70 Best Netflix Horror Movies to Watch Right Now

Looking to score some Netflix and chills in the weeks leading up to Halloween night? The streaming service has enough horror movies to keep you trembling well into November — there are more scary movies on Netflix than there are hours in a month!

We’ve narrowed down the selection of horror movies streaming on Netflix to the very best according to Tomatometer. Netflix’s horror movie collection includes chilling originals (1922, Gerald’s Game), recent critically acclaimed indie theatrical releases (The Babadook, The Witch), and horror classics (Hellraiser, The Sixth Sense).

The following Netflix horror films are either Fresh or Certified Fresh, making them the best horror films of the bunch. We’ve ordered them by an adjusted Tomatometer score, which takes into account the number of reviews each film has; for example, while 2017’s Creep 2 has a 100% score, it has only 16 reviews currently, and so 2015’s Creep, which has a 96% score on 24 reviews, is ranked higher.
