One of Halloween's best things is exposing the children to the
thrills of watching Halloween movies for fun. Yet good horror movies definitely
vary on how scary it is. Whether you have kids at home who just want to see
some gentle Halloween fun or a teen who's working her way up to a frightening
series. I can help your kids plan a Spooktacular movie night with a few
age-appropriate and spine-tingling movies that will surely shrink them. So,
gather the kids, carve the pumpkin family, cook up some treats, and sit for all
of these family-friendly Halloween horror films!
1.
A Quiet Place
This
nerve-shredder flick I pretty love the most. It's a film intended to make you
an active participant in a suspense environment, not just a passive spectator
in unfolding terror. Most of the great horror films do this because we will be
actively involved in the characters ' fate and in the dramatic experiment before
us. It's a fast thrill ride — the kind of film that accelerates heart rate and
toys with audience expectations while never treating them like fools. That's what
a good horror film should be.
2.
IT Chapter 1 & 2
Clowns
are terrifying anyway. We can all agree, right? And I can say that Pennywise is
the top amongst all creepy clowns. Definitely, you can sense the horror of the
dancing clown who chases down the children of Maine and torments them. Though IT
chapter 1 and 2 can be a long scary movie to watch, but I can assure that you’ll
get terrified also satisfied at the same time by watching the whole chapter. It
is a fun movie to watch with your family, especially if you want to beat your
own “FEAR.”
3.
Scary Story to Tell in The Dark
This
one is for the intermediaries: kids who have grown up out of the scary family-friendly
movies but are not mature enough for Midsommar. Based on several books you used
to be afraid as a child, another film follows a group of children who have to
investigate a number of urban legends. Before the legends get real.
4.
The Babadook
At
first, I actually underestimated this horror movie because of the title, but boy
I was wrong. After watching the whole film, I can tell one thing this is the
world's best and most genuinely provocative horror movie to emerge in this 21st
century. Either a relentless psychological thriller with heavy primal elements
in mind and a scare-fest full-throttle slam-bang. It delivers raw sensation
without insulting the intelligence in the New Horror Paradigm like the more
sensationalist but essentially trite flick.
5.
The Sixth Sense
"The Sixth Sense" is
not a horror in the modern sense, but more of a ghost story of the kind that
originated years ago when ordinary people glimpsed secret dimensions. It has
long arguable that kids are better than adults to see ghosts; measures of skepticism
and denial are still not in place. In this film, a little boy gravely tells his
psychologist that there are a bunch of ghosts bothering his life.
6.
Poltergeist
Special
effects in horror films have become so professional, dramatic, and terrifying
that they sometimes upstage human actors. And they often cost more. For
example, in "Poltergeist," the cast consists of relatively unknown
performers, but that's okay because real stars are producer Steven Spielberg as
the legend of special effects and realistic violence. FYI, what makes this a movie more terrifying is the fact that all the main characters who played as a family who experiences paranormal activity in this movie are dead after completing
this thrilling trilogy.
7.
Lake Mungo
The intended stalking Lake
Mungo's frames never screech in a jump-scare. It never taunts anyone or acts
the least bit evil. And yet, Lake Mungo is frightening. The inevitable agony of
death and the futility of all of it cannot break away, and the final result is
under your skin, trapping you in an unrelenting, inescapable state of fear.
8.
Sleepy Hollow
"Sleepy
Hollow" starts with a plot that wouldn't have separated one of the lesser
movies from the Hammer Horror franchise and elevates it to something exciting
and sometimes quite stylish by sheer fashion. It's one thing to see a terrified
attorney being taken in a carriage by a driver who's lost his head along the
way. All in all, this is the greatest-looking horror to enjoy with your
friends.
9.
Drag Me to Hell
This
film is one of Sam Raimi's first post-Great Recession horror films. The story
centered in a beautiful bank employee Christine Brown (Alison Lohman) finds
herself the object of a granny curse as she refuses a loan extension
authorization. In contrast to all the sick, twisted moments of body horror and
torment by spirits from beyond, "Drag Me to Hell" is a terrifying reminder that we're all one fateful choice away from losing hold on our lives
and being dragged down to Hell's pits.
10. Hide and Seek
Hide and Seek is a mind-bending horror movie. The second you treat it as a horror movie, and then boom turns out it is a psychological thriller. All I can say, this is a very unpredictable and underappreciated movie. Robert de Niro just brilliant and his little girl ‘Dakota Fanning’ was even better.
11. Don't Be Afraid of The Dark
"Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" begins with a huge Aussie house that already haunted. The movie centered on the little girl, played by Bailee Madison with fortitude, intelligence, and bravery. What makes this is an excellent haunted house film is actually the curiosity. It will milk our frustration deliciously and bring us into the terror of her haunted house.
12. Krampus
Although Krampus is meant to be a Christmas horror movie, though I personally think that you can enjoy it anytime that you want, especially on Halloween. For those who don’t know, Krampus is an evil Santa figure from European folklore who ‘eat’ kids. All I can remember about this movie is fun to watch yet creepy at the same time. It still has its own charms that can make you freeze in the thrilling night.
13. Shaun of The Dead
I put this movie on my last list just because I really enjoy this thrilling comedy movie. I mean, its not as creepy or scary as all the movies above. But I can assure that this is the best zombie movie of all time. If you want to enjoy a thriller and funny movie with your family, then this is the best movie that you can get to watch. Damn, I love Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, and you’ll do too. I promise you’ll be happy just to watch the first 15 minutes of this movie.
