A twisted serial killer who just wont quit?
Yeah, thats a hard pass from me.
I love a spooky tale, especiallyhorror movies with women leads.
In fact I watchHalloween moviesall year round.
Theres something cathartic aboutfacing these terrorsfrom the safety of your couch.
Paranormal movies are actually fun when you know your own house isn’t haunted, you know?
The results were entertaining, to say the least.
Ready to see the scariest movie ever?
Turn the lights off, grab your popcorn, and get ready to be spooked.

M3gan(2023)
Sorry, Annabelle and Chucky.
This comedy-horror movie stars Alexandra Shipp and Brianna Hildebrand as two high school seniors who run a true-crime blog.
The movie makes a lot out of a small budget (think flickering lights, doors slamming, etc.
), so much so that it spawned a series of sequels that are just as spine-tingling.
Theres nothing quite like the original, though.
Climax(2018)
Who doesnt love a good dance party?!
Spoiler alert: Come for the opening dance sequence, stay to find out who spiked the punch.
Hirsch says about this period piece starring Anya Taylor-Joy.
The Witchs spook factor is off the charts.
When they finally meet, chaos ensues.
But what makes this movie scary is how unsettling it is.
Youre left thinking about it for hours after its over.
Plus, two quiet and creepy-looking kids dont help.
Less than an hour long, the whole thing takes place over one very unfortunate Zoom meeting.
Expect a lot of jump scares and the sudden desire to never accept another video conference invite again.
The experience was so terrifying, Im surprised I ever watched another horror movie again.
Its a tribute to the many ironies of the mother-daughter relationship.
Moms are so annoying!
But if youve got a good one, she wont let anyone else mess with you at all.
Theres only an answer to the question of what are we going to do about it.
And that answer is: fight.
And call your mom.
I still thought of new Easter eggs and references from it, even a year after watching it.
I dare you to watch and not have the line Because you were home haunt you forever.
After all, its about an entity that feeds on the characters darkest fears.
The exorcism scene was completely gross.
He plays a ventriloquist whose dummy suddenly picks up a habit of murdering people, she explains.
Its scary because its preSilence of the LambsHopkins, and the jump takes really hold up.
It gets psychological and creepyreallyfast.
Hes still alive and has managed to become invisible.
But is she right?
Youll have a spooky time finding out.
When Allison Williams (spoiler!)
She had really thick hair, so it took the length of the movie!
AndInsidiousis my biggest piece of evidence.
That bloody face pop-out scare?
I still get chills thinking about it.
Four months later, Byrne starred as Helen in thecomedy classicBridesmaids, further showcasing her impressive range.
Also, it has one of the most high-stakes will-they-get-caught scenes Ive ever seen.
Antebellum(2020)
Filming a psychological thriller as intense asAntebellumseems like it might be difficult.
It distracts me from the horrors of real life.
Jaws(1975)
Rosa citesJawsasthescariest horror movie of all time.
The 1975 shark epic isnt ripe with jump scares or disturbing imagery, he says.
But the horror lies in what youdontsee.
If that isnt effective horror, Im not sure what is.
What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?
(1962)
Ofcoursethis movie had to make the list.
Thats scary, yesbut even more so is the art-imitating-industry aspect.
The fact the only lucrative gig for an actress over 50 at that time was grotesque spinster is ridiculous.
Candyman(2021)
Available to rent on Amazon Prime Video.
The Shining(1980)
Parker says she actually watchesThe Shiningalmost yearly to get fall-winter fashion inspiration.
Orphan(2009)
Parker picked this one for its wild plot twist.
As you’ve got the option to imagine, things go downhill from there.
Youll go through just about every emotion while you watchthe horror comedy masterfully blends the laughs with high-tension scares.
One time I remember waking up duringThe Hills Have Eyesand have been traumatized ever since.
And whats worse: She thinks that something is going around murdering other people.
Watch to find the answer, and prepare to be dumbfounded by a bonkers twist.
Jessica Rothe is the 21st-century scream queen we deserve.
And second, what if you had to pick between love and family?
And with strongThe WitchandThe Cruciblevibes, it might be the creepiest and darkest of the three.
The result is a hilarious, but no less gory, slasher.
Its unlike anything youve seen before, or will likely see again.
Fresh(2022)
The casting ofFreshis what makes it so…fresh.
As for the rest of the movies run time?
Well, theres a reason its on the list of best horror movies.
Im excited to see everyones biggest takeaway because it represents how you see and view the world.
