Discussion
Let's create a list of our favorite horror movies based on how good they are! Consider factors like rewatchability, story quality, and overall effectiveness. This list should focus on how well the movies hold up today, considering them at face value, not on their legacy or influence on the genre.
Here's how it works:
Comment below with your nomination for your favorite horror movie of the year in the title. Do not comment duplicate movie titles. If your favorite movie has already been mentioned, simply upvote that comment instead. Note: Release dates will be based on when a film has its theatrical release (US), not whenever it premiered at festivals. So for example, the winner of 2023 was Talk to Me, which premiered in October 2022, but didn't get a wide release until July 2023. This list will use the latter date.
Upvote the movie title(s) you agree with.
The single comment with the most upvotes will be crowned the unanimous favorite for the current letter. If a movie title is posted multiple times, only the comment with the most upvotes will be counted. This prevents users from influencing the results by upvoting multiple comments for the same movie.
So let's have it, what're your favorite movies of the year in the title?
Past winners:
2023: Talk to Me
Runner up: When Evil Lurks
2022: Barbarian
Runner up: Prey
2021: The Night House
Runner up: Titane
2020: The Dark and the Wicked
Runner up: Possessor
