation, sadistic people wanting to satisfy their blood lust, demonic possession, ghosts, and hauntings.
Within this genre, some movies are renowned for scaring the life out of the audience. Here is our pick of the 13 scariest movies to watch.
The Exorcist (1973)
Renowned as the scariest movie ever. It is full of terrifying moments. The head-twisting scene is just creepy. Try and watch it alone at night…with the lights off.
The Woman in Black (2012)
The Woman in Black starts with three girls jumping out the window as a lady watches on from the shadows. Throughout the film, the atmosphere is continuously eerie. There is a constant feeling that someone is lurking in each scene.
Funny Games (1997)
We all like to have a moment away from the busyness of life. However, when your retreat is disturbed by sadistic individuals, you want to go back home. If you can…
Pet Sematary (1989)
It can be devastating when our pets pass away. We want our furry family members to be with us forever. In Pet Sematary, it’s not only pets that come back from the dead.
Poltergeist (1982)
A classic film that spawned the phrase “They’re here..” One of the scariest moments involves a soft toy clown (clowns are always creepy).
The Evil Dead (1981)
The Evil Dead is another classic film amongst horror fans. This horror-comedy gets increasingly terrifying. The gore will have you looking away.
The Ring (2002)
A psychological horror film that delivers scares throughout the movie. Samara coming out of the TV may scar you psychologically for life!
The Strangers (2008)
The idea of random people tormenting someone in a house isn’t a new concept. However, with The Strangers, there is a realism behind the film that makes it frightening.
It Follows (2014)
Ever feel you are being followed? It Follows plays on this fear. The atmosphere of the movie is what makes it so frightening.
I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)
Hit-and-run accidents can traumatize everyone involved. The driver of the car panics and leaves the scene, vowing never to say anything to anyone. I Know What You Did Last Summer plays on guilt, making the movie chilling.
Creep (2014)
Found footage films can be a tired genre. How many of these have popped up since The Blair Witch Project? Yet, with Creep, this style of the movie works. The dread, psychological tension and the fact that the film’s incidents are believable make this scary.
Would You Rather (2012)
Being paid to attend a dinner party may sound like a dream. But there are always catches. The sadism and horror are pointless, except that they appease the dinner host’s psychopathology. Some genuinely terrifying moments as we see what lengths people may go to when pushed.
Insidious (2010)
A haunted house, ghosts, and demons. Insidious has it all and makes use of the material in a way that will scare the hell out of you.
