It\u2019s been a pretty good year for horror fans. When it comes to movies, the summer was packed with the likes of\u00a0Cuckoo<\/em>,\u00a0MaXXXine<\/em>, and\u00a0Alien: Romulus<\/em>, while gaming has seen releases such as a\u00a0Silent Hill 2<\/em>\u00a0remake and the retro\u00a0Crow Country<\/em>. So, if you\u2019re looking for something new to play or watch in the lead-up to Halloween, we\u2019ve gathered all of our spookiest coverage here in one place to make things a little easier. (And if you missed it,\u00a0we did the same thing last year.) So, grab some snacks, turn down the lights, and get ready for a few scares.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

As much as studios love hyping up their latest scary movies as being so terrifying that they traumatize audiences, it is rare for features to live up to that kind of buzz. But\u00a0The Substance<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/em>writer \/ director Coralie Fargeat\u2019s new body horror is infinitely more disturbing (a feature, not a bug) than any of its early trailers have let on.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Films about the agony of living up to female beauty standards aren\u2019t new, but\u00a0The Substance\u00a0<\/em>weaves them into an incisive feminist parable that feels jacked directly into the moment that has given us\u00a0on-demand Ozempic<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Brat<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0<\/em>And what the film lacks in subtlety, it makes up for with an inspired\u00a0 if stomach-turning\u00a0 story that\u2019s meant to get all the way under your skin, no matter how secure in your body you might feel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

It\u2019s mind-boggling that\u00a0Alien: Romulus<\/em><\/a>\u00a0almost wound up\u00a0debuting on Hulu<\/a>\u00a0instead of theaters. The film\u2019s intricate set design alone makes it one of the series\u2019 most visually impressive chapters, and its practical effects are a welcome change of pace in a summer blockbuster season that has been\u00a0dominated<\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0uninspired CGI spectacle<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Director Fede \u00c1lvarez\u2019s new standalone entry in the long-running sci-fi \/ horror franchise feels especially primed to speak to a new generation of fans. But as fun as\u00a0Romulus\u00a0<\/em>is to look at, its story plays more like a compilation of the\u00a0Alien\u00a0<\/em>series\u2019 greatest hits than a movie that\u2019s trying to sing its own tune. And the few new ideas\u00a0Romulus\u00a0<\/em>does bring to the table are undercut by its insistence on leaning into some very questionable optics.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

The release of\u00a0Get Out\u00a0<\/em>in 2017 disturbed Hollywood \u2014 not just the box office but, briefly, the entire horror genre, which had long been the most consistent moneymaker in the industry. The film made a multiple of 56 times on its $4.5 million budget and was less a breakthrough and more of a victory lap for Blumhouse, the studio that had for nearly two decades championed scary movies at a low cost with hopes of a high return.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Partly,\u00a0Get Out<\/em>\u00a0was exceptional \u2014 not the first movie where the true horror is racism, but one that balanced the terror with humor and absurdity. Eager to repeat that success, Hollywood greenlit a swath of horror movies about racism. Many of them were underwhelming and, in some cases,\u00a0appalling<\/a>. Mostly, it was exhausting to see so much repetition in a genre that thrives on novelty. But at least these movies were\u00a0about<\/em>\u00a0something. Now we\u2019re onto the next wave of horror films, which have trended toward being about nothing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Coming on the heels of\u00a0Longlegs<\/em><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Immaculate<\/em>, director Tilman Singer\u2019s\u00a0Cuckoo\u00a0<\/em>feels like the next phase of Neon\u2019s plan to dominate this summer of horror. The movie\u2019s haunting atmosphere and gorgeous cinematography make it seem primed to tap into Hollywood\u2019s current obsession with unsettling features running on spooky vibes alone. But for all of its hype and a solid performance from its leads,\u00a0Cuckoo<\/em>\u00a0suffers from a lack of thematic coherence. It\u2019s definitely the strongest of Neon\u2019s recent scary movies, but that isn\u2019t exactly a high bar to clear.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Set in a corner of the German Alps where few foreigners tend to wander,\u00a0Cuckoo<\/em>\u00a0follows as sullen, American teenager Gretchen (Hunter Schafer) is forced to move in with her estranged father, Luis (Marton Csokas), and his new family. With all of Gretchen\u2019s beloved bandmates and treasured possessions back in the States, she can\u2019t help but feel alone living with her stepmother Beth (Jessica Henwick) and mute half-sister Alma (Mila Lieu). And while Gretchen doesn\u2019t try to hide her distaste at being uprooted for Luis\u2019 job expanding a secluded resort owned by Herr K\u00f6nig (Dan Stevens), she only feels comfortable expressing the depths of her sadness in voicemails to her unseen mother.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

