The past decade has seen some truly great horror movies, including the arrival of some outstanding new directors like Jordan Peele, Ari Aster, and more. Looking back at the past 10 years shows how good horror has been.

Ever since covid I find horror has especially been on a roll. Some of my favourites have came out the last few years.

    Barbarian had an interesting premise but really fell off the rails in the second half. I accidentally giggled when I saw the rubber boobs come out.

    Even though 2025 wasn't on this list, I really liked Weapons for the social commentary. Though a few scenes were a bit hamfisted, it really nails the distrust in schools, struggles with addiction, brutality, violence and feelings of loss after school shootings. The supernatural mechanics were intriguing, and the antagonist was so interesting that I'd like to see a whole movie about them.

    Also, the dude who played a drug addict did an excellent job. He really knocked it out of the park, and him breaking into the home was a brilliant film mechanic. Genuinely, that film had some amazing horror scenes that didn't rely on cheap jump scares or CGI monsters. I think that's what I like best about this movie.

    Smile 2 is the best 2024?

    Good list otherwise.

    Picking one per year seems arbitrary.

    I'm not a horror movie fan but I took a look at what came out in 2024, looks like a decent list.

    I've still yet to see Smile 2, but I did this out of curiousity :)
