If you’re in the mood for a spooky movie night but aren’t quite sure what to watch, then here’s some good news: Netflix has a huge variety of freaky films on its platform, from classic ’80s chillers to modern horror gems.
The streamer’s selection is made up of both original fare – such as the Fear Street trilogy and Zack Snyder’s horror heist Army of the Dead – and some of the scariest films to hit the multiplexes in the last few years.
Films that have recently been added to that catalogue include the second installment of Andrés Muschietti’s two-part IT adaptation, and the terrific The Invisible Man, which offered a contemporary take on the classic Universal monster.
Meanwhile, for those who are faint of heart – or just need a laugh – there are also a few slightly lighter options, with Edgar Wright’s enduring zombie comedy Shaun of the Dead perhaps the pick of the bunch in that regard.
The RadioTimes.com experts have picked out some of the very best streaming scares available on Netflix which will at least remove the horror of having to scroll through the options for hours.
