Heads up, horror fans! If you're in the mood for some killer entertainment and haven't yet had your fill of the supernatural, Netflix has got you covered. Here are some must-watch films that feature some of the hottest names in the horror industry right now.
Talk to Me
The breakout debut of brothers Danny and Michael Philippou, Talk to Me—released in 2012—will send chills down your spine as you bear witness to a supremely ill-advised party game involving demonic possession. With Bring Her Back, their latest film hitting theaters on May 30, now's the perfect time to revisit this classic.
Cam
Get acquainted with Madeline Brewer, known for her role as Janine in Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale, in this quirky horror mystery. Cam, released in 2018, follows Brewer's character, a webcam model, as she unravels a series of strange events ties to her online existence.
His House
If you were blown away by Wunmi Mosaku’s performance in Sinners or Lovecraft Country and are craving more of her talent, worry not! She stripped her uniquely chilling presence onto the silver screen with her role in the 2020 Netflix original His House. In this film, Mosaku portrays a refugee from South Sudan who, along with her husband, discovers that the horrors of her homeland have followed her to her new London home.
I Know What You Did Last Summer
Revisit the era of 1990s slasher classics with this fun and chilling flick. With Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. reprising their roles for the upcoming reboot (out July 18), watching the original is the perfect warm-up.
Mr. Harrigan’s Phone
Need a Stephen King fix? Look no further than Mr. Harrigan’s Phone, a 2022 horror tale adapted from the master of horror's own words. While The Life of Chuck (arriving June 6) may fall under the suspense-thriller genre, King fans will relish the opportunity to experience his mystery and horror style.
Little Evil
Got a hankering for some supernatural comedies? Catch Adam Scott in Little Evil, a film that channels the vibe of The Omen. Fun fact: Eli Craig, the director of this enjoyable 2017 flick, has another movie on the horizon, titled Clown in a Cornfield (out May 9). If you've only seen Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, another Craig gem, then Little Evil needs a spin on your watchlist.
