2014 Horror Movies
1. What We Do In The Shadows
A mockumentary that follows a group of vampire roommates in New Zealand as they navigate the mundane struggles of immortal life—like chore charts, getting into nightclubs, and cleaning up after feeding.
This one is pure horror-comedy gold. It’s clever, charming, and endlessly quotable. If you’ve ever wondered what The Office would look like with vampires, this is it. A must-watch for fans of dry humor, fangs, and found-family weirdness.
Where To Watch:
2. Dead Snow 2
After barely surviving an attack from Nazi zombies, a man wakes up in a hospital with a new (undead) arm and a mission to finish the job. With the help of some unlikely allies, he sets out for gory revenge.
Yes, it’s absurd. Yes, it’s over-the-top. And yes, it’s an absolute blast. If you love ridiculous horror that leans hard into gore and comedy, Dead Snow 2 delivers. It somehow outdoes the original in chaos, and it’s perfect for fans of splatter and satire.
Where To Watch:
3. Oculus
Two siblings reunite years after a tragedy to destroy the antique mirror they believe is responsible for their family’s downfall. But the mirror plays mind games—and reality quickly begins to unravel around them.
This one was a standout for 2014 and a big moment for Mike Flanagan. It’s creepy, smart, and uses timeline-hopping to build serious tension. Plus, Karen Gillan is fantastic in it. If you missed Oculus back then, it still holds up beautifully today. Check the widget below to give it a watch!
Where To Watch:
4. The Babadook
A single mother and her troubled son are haunted by a sinister presence after reading a mysterious pop-up book. As the entity creeps deeper into their lives, it becomes clear that it’s feeding off grief and fear.
This is psychological horror at its finest—eerie, emotional, and deeply layered. It’s a haunting metaphor for trauma and motherhood that sticks with you long after it ends. A standout in modern horror and absolutely essential viewing.
Where To Watch:
5. Housebound
A troubled young woman is placed under house arrest in her creepy childhood home with her equally creepy mother—and quickly starts to suspect the house may be haunted.
This one’s a hidden gem from New Zealand that blends horror, mystery, and some genuinely funny moments. It’s spooky without being too heavy, and the tone is perfectly offbeat. If you’re into haunted house stories with a twist, Housebound should be on your list.
Where To Watch:
6. The Purge: Anarchy
Set during the annual Purge—a 12-hour period where all crime is legal—a group of strangers must band together to survive the chaos on the streets of L.A., while uncovering the darker forces at play.
This sequel cranks things up from the first movie, taking the concept to the streets and adding more action, more stakes, and a broader scope. It’s gritty, intense, and hits harder than you’d expect. A solid entry in the franchise and one of the better Purge films.
Where To Watch:
7. Creep
A videographer takes a freelance job filming a strange man in a remote cabin for the day… and things get real weird, real fast. What starts off quirky spirals into something disturbingly intimate and unshakably eerie.
This is found footage with maximum discomfort and minimal budget—but Creep is proof you don’t need buckets of gore to leave viewers squirming. Mark Duplass is unsettling in a way that feels too real, and if you’re into slow-burning dread with awkward tension and a fantastic ending, this one still hits. Check the widget below to see where it’s streaming.
Where To Watch:
8. As Above So Below
A group of explorers heads into the catacombs beneath Paris in search of the legendary Philosopher’s Stone… but what they find is a full-on descent into hell—both literally and mentally.
This one is peak 2014 chaos. Found footage, claustrophobic tunnels, psychological torment, and a relentless pace that doesn’t let up. It’s The Descent meets National Treasure with demonic flair. If you skipped this one back in the day, now’s the time to crawl back in. Streaming info’s right below.
Where To Watch:
9. Dracula Untold
Before he was a legendary vampire, Vlad Tepes was a desperate warrior who made a monstrous deal to save his people. Dracula Untold reimagines the origin of the infamous bloodsucker as a dark superhero tale.
Okay, so this one’s a little divisive, but if you’re into action-packed, stylized monster flicks with a gothic flair, this is actually a fun time. It’s not pure horror, but it’s got enough creatures, carnage, and camp to make it worth a revisit. Check the widget below for streaming info.
Where To Watch:
10. Starry Eyes
A struggling actress gets her big break—but it comes with a horrifying price. As she’s drawn deeper into a sinister Hollywood cult, her transformation becomes both physical and spiritual… and it is not pretty.
