The holiday weekend is here, bringing with it the perfect opportunity to watch more horror. Compared to Christmas or Halloween, though, Easter is fairly light on horror offerings.

Of course, there are the perennial favorites like the Easter segment in anthology Holidays, and the Easter set found footage twist on Dante’s Inferno, As Above, So Below, along with a handful of killer Easter bunny titles. 

Here are five more Easter horror movies to add to your weekend watchlists. From Satan-loving teen witches to charming horror-comedies to creature features from outer space, these titles make the holidays delightfully weird and bloody.

Read on for where to watch them.

Critters 2: The Main Course – Hoopla, Plex, Tubi

If there’s a quintessential Easter horror movie to watch this week, it’s Critters 2. Plucky hero Brad (Scott Grimes) returns to the small town of Grover’s Bend to visit Grandma just in time for the town’s Easter celebration. Too bad someone mixed up Crite eggs for regular Easter eggs. The pint-sized critters set their sights on the Easter bunny before letting loose their insatiable appetite on the town. Think of it as a delightfully entertaining Easter buffet. Co-written by David Twohy (Warlock, Pitch Black) and director Mick Garris (The Stand, Masters of Horror), Critters 2 makes clever use of the holiday. 

Family Dinner – Fandango at Home, Fawesome, Hoopla, Kanopy, Plex, Prime Video, Screambox

Writer/Director Peter Hengl’s feature debut combines the discomfort and cringe of awkward family dynamics at the dinner table with Easter holiday folk horror. Fifteen-year-old Simi (Nina Katlein) arrives at her Aunt Claudia’s (Pia Hierzegger) house just before Easter, hoping to get her aunt’s help to lose weight. Aunt Claudia’s strict caloric restrictions become the least of Simi’s problems when Claudia’s family starts to behave strangely. Easter brings the slow-simmering folk horror to a roaring boil. Fraught psychological dread explodes in violence.

Little Witches – Moviesphere+

1996 brought not one but two teen witch horror movies: The Craft and director Jane Simpson’s Little Witches. While the former is the stronger film of the two by far, the latter leans into R-rated occult horror. Teens stuck at their Catholic girls’ school over Easter break get into more trouble than they ever bargained for when they stumble into a buried Satanic temple and conjure up a malevolent entity. It’s a ’90s B-movie, filled with teen coven in-fighting and demonic battles, with a surprising cast that includes Clea Duvall, Zelda Rubinstein, Jack Nance, and Jennifer Rubin.

Pooka Lives! – Disney+, Hulu

The follow-up to the Christmas-centric Pooka! resurrects its creepypasta mascot for Easter. Directed by Alejandro Brugués and scripted by Ryan Copple, the plot sees a group of friends create a viral meme involving Pooka, unwittingly conjuring up the killer mascot for some horror insanity. Social commentary on cancel culture and internet behavior anchors the comedic monster movie that leads Pooka to get even weirder than before. What’s Easter without a killer bunny?

Queens of the Dead – AMC+, Shudder

Tina Romero, the daughter of late horror master George A. Romero (Night of the Living Dead), makes her own mark on the zombie genre with Queens of the Dead. A zombie apocalypse breaks out in Brooklyn on the night of a giant warehouse party, where an eclectic group of drag queens, club kids, and frenemies must put aside their drama and use their unique skills to fight against the brain-thirsty, scrolling undead. The horror-comedy takes place over Easter, with the holiday’s familiar iconography providing the perfect backdrop to glam-gore fun.
