Best new horror movies of 2025

1. Companion: Drew Hancock’s debut is a darkly comic, satirical horror about a sentient AI companion spiraling out of control. Set in a disturbingly near future, it features a standout performance from Sophie Thatcher and blends campy chaos with sharp commentary.

2. Nosferatu: Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu is a dark, erotically-charged reimagining of the 1922 classic, blending gothic horror with psychic obsession. With Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, and a chilling Bill Skarsgård as the vampire, it’s a moody, menacing, and genuinely scary update steeped in dread.

3. Presence: Steven Soderbergh’s ghost drama offers a haunting twist on the genre, told from the perspective of a silent spirit observing a secretive family. More melancholic than scary, it’s a quietly unsettling and emotionally resonant take on the haunted house story.

4. The Monkey: Osgood Perkins adapts Stephen King’s story in The Monkey, where a cursed toy causes gory deaths with each wind-up. Featuring Theo James as both good and evil twins, it’s a bloody, tongue-in-cheek B-movie that leans into cartoonish horror fun without aiming for depth.

5. Wolf Man: Leigh Whannell returns with Wolf Man, a moody and gory werewolf tale starring Christopher Abbott as a devoted dad who encounters a deadly lycanthrope. While it doesn’t match The Invisible Man, it’s a stylish, thoughtful, and fun horror outing.

6. The Dammed: Set in a harsh 1800s winter, this eerie Nordic noir follows workers haunted by a deadly choice involving shipwreck survivors. Starring Odessa Young and Joe Cole, it’s a slow-burning psychological horror that builds chilling tension in a claustrophobic setting.

7. Drop: A tense tech thriller meets home invasion horror, this film offers a gripping ride as a mother follows sinister airdropped instructions to save her son. While not as tight as it aims to be, it’s a solid, suspenseful Friday night watch from Happy Death Day director Christopher Landon.

8. Get Away: A British family travels to a remote Swedish island for a creepy ritual called Karantän, encountering bizarre and possibly murderous locals. Written by Nick Frost, the film combines genre savvy and sharp humor, with Aisling Bea shining as the standout mom. Although it loses momentum towards the end, unexpected twists and over-the-top gore maintain its entertaining and playful tone.

9. The Woman in the Yard: Not a sequel to The Woman in the Window, this grief-driven horror follows a mother haunted after a tragic crash. Despite plot flaws, Danielle Deadwyler impresses, and Jaume Collet-Serra delivers a watchable, if not essential, thriller with eerie touches.

🎬 Movies to watch in April

These are some of the latest movies to watch in theaters and on streaming in April:

The Bondsman:
One ticket to Hell with Kevin Bacon, please. In this Prime Video series, Bacon plays a bounty hunter who is resurrected by the Devil to escort home some demons who have made their way up to our world. But this doesn't mean Bacon belongs to the land of the living anymore, either. It’s the first big gig for creator Grainger David, who made industry waves with a short called The Chair.

Devil May Cry:
Capcom’s hit video game Devil May Cry is getting an animated adaptation from Adi Shankar, known for Castlevania. The eight-episode series follows demon hunter Dante (voiced by Johnny Yong Bosch) as he battles dark forces, unaware the world’s fate depends on him. Animation is handled by Studio Mir, praised for its acclaimed work on The Legend of Korra and The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf.

Pulse:
Netflix debuts its first medical procedural this month, set in a Miami hospital where two resident doctors navigate a complex relationship amid an approaching hurricane. The series stars Willa Fitzgerald and Colin Woodell, with “Lost” co-creator Carlton Cuse and Zoe Robyn promising a cast of characters viewers will want to root for.

A Minecraft Movie:
After over a decade, Minecraft is finally hitting the big screen with Jack Black as Steve. The film follows four misfits learning to mine, craft, and imagine their way through the blocky world. Directed by Jared Hess, it promises to bring beloved game elements like creepers and animals to life, appealing to both gamers and general audiences.

The White Lotus:
Season 3 of The White Lotus ramps up the awkward drama, delivering some jaw-dropping mid-season moments. Creator Mike White ups the cringe factor, especially with shocking revelations about the Ratliff brothers’ boat party antics, leaving viewers as speechless as Walton Goggins during Episode 5’s monologue.

Some other movies to watch include:
Mobland, Freaky Tales, The Luckiest Man In America, The Handmaid’s Tale, Black Mirror, Hacks, G20….