This is one of those under-the-radar 2014 horror gems that goes hard. It’s body horror meets industry satire, with a killer lead performance and a descent into madness that’s as stylish as it is disturbing. If you like your horror bloody and metaphorical, this one delivers. Hit the widget for where to watch.
Where To Watch:
11. The Taking of Deborah Logan
A documentary crew sets out to capture a woman’s battle with Alzheimer’s—only to discover something far more terrifying is taking hold of her. Think Paranormal Activity meets The Exorcist, with a gut-wrenching emotional core.
This one was a sleeper hit that earned its reputation thanks to that final act. Found footage? Check. Creepy possession scenes? Double check. One of the most disturbing final shots in recent horror memory? Oh yeah. If you somehow missed this one in 2014, now’s the time to face it. Streaming info’s right below.
Where To Watch:
12. Last Shift
A rookie cop is assigned to the final shift at a decommissioned police station, where she soon realizes she’s not alone—and whatever’s with her is not friendly.
This one is a straight-up nightmare factory. Low budget, high tension, and loaded with occult weirdness and aggressive scares. If you like your horror relentless and dripping with dread, Last Shift still holds up. And if you’ve seen Malum from 2024, this is the original—and in my opinion, still the better version. Widget below for streaming!
Where To Watch:
13. Life After Beth
When Zach’s girlfriend Beth dies unexpectedly, he’s heartbroken. That is, until she comes back to life. But she’s not quite the same… and things quickly unravel in this horror-comedy twist on the zombie genre.
This is 2014’s charmingly awkward take on grief, relationships, and rotting flesh. It’s quirky, weirdly sweet, and hilariously grim. Aubrey Plaza is an absolute menace in the best way. If you’re in the mood for undead romance and lighthearted horror, this one’s a fun time. Check the widget for where to stream.
Where To Watch:
14. Annabelle
Before she was freaking people out in The Conjuring, Annabelle got her own solo film—following a young couple terrorized by the possessed doll after a cult breaks into their home.
Look, this isn’t the strongest in the Conjuringverse, but it helped cement Annabelle as a horror icon. It’s got some solid scares, eerie atmosphere, and it kickstarted a whole sub-franchise. Not essential viewing, but definitely part of the 2014 horror story. Streaming info’s right below.
Where To Watch:
15. Tusk
A podcaster goes missing after an interview in rural Canada, and his friend sets out to find him—only to uncover a truly unhinged body horror situation involving a walrus suit.
Yes, Tusk is just as weird as it sounds. It’s one of those “you have to see it to believe it” movies. Kevin Smith leans hard into bizarre territory, and the result is disturbing, absurd, and kind of brilliant? A twisted entry in the horror-comedy hall of fame. Streaming here ⬇️
Where To Watch:
16. Rec 4
Picking up right where REC 2 left off, this entry moves the infection from a claustrophobic apartment complex to a quarantined ship. The stakes are higher, the setting is tighter, and the chaos is full throttle.
While it leans more action-horror than pure terror, [REC] 4 still brings that signature intensity the franchise is known for. If you’re a fan of the series, this is a worthy (and wild) finale to the original arc. Found footage is gone, but the infected are not. Check the widget below to dive in.
Where To Watch:
17. Zombeavers
A group of college kids heads to a remote cabin for a weekend getaway (classic), only to find themselves under attack from—you guessed it—zombie beavers. Chaos, carnage, and gnawed limbs ensue.
This is one of those so bad it’s brilliant horror-comedies that knows exactly what it is and leans into every absurd second. If you’re in the mood for dumb fun with practical effects and cheesy charm, Zombeavers is a must. Don’t take it seriously—just enjoy the beaver mayhem. Widget below for streaming info!
Where To Watch:
18. Ouija
A group of teens messes around with a Ouija board (because bad ideas are kind of the genre’s lifeblood), accidentally summoning something that doesn’t exactly come in peace. Let the spooky mirror scares begin.
This one was pretty mid when it dropped, but it did launch a mini-franchise and eventually gave us the far superior Ouija: Origin of Evil in 2016. That said, if you’re doing a 2014 horror binge, it’s still worth a watch for the nostalgia and some solid atmosphere. Streaming widget’s waiting for you below.
Where To Watch:
19. VHS Viral
The third entry in the V/H/S anthology series, Viral serves up more found footage chaos with shorts centered around fame, alternate dimensions, and apocalyptic cults—all framed by a chaotic street-level storyline.
