While Netflix boasted their own Halloween selection, the amount of horror films added to their streaming service last month was nothing short of disappointing. And while November’s list isn’t much better, there are a handful of really good movies that you’ll be able to watch over and over all month long. Thanks, Paramount…
Candyman 2: Farewell to the Flesh
Directed by Bill Condon and starring Tony Todd, Tony Todd, William O’Leary, Bill Nunn, Matt Clark. The Candyman moves on to New Orleans and starts his horrific murders once more. This time, his intended victim is a school teacher whose father was killed by the Candyman, and her brother was wrongly accused of the murders.
Cujo
While Donna and Vic Trenton struggle to save their rocky marriage, their son Tad befriends the loveable 200-lb St. Bernard who belongs to their mechanic. But what they don’t realise is that a bat bite has transformed Cujo from a docile pup to a vicious killer.
Ravenous
It’s a recipe for nonstop action and excitement when the inhabitants of an isolated military outpost go up against a marauding band of cannibals in a deadly struggle for survival! Ever watchful of the enemies who might literally tear them apart, the uneasy alliance of soldiers must fight brutal elements of the Sierra Nevada wilderness — as well as their own murderous instincts to stay alive. Directed by Antonia Bird (Priest), this white-knuckle thriller stars Guy Pearce (Iron Man 3, Prometheus), Robert Carlyle (Once Upon A Time) and David Arquette (Scream 4).
Stephen King’s Thinner
A 109-year-old gypsy, hell-bent on revenge, exacts a curse so shocking it compels its victim to gorge himself in an effort to avoid shrinking away to nothingness. With time running out and a torture so bizarre and powerful, even death seems a more likely option.
Tales from the Darkside: The Movie
“The Wraparound Story” concerns a little boy who spins all the tales…to distract a modern-day witch who wants to pop him in the oven! In “Lot 249,” a malevolent mummy gives new meaning to “final exams” when he awakens to wreak revenge on unsuspecting student bodies. A furry black kitty is really the “Cat From Hell,” and a “Lover’s Vow” brings a stone gargoyle to murderous life.