With\u00a0X<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Pearl<\/em><\/a>, it was hard to miss that Ti West was using pornography and horror as lenses through which to tell a story about the evolution of film. Both were explorations of how naked bodies have always been a subject of cinematic fascination, and while the movies were tonally different, they similarly spotlighted how sex has always been one of the driving forces behind the advancement of movie-making technology.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

MaXXXine\u00a0<\/em>enters the\u00a0X\u00a0<\/em>franchise<\/a>\u00a0knowing full well how easily it could fall victim to the threequel curse if it simply dropped its star into a new decade to fight for her life on yet another farm. And while it features plenty of callbacks to its predecessors, it switches the formula up just enough to make it feel like West has pulled off a blood-soaked hat trick.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

For the last few years, Ti West hasn\u2019t stopped thinking about the horror villains Pearl and Maxine. Since 2020, the writer and director has been fully immersed in the genre-spanning franchise that started with the \u201970s slasher flick\u00a0X<\/em>\u00a0and continued with\u00a0the technicolor prequel\u00a0Pearl<\/em><\/a>, which were filmed back-to-back in New Zealand during the pandemic and released in 2022. Now things culminate with the premiere of the series\u2019 third act,\u00a0the very \u201980s thriller\u00a0MaXXXine<\/em><\/a>. It\u2019s been an intense process that has meant West hasn\u2019t had much time for anything else. \u201cIt\u2019s all such a blur at this point,\u201d he tells\u00a0The Verge<\/em>. \u201cIt\u2019s been seven days a week, 12 hours a day, for four and a half years.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The franchise was born, in part, out of practicality. West had initially only pitched\u00a0X<\/em>\u00a0to the powers that be at A24 but had ideas for a bigger trilogy in the back of his mind. And after getting a cast and crew to New Zealand and building the sets, he realized he could film a lot of that work again for a prequel. \u201cWe had already spent all of this time and money building a Texas farm in New Zealand. How do we reuse it for free?\u201d he remembers thinking. \u201cHow do we amortize all of those costs and make the movie less of a risk for A24? That\u2019s where the idea came from from a practical standpoint.\u201d He ended up writing the script for\u00a0Pearl<\/em>\u00a0in a two-week-long flurry while in quarantine so that they could start shooting right away.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

