The 22 best horror movies of 2024, and where to watch them
We've had strong back-to-back years for horror, with 2022 and 2023 both containing movies that'll likely be scaring people for decades to come. And the good news is, 2024 looks set to carry on the trend.
From the religious horror of Scott Beck and Bryan Woods' Heretic and Arkasha Stevenson's The First Omen to the creeping dread of Daniel Kokotajlo's Starve Acre and Parker Finn's Smile 2, we've rounded up the strongest picks of the year.
Counting down to our very favourite, here are the best horror movies of 2024.

TrapTrap may be more of a straight-up thriller than a horror flick, but for its serial killer shenanigans, it earns a spot on this list. From the concept alone — a murderer must escape a pop concert designed to trap him — you know you're in for a blast. Yet M. Night Shyamalan takes this premise to even more bonkers levels, all fueled by Josh Hartnett's pitch-perfect turn as a serial killer on the verge of snapping. I'll never forget his bizarre suggestion that he and his daughter Riley (Ariel Donoghue) just pop through a trap door in the concert floor because it would be "cool." Or how pop star Lady Raven (Saleka, Shyamalan's own daughter) suddenly snaps into detective mode. Or how Trap doubles as a film about the anxieties of fatherhood — and somehow pulls it off. — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter
How to watch: Trap is available to rent or purchase on Prime Video and Apple TV+.
21. The First OmenTaking on Immaculate in the nun-themed horror arena and winning, The First Omen acts as a prequel to The Omen franchise, taking things back to 1969 Rome as Margaret (Nell Tiger Free) battles terrifying visions in a new convent.
"In the end, The First Omen offers generous splashes of gore, jump scares, and dread," wrote Mashable's Kristy Puchko in her review. "So if you're up for seeing something more spooky than scary, or more haunting than horrifying, this religious thriller will scratch that itch with a long, putrid claw." — Sam Haysom, Deputy UK Editor
How to watch: The First Omen is now streaming on Disney+.
20. AbigailA group of criminals find themselves trapped in a house with a monstrous little ballerina in this vampire horror/comedy that Mashable's Kristy Puchko described in her review as "a fresh tale of predator and prey" that's "pretty damn fun".
"Despite the sentimental detours, stodgy staging, and indulgent pacing, Abigail is a blast," she wrote. "It's exactly the kind of gonzo, gory, goofy crowdpleaser you'd hope for, considering its very well-promoted premise." — S.H.
How to watch: Abigail is now streaming on Prime Video and is available for rent or purchase on Apple TV+.
19. Alien: RomulusDirector Fede Álvarez takes the Alien franchise back to basics in this story of young space colonists exploring a space station overrun with Xenomorphs. Alien: Romulus falters at points, with an overreliance on fan service (including one ill-advised cameo) threatening to undercut the film's best moments. But when Romulus hits, it hits. Facehuggers, chestbursters, set pieces bursting at the seams with gloppy goodness… It's enough to make you hoot, holler, and hide in terror. And that's all before Romulus hits us with a gonzo third act featuring one of the franchise's gnarliest creatures yet. — B.E.
How to watch: Alien: Romulus is now streaming on Hulu.
18. Apartment 7AA Rosemary's Baby prequel was a big gamble to take, but it paid off. Set months before the events of the 1968 classic, Relic director Natalie Erika James takes minor character Terry (Julia Garner), a neighbor of Rosemary who only has a single scene in the original, and fleshes her story out to terrifying effect.
"With Relic, Natalie Erika James spun an intimate tale of mother-daughter relationships and family curses into a rivetingly scary thriller," wrote Mashable's Kristy Puchko in her review. "Here, she uses that gift of emotional intelligence and skill for crafting unsettling scenes to tell a story that's familiar yet all the more frightening for it. We know where Terry's story will end because of Rosemary's Baby. Yet James keeps us at the edge of our seats as she expertly spins a web of rich drama and sly horror, working in heartfelt conversations, shattering jump scares, and defiant dazzle. From Polanski's foundation, she builds a glittering tale of girlhood stolen that is sick, stunning, and horrifyingly relevant." — S.H.
How to watch: Apartment 7A is now streaming on Paramount+.
17. MonolithMicro-budget Monolith follows a disgraced journalist trying to revive her career with a podcast delving into the unexplained. But when a story about mysterious black bricks lands in her inbox, she finds herself getting sucked into something she genuinely can't make sense of.
"It almost sounds like a challenge: Can you make a feature-length movie with only one on-screen actor, one location, and a budget of less than half a million?" I wrote in my review for Mashable. "Written by Lucy Campbell and directed by Matt Vesely, eerie sci-fi mystery Monolith exists within these potentially tricky parameters. Almost the entire movie takes place in a modern, isolated house in the rolling Adelaide Hills, South Australia, following a disgraced journalist (Lily Sullivan) as she yarn-balls a weird global enigma for her new podcast series. The film could easily have been a dismally failed experiment, but Monolith's logistical restrictions actually help it shine, adding a claustrophobia and sense of realism that only heightens the core mystery."
Once you've watched the movie, see if you agree with our interpretation of the ending. — S.H.
How to watch: Monolith is now streaming on Prime Video in the U.S., on Now TV in the UK, and on Binge in Australia.
