Horror with creative kills. Updated weekly.
A collection of Movies produced by Blumhouse.
*Last update 31/08/2023
The genre survived in the 21st century thanks to the direct to the DVD market, the rise video streaming services and advances in digital filmmaking lowering the costs of making movies.
There was a short return to its exploitation roots, experimenting by new filmmakers, but mostly really bad low budget movies and remakes/reboots. Though there are a few gems to be discovered.
Genre definition: "Definition: A slasher movie is characterized by a villain who is skilled at killing and uses weapons other than firearms to stalk and target a group of young individuals, resulting in a significant number of victims. This villain may be either human or formerly human."
If I missed any movie you think that should be on this list or if you find some obvious mistakes please let me know and I'll make the appropriate adjustments.

One of the best novels I have ever read is Stephen King’s “It”. The epic fantasy-horror spans decades but its core story takes place in two time periods separated by 30 years. In the novel’s early part, a group of children band together to battle a monster terrorising their town. As social outcasts to varying degrees, they are brought together by their collective insecurities and pubescent anxieties, as well as their individual experiences of “It” and as King would have us believe a force of “good” that counters the pervading force of “evil”, to fight the “beast” and save themselves and their town.
A group of young teenagers go to battle with Stephen King's monstrous child killer Pennywise in Tommy Lee Wallace's "It".
A group of young teenagers go to battle with Stephen King’s monstrous child killer Pennywise in Tommy Lee Wallace’s “It”.
As children in the 1960s they enter the sewers underneath their town to find the monster’s lair. Armed with one of their mother’s silver earrings (their “silver bullets”) and a slingshot, the group find the monster in its guise as Pennywise the Clown and shoot it. They cries out in pain and disappears down a drain. They believe they’ve killed it but just to be sure, based on its thirty-year killing cycles, they agree that if it returns, they will regroup and battle it again. When mysterious murders start up three decades later, the group, each of its members gone their separate ways and living in different parts of the country, come back together to make good on their promise as children.
It’s a wonderful story with childhood friendship at its heart and one of the great fictional villains. The film version – a made-for-TV two-part mini-series – works quite well at times but is far better when it concentrates on the characters as children, as opposed to their adult counterparts. I’m definitely fond of the film adaptation but as cinematic depictions of King’s work go it ranks well below the likes of The Shining, Misery and Carrie. However, it is a perfect example of how children have played an important role in films (or works of popular fiction like King’s novel) made primarily for adults. And the horror genre has produced some of the finest…
Underrated/Underseen Crime Flick Picks of the New Millennium
All crime flicks listed here: small films, foreign language imports, high-profile flops or victims of unjust critical dismissal. Some were even moderately successful, but deserve to be in more conversations, others are new, but under-exposed. Didn't love every one of these, but they all have a reason to be here.
