The 10 Best Horror Films of 2025 | Features | Roger Ebert
2 weeks ago - Its production is a classic underdog tale, adding to the myth of this startling, resourceful debut in the tradition of Sam Raimi and “The Evil Dead.” And the unpredictable saga of this unusual road movie continued with the late 2025 announcement that Neon has picked up Ullom’s film for a planned theatrical release in 2026. A similarly clever backstory powered another notable indie-horror film of 2025, as “Good Boy” became a hit for IFC/Shudder on the strength of a good gimmick and an excellent PR campaign that played on the popular aversion to seeing dogs suffer and/or die in movies.

The best horror movies of 2025 (so far)
October 14, 2025 - A horror-thriller in the mold of Wolf Creek – only a lot, lot more fun – this tongue-in-cheek Aussie monster movie is a sunlit slasher where sharks are the instrument of death, but Jai Courtney’s gurning bogan, Tucker, is the real monster. The Suicide Squad actor is a blast as a shark dive owner who welcomes unsuspecting travellers onto his old rust bucket, only to use them as snacks for the local fish life.

The 10 Best Horror Movies of 2025!
But The Monkey manages to tell the story of a monkey toy that causes the deaths of those around it in absurdly over-the-top ways. And it gets so crazy that the only appropriate reaction is to simply laugh at it all. Osgood Perkins is a unique filmmaker, and it’s impressive to see how he was able to expand upon Stephen King’s short story. I still remember being in the theater going, “Wait, is that fucking Adam Scott?”
