It’s that time of the year, everyone. Halloween is just around the corner, and you know what that means… it’s time for scary movies! There is nothing better than curling up and watching a scary movie or two during the Halloween season. Here is a list of eight movies that you can’t miss and that will leave you scared throughout the night!
8. Dawn of the Dead
What is better than zombies chasing humans? In this epic
horror movie, humans are killed left and right by zombies and have to hide in a
shopping mall to attempt to survive. You don’t want to miss this one!
7. Paranormal Activity
This movie is about a couple, Katie and Micah, and their
haunted home. There is a supernatural occurrence in their home. This movie is
especially creepy because of the style of film. There are cameras set up around
the house and it makes the footage seem very real. From flickering lights to
blood-stained clothing, this is a Halloween must.
6. The Sixth Sense
“I see dead people” has to be one of the most quoted movie
lines of all time. "The Sixth Sense" is about a young, troubled boy who can talk
to dead people, and a psychologist who tries to help him. This movie was the
second-highest grossing film of 1999, so obviously you will want to catch this
one on a spooky night this month.
5. The Shining
Jack Torrance takes a job as a caretaker at a hotel. He is a
recovering alcoholic and has a young son and wife. There is a supernatural being
in the hotel that inhabits Jack. Because of this he makes horrific decisions.
Trust me, this one you can’t miss.
4. Night of the Living Dead
What starts out as an innocent trip to Pennsylvania to visit
a gravestone turns into a disaster. Barbara and her brother Johnny visit their
father’s grave, but Barbara gets attacked by a man and Johnny dies saving her. Barbara
runs to an old farmhouse with Ben, a man she finds on the way. It turns out
this place also houses other frightened people running from zombies. Give it a
watch and you won’t be disappointed!
3. The Exorcist
What is scarier than being possessed by the devil? This
movie deals with a 12 year-old girl being possessed and her mother attempting
to bring her back to the real world through an exorcism directed by two
priests. This is one of the creepiest movies to date.
2. Jaws
This thriller directed by Steven Spielberg is a classic.
Jaws is about a humongous, man-eating shark that attacks humans on the beach on
Amity Island, a fictional resort town. Marine biologists attempt to hunt the
shark down in order to stop the killings. This movie was the highest growing
movie in history until "Star Wars" was released. This classic thriller is a must-see
this Halloween season!
1. Halloween
The original film, released in 1978, is about
a six-year-old boy who murders his sister on Halloween night. He then is
admitted to a psychiatric hospital, but escapes five years later, and he
immediately begins stalking a young girl. This horror movie is perfect for a
scary Halloween night, and I highly recommend it!
