May 20, 2025 -

Hellhole (2022) on Netflix went from average to amazing with that shocking conclusion.

The 40 Best Horror Movies on Netflix Right Now (November 2025)
November 13, 2025 - To offer more in the way of plot details might spoil the movie’s strange, beguiling combination of tripwire-tight suspense and episodic wandering. Suffice to say that some of the most obvious candidates for set pieces do not come to pass, and that the film occasionally resembles an eerie fairy tale. —Jesse Hassenger · Year: 2022 Director: Parker Finn Stars: Sosie Bacon, Kyle Gallner Rating: R · Smile may not impress true students of the horror genre, adherents to the dark tradition, but for novices and the easily scared or sensitive, it’s a gruesome and macabre thrill ride that tries to talk about trauma as its characters struggle to unpack it.

November 11, 2025 - When they're hired by a woman (Celia Imrie) to rid an orphanage of spirits, Angela starts to actually see things she wishes she couldn't. While the ghosts of dead children are creepy enough, the film is also about the horrors that real people inflict, too. ... The 2022 British film Host (not to be confused with Bong Joon Ho's The Host or the 2013 film of the same name starring Saoirse Ronan) is very much of its time. A lockdown film made during the height of COVID-19, it was shot entirely over Zoom. Returning to that bleak time might be enough to make some people panic, but the concept is actually what makes the movie so compelling.

Updated for 2025: The 21 Scariest Horror Movies on Netflix Right Now
October 29, 2025 - Chances are, if you saw Tobe Hooper’s horror milestone at a young age, you remember it being much more gory and explicitly violent than it actually is. It’s understandable: after all, ‘chainsaw massacre’ is right there in the title. Admittedly, it’s an odd thing to describe a movie about a disturbed mama’s boy (inspired, like Psycho, by serial killer Ed Gein) who wears a mask made out of a woman’s skin as ‘restrained’, but revisiting the film today, it’s truly a masterclass of suggestion over graphic shock.
