Another "dinner party gone awry," this time thanks to a mysterious comet that passes overhead during a friendly get-together in the suburbs. Suddenly, a power outage leads the group to visit the one house on the block that still has power. Thing is, that house is the one they were just in, and everyone's still inside. That's only the beginning of a weirdo sci-fi journey that isn't so much scary as it is creepy and meticulously crafted. The twists in this one will make you gasp.
A funny, dark, and beautifully made throwback to old-school filmmaking. This was released in 2016, but it's already a classic among horror fans.
Arguably the greatest slasher movie of all time, Halloween is bleak, brutal, and economic in its storytelling and kills. Many sequels, reboots, and franchise attempts later, John Carpenter's film (and score) remain the gold standard in the "teens gettin' stabbed" department.
Be careful what you wish for, especially when you're a group of traumatized children on the run from a Mexican drug cartel. Tigers Are Not Afraid is unapologetically difficult, setting a fantastical ghost story against the backdrop of the 2006 Mexican Drug Wars. It's honestly something special.