Not the strongest of the franchise (let’s be real), but it’s got a few bonkers segments that are still fun to revisit. If you’re a found footage junkie or diving into the full V/H/S catalog, this is required viewing. Just keep expectations in check and enjoy the madness. Streaming info right below!

2024 Horror Movies
1. The Substance
A fading Hollywood starlet (Demi Moore, absolutely crushing it) discovers a mysterious black-market drug that promises a younger, “better” version of herself. But the catch? That new self doesn’t want to share.
This is body horror meets Hollywood satire in the most deliciously grotesque way possible. It’s slick, feminist, feral, and oozing with style—and yeah, there are some real gnarly moments. It’s one of the boldest, weirdest horror films of the year, and you’re either gonna love it or squirm through it (or both). Streaming options just below!
Where To Watch:
2. Nosferatu
Robert Eggers finally dropped his long-awaited Nosferatu remake, and whew—this thing is gothic horror poetry. It follows a young woman stalked by a terrifying vampire in 19th-century Germany, and the vibes are as dark as the shadows he slinks through.
Atmospheric, brooding, and absolutely gorgeous to look at, this is a slow-burn masterpiece that leans hard into old-school horror with a modern bite. If you liked The Witch or The Lighthouse, you’re probably already obsessed. Stream below.
Where To Watch:
3. Strange Darling
A woman flees a serial killer in the woods—but that’s only half the story. Told out of order, this ultra-stylized thriller keeps flipping the script until you’re left wondering who the real monster is.
This is one of those small, twisty films that rewards attention. It’s brutal, clever, and gorgeously shot—like If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late but for horror thrillers. You’re gonna want to go in as blind as possible, so no spoilers here. Just trust me: it’s worth it. Check the widget below for where to stream.
Where To Watch:
4. Heretic
Two young missionaries knock on the wrong door and end up in a nightmare scenario hosted by a manipulative—and possibly supernatural—older man. Think Misery meets The Invitation with a religious horror twist.
This one’s a slow-burn with an undercurrent of dread that builds until it explodes. There are moments where you’re not sure if you’re watching a thriller or straight-up psychological horror, and that ambiguity works so well. Keep an eye on this one—it’s not flashy, but it’s sharp. Streaming details below.
Where To Watch:
5. Late Night With The Devil
A 1970s late-night talk show broadcasts live during a Halloween special—only for things to unravel hard when the host welcomes a young girl believed to be possessed. What unfolds is a descent into on-air chaos.
This is found footage meets retro broadcast horror and it’s absolutely electrifying. It’s got charm, style, and some legit “oh no what are we watching” moments. David Dastmalchian kills it as the host, and the finale? Unhinged in the best way. One of my favorites of 2024. Stream below.
Where To Watch:
6. Exhuma
Two shamans, a funeral director, and a wealthy family uncover something ancient and terrifying beneath a grave that should’ve stayed untouched. What begins as a traditional exhumation spirals into full-blown supernatural horror.
This Korean horror gem is eerie, methodical, and steeped in ritualistic dread. It’s beautifully shot, anchored by strong performances, and loaded with spiritual horror that’ll make your skin crawl. If you like horror that respects its mythology while still going hard with the scares? Exhuma delivers. Check the widget below to watch.
Where To Watch:
7. Smile 2
The sinister, trauma-devouring entity from the first Smile returns—this time targeting a rising pop star after she witnesses a horrifying event backstage. The curse lives on… and so do the creepiest smiles in horror.
Is it as strong as the first? Debatable. Is it still packed with unnerving visuals, existential dread, and skin-crawling atmosphere? Oh yeah. If you liked the original’s mix of jump scares and slow psychological breakdown, Smile 2 keeps the vibes going. Streaming info below.
Where To Watch:
8. Abigail
A group of criminals kidnaps a little girl, hoping for a big payday. That’s all I’m saying so I don’t spoil it.
This one is a blast. It’s got dark comedy, buckets of blood, and a killer performance from Alisha Weir that immediately puts her on the scream queen map. Think Ready or Not meets From Dusk Till Dawn with fangs and flair. Go in blind, watch with friends, and enjoy the carnage. Widget below for your viewing pleasure.
Where To Watch:
9. Longlegs
An FBI agent gets wrapped up in a serial killer case that veers way off the rails into occult territory. As she digs deeper, she discovers the killer might be part of something much darker than just murder.
This is slow-burn dread incarnate. Think Se7en meets Hereditary with Nicolas Cage delivering one of the most chilling performances of his career. The vibes are off in the best way possible. If you like horror that crawls under your skin and stays there, this one is for you. Streaming info just below.
