Daniel Boyer is list writer for Collider who primarily focus on films and television shows related to the Action, Horror, and science fiction genres.
Some of cinematic history's most compelling horror movies aren't always the most terrifying. Since the dawn of motion pictures, horror has become a goldmine for entertainment. It's a genre with unlimited potential where creative horror filmmakers can work their magic, bringing to life incredible and engaging stories that leave a lasting effect on audiences.
A unique combination of the horror, comedy, and psychological thriller genres, The Menu tells a spectacular story full of tension and suspense that's also incredibly funny and darkly humorous. It doesn't rely on jumpscares, gore, or over-the-top violence to tell an engaging horror story; instead, it lets tension and dread do all the heavy lifting. Thanks to its gripping themes and hilarious social commentary, The Menu is slowly on its way to becoming a modern horror classic.
House is a wacky, bonkers horror comedy that never lets up on the absurdity. While there are a few graphic and pretty unique kills scattered throughout, they're all mostly played for laughs and only complement the film's darkly hilarious tone. It's far from genuinely scary, but House remains a one-of-a-kind story with a few creative effects and a comedic plot that certainly entertains.
Bela Lugosi, a name synonymous with the classic Universal Monsters verse, gives a captivating performance as the titular Transylvanian vampire, developing characteristics and iconic lines that would become staples of the character for years to come. As with many black-in-white horror movies, this 1931 original has admittedly lost much of its scare factor over the years. Even so, it endures as a horror classic that any cinema lover could easily recognize.
