Make everyday a fright night with these spooky films on Netflix best enjoyed this Halloween season…

We’ve given a quick 20-second review for each of these, our favourite fear-feeding Netflix Halloween picks.

*Parental guidance on all the below is strongly advised.

Final Destination 5

The fifth and final instalment of the saga actually received pretty decent reviews. Watch through spliced fingers as the show’s protagonists attempt to take on death itself.

Get Out

This Oscar-winning horror riffs with racial tensions in modern America. A superbly crafted directorial debut from Jordan Peele. We’d go as far as saying this is the best all-round horror story so far this century.

Bird Box

Last year’s post-apocalyptic thriller used the deprivation of sight as its fear device. Malorie Hayes (Sandra Bullock) tries to protect children from evil entities that, when looked at, drive you insane.

The Shining

Written by Stephen King, directed by Stanley Kubrick and starring Jack Nicholson. It’s 144 minutes of nerve-jangling bleakness, a ghost story told with microscopic attention to detail.

The Conjuring 2

Based around reported tales of the ‘Enfield Poltergeist’ in London, England. Whether or not you believe the girls were making it all up, the source material laid the framework for one harrowing, award-winning movie.

Annabelle

A prequel to the first Conjuring movie. Possessed soul-craving porcelain doll makes life extremely inconvenient for new parents.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina

This reboot sees the half-human, half-witch Sabrina balancing two worlds: the standard day to day dramas of teen life and her family’s legacy, the Church of Night.

The Haunting of Hill House

Flashing between past and present, a family confronts haunting memories of their old home. Strong elements of psychological thriller intermesh seamlessly with classic horror moments.

The Ritual

A nice little hiking trip in the Swedish wilderness. What could possibly go wrong?

The Babysitter

There’s a reason you should always collect references for potential babysitters. Sometimes, as demonstrated in this classic horror movie, they’re part of an evil cult intent on enslaving humanity.

1922

From the pen of Stephen King. A farmer confesses to his wife’s murder, but her death is just the beginning of this disturbing yarn.

Cargo

Martin Freeman becomes infected with a zombie plague. He must wander the Australian outback and find somebody capable of protecting his infant daughter before the sniffles become something more sinister.
