A Horror Movie For Every Halloween Mood

Huff Post  

Horror movies should be a year-round affair, but maybe you’re looking for a spine-tingling good time now that Halloween is upon us. It’s a complicated dynamic: Women in horror — or sometimes just one woman, mythologized as the “final girl” — often emerge triumphant despite being ravaged. Both editions of “Funny Games” — 1997’s takes place in Austria and 2007’s in America — feature two young men wearing preppy white polos who torment a vacationing family. We can’t overstate the way “Night of the Living Dead” accelerated horror’s search for meaningfulness, nor how its crisp black-and-white aesthetic showed what could be achieved on a shoestring budget. Starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Harrison Ford as an uneasy married couple who may or may not be living in a haunted house, “What Lies Beneath” deservedly became one of 2000’s highest-grossing releases.
