1. THE EXORCIST [Horror movies]

The exorcist was directed by William Friedkin and released in 1973. Despite its age, this film remains a relatively terrifying and well-made classic horror film. Based on the novel of the same name, The Exorcist follows the story of a 12-year-old girl who has been possessed by a demon.

Grieved by the turn of events, the girl's mother has no choice but to seek an exorcism from the Catholic Church. Two priests come to the aid of the girl. However, getting the demon out of the girl is not an easy task.

When the film was released in 1973, it quickly attracted an audience and certainly made an impression. In fact, some of the scenes seemed so realistic that viewers had adverse physical reactions. Despite audience reactions, the film was still rated R-rated by the MPAA rating board.

The rating, and the fact that the film was extremely shocking for its time, caused some countries to ban the film for obscenity. Despite the controversy, The Exorcist became the first horror movie to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture and ended up securing the Best Sound Mix and Best Adapted Screenplay. Today, there are very few people, horror fanatics or not, who will not recognize The Exorcist theme.

3. A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET [Best Horror Movies]

When it comes to choosing the best horror movie, it's pretty hard to ignore the classics. A Nightmare on Elm Street was released in 1984, almost forty years ago, and directed by Wes Craven. The film had incredible success with several sequels, including A Nightmare on Elm Street: Freddy’s Revenge and New Nightmare, and it even spawned a franchise with TV series novels and even crossover movies like Freddy Vs. Jason. If you ask most adults today, and even many children, they have definitely heard of Freddy Kruger. However, this can only be due to its popularity as a Halloween costume.

The original story is based on a monster, Freddy Kruger, who after being burned alive for murdering a child, becomes a mixture of avenging spirit and demonic entity. Determined to keep killing, Freddy targets a group of teenagers.

Perhaps the scariest thing about Freddy Kruger is his tendency to hit in dreams. For most people, dreaming tends to be a mysterious experience at best, regardless of whether or not they involve the potential for murder, making Freddy's ability to kill in the dream landscape quite terrifying. Perhaps it was this fact that gained Freddy's notoriety as a classic horror figure.

The film became the franchise, which then received five subsequent releases, including a new 1990 version directed by another horror icon Tom Savini.

The story follows a couple who are trapped in a rural home as their quiet neighborhood turns into a breeding ground for cannibalistic corpses.

While Night of the Living Dead may seem a bit old school to younger audiences, it's definitely a horror classic and, in many ways, the great-grandfather of zombie movies. As one of the first zombie movies, Night of the Living Dead brought the idea of meat ...

eating zombies on the big screen. Most of our favorite zombies may not be here today if Night of the Living Dead hadn't been successful.

While the special effects are pretty rudimentary, based on its release in the 1960s, the movie is still pretty creepy and definitely a must-see for zombie movie fans. If you can't deal with black and white and want something a little more advanced, check out the remake from the 1990s.

9. CARRIE [Best Horror Movies 2019]

If you haven't heard of Carrie, you're definitely missing out! Released in 1976, Carrie was based on a Stephen King's novel of the same name, and quickly caught the attention of fans. The film was actually cited as an example of great book-to-film adaptations, which historically is a rather difficult title to achieve.

Mixing horror, the supernatural, and the terrors of bullying in high school still resonates today with viewers. In fact, Carrie was one of the first popular movies in the United States to be based almost directly on the negative effects and consequences of bullying.

Carrie follows the story of Carrie White, a 16-year-old teenager who lives with her ultra-religious mother. While things are difficult at home, things at school are even worse, as Carrie is ruthlessly bullied by her peers. The positive side of Carrie is the fact that she appears to possess telekinetic powers. While Carrie fears her abilities at first, she soon begins to use her new power to take control and take revenge.

Carrie is quite unique as a horror character because she is so identifiable. Life is difficult when you are sixteen years old, and having strict parents in addition to the problems at school can make things even more difficult. So when Carrie has a supernatural collapse in her high school, it's hard to decide whether to be scared or sympathetic.

The film was actually remade in 2013, which also features a large cast and modernized special effects. However, we are still going to go with the classic in this case. Of course, you can always see both!

10. IT [Good Horror Movies on Netflix]

When a movie is based on a Stephen King novel, you know it is going to be very good or very bad. Now, depending on how you feel about the book-to-movie adaptations, you may have hated or loved this one.

IT, or IT: Chapter One, is a supernatural horror movie based on a 1986 novel of the same name. The film first aired in 2017 and quickly became a huge success. Follow the story of a group of children in Derry, Maine, as they try to unravel a series of mysterious disappearances that have affected their small town.

The movie actually begins with a boy, George, who follows a sailboat that his brother Bill had made while sailing down the drain. By following the paper boat, George ends up meeting a clown named Pennywise, who prompts the boy to go down the drain and play. The clown eats the child, which, for the clown, is simply a habit.

For most children, clowns are fun or somewhat scary characters. After all, clowns are adults in costumes and a face full of makeup. Pennywise is definitely an intimidating figure, especially when you consider his multiple rows of sharp teeth. The film promises a sequel, which hopefully will enjoy the same success.

Finding a good horror movie is pretty easy. However, finding the best horror movie can be quite challenging. This of course is because there are so many amazing movies to choose from. When reviewing the best options, keep in mind that there are still many more movies to watch.

A short horror story [Horror Movies 2020]

Terror first appeared in the form of silent films in the late 1890s with works by French filmmaker Georges Melles. While the first horror movies were silent, as well as black and white, their intriguing storylines caught the attention of large audiences.

Soon, best-selling horror books like Dracula and Frankenstein became adaptations for the big screen. As movie production evolved, horror movies saw an increase in gripping sound and better clothing. The 1960s is a remarkable decade in horror movie history, due in part to the release of Michael Powell's Peeping Tom movie. While previous horror movies focused primarily on the supernatural like vampires, ghosts, and fantasy themes, Peeping Tom was the first psychological thriller. Also, during this decade, we see the appearance of the first zombie movie, Night of the Living Dead

The 1970s and 1980s marked a change in the horror genre as costumes and makeup continued to improve. At this time, there was also a focus on violence. As such, this is definitely where more blood and blood begins to enter. Furthermore, horror movies also began to discard the trope of good that always defeats evil.

The horror continued to grow and change as the special effects allowed for even more compelling scenes to be created. The 1990s and early 2000s saw a mix of classic remakes and new movies, which still continues today.

How to Choose a movie [Upcoming Horror Movies]

Modern horror movies come in a variety of flavors. If you're in the mood for a horror movie, it's definitely useful to choose whether you want to watch a slasher, something with a supernatural element, a psychological thriller, or something involving a mix of all three.

If you have a title in mind, you may also need to decide whether you want to see an original or a remake. Also, note that some horror classics have been remade multiple times over several decades. An advantage of seeing the previous version is that you can appreciate its position as a classic. One drawback to viewing an earlier version is the fact that cinematography, costumes, and special effects may be lacking simply due to limitations in related technology.