There is an honesty to\u00a0I Saw the TV Glow<\/em>\u2019<\/a>s depiction of growing up as a lonely, fantasy-obsessed kid in the \u201990s that makes it resonate. And that\u2019s true regardless of whether you, like writer \/ director Jane Schoenbrun, were a fan of\u00a0Buffy the Vampire Slayer<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The film\u2019s mind-bending story centers on Owen (Justice Smith) and Maddy (Brigette Lundy-Paine). The two outsiders spark an unlikely friendship over their shared love of\u00a0The Pink Opaque<\/em>, a fictional fantasy \/ horror series that feels like a twisted mashup of\u00a0The Adventures of Pete & Pete\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Are You Afraid of the Dark?\u00a0<\/em>Between its angsty, lo-fi atmosphere and pivots into explicit B-movie horror, almost every frame speaks to how large an impact\u00a0Buffy<\/em>\u00a0had on Schoenbrun\u2019s young imagination. But you can also hear Schoenbrun\u00a0channeling the ideas<\/a>\u00a0of queer theorists like\u00a0Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick<\/a>\u00a0as the film explores what it really means to see one\u2019s self in fiction.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Traversing the nightmare realms of the human mind has always been central to horror. The stories we tell ourselves about what\u2019s moving in the darkness, the creation of monsters out of unknown sounds \u2014 from this emerges our fascination with terror. In\u00a0Senua\u2019s Saga: Hellblade II<\/em>, players navigate a cold, dark ninth-century Iceland in the often wet shoes of the Pictish warrior Senua on her second adventure in the third-person action-horror franchise. I was very fond of\u00a0the first\u00a0Hellblade<\/em><\/a>, which saw Senua journey into Hel to save the soul of her lover. But the sequel pulled me in even further, with some of the most unforgettable and unsettling psychological horror I\u2019ve ever experienced.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Senua, who lives with psychosis that causes her to hear constant voices, is a fierce warrior who has \u201ckilled\u201d gods before in her personal quests at redemption. Cast out by her people in the Orkney Islands for being different, or a \u201cwitch,\u201d she has taken her battles across the sea to rescue her people from slavers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Even as modern horror games become\u00a0unnervingly immersive<\/a>, there\u2019s still a place for the particular mood of old-school survival horror. Through a combo of grimy visuals, cryptic puzzles, slow pacing, and clunky controls, PlayStation-era games like\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Silent Hill<\/em>\u00a0were able to create a distinct kind of tension and terror.\u00a0Crow Country<\/em>\u00a0is what would happen if that kind of game never went out of style. It has the look and feel of the classics but with just the right amount of modern flourish. It\u2019s a perfect bite of classic horror.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Crow Country<\/em>\u00a0comes from indie studio SFB Games \u2014 led by brothers Tom and Adam Vian \u2014 which has so far managed to create quite the eclectic library of releases. There was\u00a0the playful Switch launch title\u00a0Snipperclips<\/em><\/a>,\u00a0the point-and-click murder mystery\u00a0Tangle Tower<\/em><\/a>, and now a dark survival horror game.\u00a0Crow Country<\/em>\u00a0doesn\u2019t just evoke the\u00a0\u2019<\/strong>90s\u00a0\u2014 it\u2019s set during the period as well. The entire game takes place in an abandoned Atlanta amusement park in 1990, as a woman named Mara sets out in search of the park\u2019s elusive owner who mysteriously disappeared. Of course, the place is teeming with monsters and mystery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Discovering and latching on to pieces of art that touch you in profound, formative ways is a beautiful part of growing up in a world that\u2019s so thoroughly saturated with mass media. In their first film,\u00a0We\u2019re All Going to the World\u2019s Fair<\/em>, writer \/ director Jane Schoenbrun turned that facet of childhood into an intimate coming-of-age horror about creating one\u2019s identity on the internet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But with their second feature, A24\u2019s\u00a0I Saw the TV Glow<\/em>, Schoenbrun cultivates that idea into an even more unsettling, moving narrative by framing obsessive fandom as both a blessing and a curse. Whereas\u00a0We\u2019re All Going to the World\u2019s Fair\u00a0<\/em>was a snapshot of life in the age of modern social media,\u00a0I Saw the TV Glow\u00a0<\/em>is an exploration of what it felt like to be an outcast teenager in the \u201990s \u2014 a time when young fans of sci-fi and fantasy often had to find each other by chance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Horror films live and die by their conceits. And sometimes, the best way to make a movie scary is to place it in an environment that\u2019s not scary at all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Is there anything further from spooky than a brightly lit TV studio? The\u00a0surprise box office darling<\/a>\u00a0Late Night with the Devil<\/em>, which hit horror streamer Shudder this weekend (and might be more suited to home viewing), tries to make one of the most innocuous American broadcast traditions into a terror. David Dastmalchian, a character actor who you\u2019ll recognize from the margins of half a dozen Christopher Nolan and Denis Villeneuve movies, gets a rare star turn as Jack Delroy, the host of late-night talk show\u00a0Night Owls<\/em>. But in an era where Johnny Carson rules after-hours broadcast, Delroy\u2019s second-place program is on the verge of getting canceled. The only way to save it, Delroy believes, is to air an extraordinary Halloween episode about the occult in the middle of sweeps season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
