The Addams Family is a Halloween classic, thanks to its brilliant mix of the macabre and the zany.

Adapted from the famous book by Stephen King, this That version 2017 is a modern and effective rereading of this horror classic. Andy Muschietti's film frightens as much as it fascinates with memorable and deliciously traumatic scenes and images, and a terrifying Bill Skarsgård in the role of Pennywise. A new reference of terror.

Get Out

Netflix

Release date

Gender
Thriller
Duration
104 mins

Mixed couple, Chris and his girlfriend Rose have the perfect love affair. So the time has come to meet the in-laws, Missy and Dean on a weekend trip to their estate upstate. Chris begins by thinking that the tense atmosphere is linked to their difference in skin color, but very quickly a series of increasingly disturbing incidents allows him to discover the unimaginable.

Released in 2017, Get Out was a real shock and a surprise hit in theaters. First directorial debut of comic actor Jordan Peele (Us, Nope), the film is a gem of psychological horror, and a corrosive commentary on racism under Obama's America. An intelligent thriller, which delivers its unease and twists and turns brilliantly, and which will keep you captive to your sofa until the last second.

Carrie is a tortured teenager, uncomfortable with herself and completely unaware of the extent of her telekinetic power. But when the bullying from her mother, a real psychotic bigot, and her sadistic classmates exceeds the limits, Carrie will unleash the most terrible revenge.

This adaptation of Stephen King's novel directed by Brian De Palma (Scarface, The Untouchables) still remains a monument of horror, 50 years after its release. A story of adolescence shrouded in fantasy, which culminates in a bloody and jubilant finale. A classic to watch again and again without moderation, notably thanks to a transcendent Sissy Spacek.

At the helm, Frenchman Alexandre Aja delivers inspired horror sequences, and an effective feature film ideal for Halloween.

As a strange mist seems to envelop a small Maine town, some residents find themselves trapped in a supermarket.

How to spend Halloween without Stephen King? Adapted from his short story Haze published in 1980, The Mist mixes fantasy, horror and social thriller in a film behind closed doors, where we quickly realize that the monsters are not necessarily only outside in the mist outside. A chilling portrait of human nature, and a small monument of tension created by Frank Darabont (The Green Line). Unfairly overlooked, The Mist is one of the best Stephen King adaptations.

When Wes Craven, director of The Hill has eyes And Freddy, the claws of the nightrevisits the slasher genre from the 90s, it creates another horror classic. With the iconic Ghostface at its center, Scream intelligently mixes teenage dramas with its serial killer story, and delivers an unmissable thriller.

The Disney studio and director Rob Minkoff (The Lion King) brings one of its famous attractions to the big screen, and delivers a fantastic family comedy, where we shiver as much as we laugh. As master of ceremonies, Eddie Murphy does his clown act wonderfully, without forgetting the final touch of emotion which makes Haunted Mansion and the 999 Ghosts a real Proust madeleine to see again and again.

Seth Brundle is a scientist who studies teleportation. When he manages to make a great discovery, he decides to test it on himself. But unknown to him, a common housefly manages to get inside the teleportation device with him, mixing the insect's DNA with that of the scientist.

Sage Remake The Black Fly from 1958, The Fly by David Cronenberg transcends its subject to offer a gory, graphic and radical adaptation, in the pure spirit of the 80s. A masterpiece of science fiction and the body horror subgenre, the film is a terrifying dive into the transformation of a man (Jeff Goldblum) into an animal. A classic.
