The Horror Movie Vault
A decade of horror cinema, every one of them roasted. Watch through your fingers.
Backrooms
“A teenager turned a free YouTube creepypasta into A24's biggest hit ever, and the maddening part is he mostly earned it.”
Obsession
“A 750 thousand dollar horror film about a cursed wish out-earned half of Hollywood's franchise machine, and the only thing more cursed than the toy is the crew's pay stub.”
Lee Cronin's The Mummy
“Cronin scrubs the Tom Cruise stink off The Mummy with gore and gothic dread, then forgets to write a movie underneath the atmosphere.”
Exit 8
“A video game about spotting anomalies in a looping hallway becomes a tense, smart piece of liminal horror, which is the last sentence anyone expected to write.”
Scream 7
“The franchise's biggest box-office hit and one of its weakest films, which is the most Scream thing that has ever happened.”
Send Help
“Sam Raimi crashes a plane onto a desert island and somehow lands a survival horror that owes nothing to anybody's franchise, you can feel the relief from here.”
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple
“Nia DaCosta takes Alex Garland's script, a satanic cult, and an Alpha Infected named Samson, and builds the best film the franchise has ever coughed up, infection has never been this articulate.”
Primate
“A family chimp named Ben catches rabies and turns the living room into a kill box, Johannes Roberts delivers a nasty creature feature that's better than its premise has any right to be.”
The Conjuring: Last Rites
“Ed and Lorraine Warren take one last haunting and the franchise takes nearly $500 million, the box office screamed louder than the reviews, which is its own kind of horror.”
Weapons
“You took the oldest horror trick, seventeen kids vanishing at once, and built a clockwork mystery so tight it makes most studio horror look like it skipped homework.”
28 Years Later
“You waited 28 years to reunite Boyle and Garland, shot the apocalypse on iPhones, and somehow made the divisiveness feel like the point.”
Sinners
“Your first original film, no franchise to hide behind, and you came out with twin Michael B. Jordans, 1932 Mississippi, an Irish vampire, and a record-setting awards run. Show-off.”
Heretic
“You took Hugh Grant, the most charming man alive, and weaponized that charm into a horror villain so good it got him Best Actor nominations. Cruelest casting trick of the year.”
Terrifier 3
“You turned a clown with a hacksaw into a $90 million business model, and you did it without a single line of dialogue.”
The Substance
“You made the most disgusting movie of the year into an Oscar-nominated mirror, and Hollywood had to applaud while it flinched.”
Oddity
“You built a whole haunted house out of one life-sized wooden man and the audacity actually worked.”
Longlegs
“You scared $128 million out of people by showing them almost nothing, then fumbled the part where you finally had to explain it.”
MaXXXine
“You closed the trilogy with neon, sleaze, and Mia Goth, and she carried the bag while the rest of you napped.”
In a Violent Nature
“You handed the camera to the killer and told the genre to watch its own reflection. Bold, slow, and occasionally a snooze.”
Late Night with the Devil
“A 1977 talk show goes to hell on live TV, and David Dastmalchian hosts the apocalypse with a TV smile that never quite reaches his eyes.”
The Passenger
“A two-hander road trip with Kyle Gallner holding a knife to the whole movie's throat, and it mostly works.”
Talk to Me
“Two YouTube pranksters made the slickest seance movie of the decade, and the joke is on every studio that ignored them.”
Terrifier 2
“You crowdfunded a movie that made people faint in the aisles and turned a silent clown into a slasher icon, so I cannot pretend you failed.”
Smile
“A grin-curse that was supposed to die on streaming instead grinned its way to $217 million, which is the scariest twist in the movie.”
Pearl
“You shot a secret prequel back-to-back with X, dressed it in Technicolor, and let Mia Goth monologue her way into horror history.”
Barbarian
“You turned a double-booked Airbnb into one of the nastiest bait-and-switches in modern horror, and you did it for four million dollars.”
Bodies Bodies Bodies
“You turned a party game into a clout-culture autopsy, and the corpses were funnier than the mystery.”
Nope
“You shot a UFO Western on IMAX and dared us to look up, which is the whole terrifying point.”
The Black Phone
“You turned a Joe Hill short story into a $161 million Blumhouse machine, and you did it on the back of two kids and one terrifying mask.”
X
“A 1970s grindhouse throwback that knows desire and decay are the same horror movie.”
Midsommar
“You turned a breakup into a folk-horror nightmare lit like a vitamin D commercial.”
Us
“Your follow-up to Get Out swings for a doppelganger invasion and mostly lands the punch.”
Hereditary
“A grief autopsy that happens to summon a cult, and your first feature, no less. Show-off.”
A Quiet Place
“You turned 'shut up' into a $340 million blockbuster. Jim from the office, who knew.”
It
“You floated a 700 million dollar coming-of-age movie that occasionally remembers to be scary.”
Get Out
“A meet-the-parents nightmare that won an Oscar and rewired what mainstream horror is allowed to be about.”
The Witch
“You made a flawless 1630s nightmare, then watched audiences boo it for not having a clown.”
It Follows
“You turned a thing that just walks toward you into the best 2 million dollars horror ever spent.”
The Babadook
“You made a grief allegory so good the monster moved out and became a pride icon.”

Sally roasts more than monsters. Drop yours.
