Fantasy, sci-fi, and comedy are well represented on Netflix, but the horror section is the most stunning. Overshadowed by the library’s vastness are excellent originals, little-known treasures and timeless favorites as well as noteworthy foreign contributions.
Fingers crossed for a spine-tingling chiller to be found below!
A word of warning: all of these movies have a Metacritic score of 70 or above.
Top 5 Horror Movies to watch on Netflix
Here the the list of 5 horror movies which our editor has watched and shortlisted for those who are the fond of watching the horror movies. These are those movies which i think havn’t watched or may be watched
The Killing of a Sacred Deer
This film’s dark undertones may spoil your meal after seeing The Lobster, so put off watching The Killing of a Sacred Deer until later in the day.
Unthinkable decisions are presented to their victims in psychological horror films. When Barry Keoghan’s Martin enters their life, Nicole Kidman and Colin Farrell get inexplicably unwell. In the event that you want your horror tales to be based on real-world atrocities rather than otherworldly ones, this is the film for you.
Storyline of “The Killing of a Sacred Deer”
A close and empathic friendship is formed between Martin, 16, and Dr. Steven Murphy, a respected cardiothoracic surgeon, after Martin’s father dies in the operating room. Martin’s orphaned kid will soon get the favour of Dr Steven’s immaculate family, even though a hazy, yet unnerving emotion overshadows Martin’s honest goal right from the beginning. While at the same time, the innocents begin to suffer as a result of the harsh and pitiless punishment that strikes the family. In the end, only an inconceivable and unendurable decision requiring a pure sacrifice will be able to cleanse the soul as the sins of one burden the entire family. However, in order to get relief, one must first acknowledge their wrongdoing.

The Exorcist
Have you seen what many people consider to be the greatest horror film ever made? Ellen Burstyn plays Chris MacNeil, a wealthy actress whose daughter is possessed by a demonic spirit in 1973’s The Exorcist. I don’t know who to call.
The exorcism will be performed by two Catholic priests. For the first time, a horror picture has been nominated for an Academy Award for Best Picture, thanks to The Exorcist.

His House
It’s a horror that comes right to your doorstep. His House tells the narrative of Bol and Rial, a Sudanese immigrant couple, as they try to adapt to their new life in an English town. His House isn’t your typical horror movie, with its focus on psychic terrors from the past, so don’t go in expecting a basic shock. Powerful and moving piece.
Storyline of “His House”
Despite their successful escape from war-torn South Sudan, a refugee couple finds it difficult to adjust to their new life in a little English village where an evil lurks beneath the surface.

Raw
It’s possible that Julia Ducournau will become your new favourite female director after watching this film. When Justine, a vegetarian in her first year of veterinary school, succumbs to the pressure of her peers and eats raw meat, she ends up with an itchy, red rash on every part of her body. An indie film that deals with identity issues in a strong and symbolic way is a must-see on Netflix.
Storyline for “RAW”
Justine, who was educated as a strict vegetarian, begins her veterinary studies as a freshman at the prestigious Saint-Exupéry Veterinary School. Just as she is about to leave the family home, Justine is thrust into a bizarre new world of unusual school rituals and cruel initiation tests, and before long, she finds herself having to question her unwavering herbivorous convictions.
A new and equally morbid craving for meat will emerge as Justine descends deeper and deeper into a hidden world of uncharted animalistic tendencies, transforming her into a completely different being.
But now that her corporeal awakening has finally been completed, is there any point in denying her hunger for raw flesh any longer?
IMDB User Rating for “Raw”
The Berlin Syndrome
Cate Shortland built her name as a director of superb indie films before Black Widow, such as The Berlin Syndrome. Teresa Palmer plays Clare Havel, a young Australian backpacker who meets a man who takes her captive in his flat in this psychological horror film. Captive and captor engage in a cat-and-mouse game. The Berlin Syndrome is a riveting thriller, despite its sluggish pace in a tight space.
Storyline of “The Berlin Syndrome”
A reporter from Australia named Clare is on vacation in Berlin when she meets Andi, a fascinating local man who sparks an immediate attraction between the two of them. After that, it’s a night of sensuality. However, what first appears to be the beginning of a romance takes an unexpected and dangerous turn the following morning when Clare awakens to find Andi has left for work and locked her in his apartment, prompting her to call the police. Of course, it’s a simple mistake to make, but Andi has no intention of letting her go without a fight this time. Ever.
