Top 5 Horror Movies That Never Die

/0 Comments/in , , /by

For those of us that love horror or enjoy the spooky season movie-binge-watch-a-thon, we are always on the lookout for what to watch next. Here are our Top 5 Horror Movies That (in our opinion) Never Die.

5. Killer Klowns From Outer Space (1988)

Cotton candy, cream pies, and shadow puppets, add in Killer Klowns and a couple on the run, what’s not to love about Killer Klowns From Outer Space? You’ll laugh, you’ll scream, it’s the best of campy horror and we always have a great time with this movie. Where’s my popcorn?

4. Child’s Play (1988)

Another great from 1988, Child’s Play is all of our inner childs’ worst nightmares come true. Chucky brings the fear of your favorite doll becoming a psychopathic killer home and we love it for it!

3. American Werewolf in London (1981)

It makes us laugh, it scares us, it’s bloody brilliant and that’s why John Landis’ American Werewolf in London never grows old… just hairier in the full moon.

2. The Shining (1980)

There’s a reason the Overlook Hotel keeps souls forever and ever, because it’s hauntingly perfect and keeps drawing us in. A family that changes for the worse is something that is so relatable and the execution of this element in sound and visuals is something that we can’t deny ever. It’s creepy and unsettling and we can’t get enough.

1. The Exorcist (1973)

Speaking of hitting it home, The Exorcist hits the family unit with pitch perfect gore that never dies… even if everyone in the movie does. The pace in which the world is over taken by possession grips us and makes the pay offs worth it watch after watch.

Scary Movies to Binge This Weekend

/0 Comments/in , , , /by
There’s a lot of viewable content out there which is why a watch list is so important. With Halloween on Sunday, time is of the essence, we need scary movies and we need them now. Here are 6 movies to binge this weekend that may or may not have been on your radar.

1. Werewolves Within (2021)

A fun twist of a werewolf movie. Full of delightful comedy and scary bits, it is perfect for anyone looking for a werewolf who-done-it or just a great comedic horror movie.

2. The Birds (1963)

Hitchcock got it all right with this suspenseful slow burn. So right that it still holds up today. Despite having some dated moments that may get a chuckle more than when it was released, The Birds still builds anxiety like a true horror should and is definitely worth a rewatch or a first viewing this time of year.

3. Arachnophobia (1990)

A spider, ew! Or yay, depending on your taste. But what if there are a lot of them? Like, way too many? This may be a movie forgotten, but one viewing and you’ll see why you’ll never forget it again. John Goodman plays an exterminator who is hired by arachnophobe Jeff Daniels to help clean his new house of, well, more than a few deadly spiders.

4. Killer Klowns From Outer Space (1988)

They came from outer space and they aren’t here to make friends. Another fun, creepy movie that will have you enjoying every minute. Unless you are deathly afraid of clowns, then… then this movie might be too much.

5. Nightbreed (1990)

From legendary Clive Barker and Danny Elfman, this fantasy, monster mash-up will hit all your light-hearted horror needs. And if after watching it you need something scarier, there’s always Hellraiser (1987).

6. The Faculty (1998)

School is scary enough but this school is ridiculous. Somewhere between From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) and Spy Kids (2001), Robert Rodriguez brought you The Faculty which follows a group of kids who band together to try and figure out what’s coming over their school. It features an amazing cast and promises to offer some spooks and chills!

In addition to this list there’s always the great Halloween staples and their sequels: Halloween (1978), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), and Friday the 13th (1980). What scary movie(s) should we add to our watch list? Let us know below or on our social media: IG @Blastftp, Twitter @BlastFTP, or on Facebook @blastfromthepastinc.