Where To Watch:
10. The First Omen
Set before the events of The Omen, this prequel follows a young American woman sent to Rome to work at a church-run orphanage. What she uncovers there sets the stage for the rise of the Antichrist.
This one shocked me with how good it was. The cinematography is stunning, the tone is grim, and the horror moments are genuinely disturbing. Even if you haven’t seen the original Omen, this stands on its own. If you’re into religious horror with bite (and a couple scenes that will haunt your soul), this one’s a must. Widget below if you’re feeling brave.
Where To Watch:
11. Terrifier 3
Art the Clown is back for round three, this time painting the town red during Christmas. And by “painting,” I mean butchering.
This one’s for the gorehounds. It’s mean, nasty, and as unapologetically brutal as you’d expect. Personally? I think Terrifier 2 still reigns supreme, especially when it comes to story and emotional payoff. But Terrifier 3 is still a worthy installment and a bloody gift to the horror community—it made serious box office noise and solidified Art’s horror icon status. If you’ve got the stomach, the widget below will guide you into the carnage.
Where To Watch:
12. A Quiet Place Day One
Ever wonder what those terrifying sound-sensitive aliens showing up looked like in real time? This prequel drops us into the chaos of Day One, through the eyes of a new lead character trying to survive as the world goes silent—or else.
It brings a new perspective to the Quiet Place universe, expanding the scope without losing the tension. There’s more emotion, a deeper look at humanity under pressure, and some truly effective scare sequences. If you’re already a fan of the franchise, this is a no-brainer. Check out where it’s streaming below.
Where To Watch:
13. Lisa Frankenstein
A goth teen in the ’80s reanimates a Victorian-era corpse, gives him a makeover, and starts falling in love with him. Yes, this movie is exactly as unhinged and delightful as that sounds.
From Diablo Cody, this is horror-comedy with heavy Edward Scissorhands meets Warm Bodies energy. It’s quirky, colorful, and full of heart—and while it won’t be for everyone, it’s got cult classic written all over it. If you want horror with eyeliner, neon, and a surprising amount of charm, Lisa’s your girl. Streaming widget’s got the goods below.
Where To Watch:
14. Trap
A father and daughter attend a pop concert… only to realize it’s actually a massive police sting.
M. Night Shyamalan came back swinging with this one. It’s tense, weird, and leans more thriller than horror—but the setup is so deliciously dark, it earns its spot on the horror-adjacent list. The dread builds in a slow, methodical way, and the payoff is satisfying in that “oh no he didn’t” kind of way. Widget below for streaming options.
Where To Watch:
15. Sting
A girl discovers a spider. The spider gets bigger. Then things get… messy. Like really messy.
Sting brings back that good ol’ creature feature energy, and it goes off. It’s got great practical effects, that nostalgic Arachnophobia-style suspense, and just enough heart to balance out the bite. If you’re even slightly creeped out by spiders, this’ll be your new nightmare fuel. Check streaming options below.
Where To Watch:
16. Tarot
A group of friends uses a mysterious deck of tarot cards they definitely shouldn’t be messing with, and surprise—each card predicts a gruesome death that starts playing out in real life.
Is it reinventing the wheel? Not really. But if you’re in the mood for a fun, Final Destination-style body count with creative kills and a glossy YA horror vibe, Tarot scratches that itch. Great for a group watch, especially if you like your horror light on lore but heavy on aesthetic. Check the widget below to watch.
Where To Watch:
17. Night Swim
A suburban family moves into a new house with a pool. That pool? It’s cursed. Of course it is. And now, something dark and watery is lurking beneath the surface.
Night Swim is one of those movies that takes a silly premise and tries to make it serious—and honestly, it kinda works. The water-based horror is creepy, the sound design is solid, and there’s enough weirdness here to keep it interesting. Not a game-changer, but a decent watch when you’re in the mood for something a little more supernatural. Check the widget below before you dive in.
Where To Watch:
18. The Strangers Chapter One
A young couple on a road trip ends up stranded at a rental cabin in the woods… and then the masked strangers show up. You know the drill. Or do you?
This is a reboot/reimagining that’s supposed to kick off a new Strangers trilogy, and it leans hard into the slow-burn home invasion vibes. It’s moody, methodical, and has some genuinely tense moments. It doesn’t quite top the original, but it sets the stage for what could be a really creepy new arc. Honestly, not really worth checking out (lol), but if you want to, it’s streaming in these places ⬇️
