The perfect scream date night is in your hands: here are the 10 best recent horror movies you’ve likely missed out on.

10. Talk to Me (2022)

In the race for the most self-dangerous groups of people, bored teenagers are definitely in the Top 5. When friends discover a ceramic hand artifact that allows them to communicate with spirits, it becomes their favorite pastime… But things go south quickly when they summon the ghost of one of the girls’ deceased mother.

Watch Talk to Me on Hulu, Netflix, and Apple TV.

9. Pearl (2022)

It’s Mia Goth. You don’t need to know much more, really — but we’ll tell you, anyway. A mentally unstable girl stuck on her family’s farm dreams of fame and money but is forced to take care of her dysfunctional family. One day, she decides that enough is enough: she will go to the audition, and those who stand in her way will suffer.

Watch Pearl on Netflix and Prime Video.

8. Orphan: First Kill (2022)

A prequel to the iconic horror, First Kill explores Esther’s story. When an adult woman who looks like a child escapes a psychiatric ward, she “returns” to a family that lost their daughter, her lookalike. A wealthy and prosperous family has no idea what’s coming for them, and only the mother sees through Esther’s web of lies.

Watch Orphan: First Kill on Netflix and Prime Video.

7. Evil Dead Rise (2023)

There are many reasons to not let your kids stray away too far, but their bringing back an insidious ancient tome containing dark spirits is among the most overlooked. Once the malignant forces break free, they turn what was supposed to be a merry family reunion into the most messed-up, gory, and sickening sequence of events.

Watch Evil Dead Rise on Max, Hulu, Netflix, and Prime Video.

6. Scream VI (2023)

Jenna Ortega. There you go. For those who are still reading after the namedrop, we don’t know what you’re expecting to learn: Scream VI is your typical Scream movie, so if you’re a fan of the franchise, give it a spin. Ghostface returns again to further scar and scare those he’s already traumatized, and his identity is still mysterious.

Watch Scream VI on Hulu, Netflix, and Prime Video.

5. Hellraiser (2022)

Remember, folks: no matter how low you think you may be, there’s always a chance to make things worse if you’re making stupid decisions. A hopeless addict and her useless boyfriend decide to steal ancient valuables and stumble upon a strange puzzle box. When trying to solve it, they let sadistic demons loose and rampant…

Watch Hellraiser on Hulu and Prime Video.

4. X (2022)

If you’re a fan of the new scream queens, you’re in luck: in X, you’ll get both Mia Goth and Jenna Ortega. When a group of young “filmmakers” rents a house from an elderly couple, they break their promise to behave and try shooting an adult movie there… But as it turns out, the old folks aren’t exactly harmless. The gore begins.

Watch X on Max, Netflix, and Prime Video.

3. Scream (2022)

There have been one too many Scream movies, but this time, we’re going meta. Having watched the popular horror films, a high school student becomes a victim of an attack eerily similar to what she saw on the screen. Someone’s hiding behind the mask of Ghostface, and whoever they are, they intend to reenact the films’ events.

Watch Scream on Max, Netflix, Apple TV, and Prime Video.

2. Fear Street Part Two: 1978 (2021)

The Fear Street movies are a trilogy, but since we only wanted to pick one, we went with the personal preference here. The 1978 prequel sees the only survivor of the old-time massacre recall the tragic event to two young people willing to understand and end the curse. But as the story unfolds, they start suspecting something sinister.

Watch Fear Street Part Two: 1978 on Netflix.

1. A Quiet Place: Part II (2021)

At home, the Abbott family has learned to adapt to the sound-oriented beasts lurking around. But as they’re forced into the world beyond their little house’s confinements, they realize that those monsters are the only ones haunting the living. Suddenly, silence is not enough to survive, and they have to adapt once again to stay alive.