16. Starve AcreDaniel Kokotajlo's nightmare folk horror – based on Andrew Michael Hurley's novel of the same name – will make you never look at rabbits the same way again. Following a university professor (Matt Smith) and his wife (Morfydd Clark) in the aftermath of their son's tragic death, the movie deals in local legends and the mysterious presence of a figure named Jack Gray — an unseen spirit that haunted their son and seems determined to continue haunting the couple. A truly upsetting meditation on unimaginable grief with some stunning performances and horrifying moments (if you're a bit confused after the ending, we have an explainer on Mashable).* — S.H.
How to watch: Starve Acre is now streaming on BFI Player via Prime Video in the UK and is available to rent or purchase on Prime Video in the U.S.
15. Caddo LakeOK, so you could definitely argue that this one is more sci-fi/mystery than horror, but the combination of missing children and weird time distortion is scary enough for it to make the cut. Celine Held and Logan George's genre-blender follows Paris (Dylan O'Brien), a man struggling to understand the strange illness that led to his mother's death, and Ellie (Eliza Scanlen), a student desperately trying to find her missing stepsister. What follows is a tense and twisty reality-bending puzzle that you may require an ending explainer to make sense of. — S.H.
How to watch: Caddo Lake is now streaming on Max.
14. MadSOne of the most uniquely chilling horror movies of 2024 was this biting zombie thriller out of France, all shot as if in one continuous take. Centering on a devil-may-care squad of hard-partying teens, MadS begins with a party-drug run, in which rich and reckless 18-year-old Romain (Milton Riche) collides with a stranger covered in blood. While he tries to brush it off for his night out, he's carrying more than trauma with him as he connects with his girlfriend Anais (Laurie Pavy) and her chic bestie Julia (Lucille Guillaume). Only horror will follow.
As I cheered in my review, "MadS binds us to these characters, allowing us to experience the claustrophobic frenzy and fear at their sides. No cutaways will offer an escape to another location or from the tension. Doggedly, we follow them as they run, bike, and clamor for salvation. We watch helpless as they transform from frivolous to ferocious, their teeth gone from points of pride to pointed weapons. And we share in their horror as the world around them goes from glowing and full of thrills to wretchedly caked in gore and rife with terror." — Kristy Puchko, Entertainment Editor
How to watch: MadS is now streaming on Shudder.
13. In a Violent NatureA slasher movie shot almost entirely from the perspective of the killer (Johnny, played by Ry Barrett), I described In a Violent Nature in my Mashable review as "a fun squirm-fest with visuals to delight and appall." Writer/director Chris Nash's movie is a beautifully filmed play on the classic high-school-teens-stalked-by-masked-killer-in-the-woods subgenre that uses its murder-y POV to its advantage.
"For the bulk of the movie, the camera hovers somewhere behind Johnny's broad shoulders as he makes his slow, unrelenting way through the forest towards his next victim. There's an inevitability to Johnny's nonstop trudging that heightens the tension in a way you don't really expect," I wrote. "The device could get repetitive, but crucially Nash knows when enough's enough — at several key moments in the film, including the campfire origin story that introduces us to the core characters, he switches the perspective up." — S.H.
How to watch: In a Violent Nature is available to rent or purchase on Prime Video, Apple TV+, Fandango at Home, and Microsoft.
12. Sleep"Someone's inside." Two words begin writer/director Jason Yu's feature debut Sleep, uttered by a slumbering Hyun-su (Lee Sun-kyun) sitting at the end of his bed. This terrifies his wife Soo-jin (Jung Yu-mi) and is the beginning of a long line of erratic, disturbing behaviour. Is it a sleep disorder or something more sinister? A subtle horror about the anxieties of marriage and new parenthood, Sleep deprives its protagonists of vital rest, instead sending them into a waking nightmare of somnambulism and threat — mainly to the couple's extremely cute Pomeranian, Pepper, but also, you know, the baby.
Sleep doesn't reinvent the wheel as a slow-burn, possibly supernatural horror, instead leaning on well-worn markers of the genre — the increasingly shocking events, the enlisting of a medium, the race to discover the truth. However, Lee and Jung give intense performances that make the film feel fresh, while cinematographer Tae-soo Kim and editor Meeyeon Han find unique ways to capture the inside of a small apartment for maximum tension. Both Soo-jin and Hyun-su fear what the other is capable of, with the film pivoting from one parent's unconscious fears to the other's over the course of a sharp 90 minutes. — Shannon Connellan, UK Editor
How to watch: Sleep is available to rent or purchase on Prime Video.
11. The Platform 2Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia's sequel takes us back to the nightmarish world of the original: A vertical prison with a table of food that travels slowly from the top to the bottom, with the prisoners at the top eating well — and the ones at the bottom starving to death.
"The original's nightmarishly simple concept was so compelling I wanted to see more from that world, but I also worried about what a sequel could say or show that the first movie hadn't," I wrote in my Mashable review. "I'm happy to report my fears weren't necessary. The Platform 2 is a powerful continuation of the bad dream that began with Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia's 2019 movie, building upon its brutalist universe while changing the rules just enough to send a new message."
Oh, and if you get to the end and you're scratching your head a bit, we have an explainer here.* — S.H.
How to watch: The Platform 2 is now streaming on Netflix.
10. ArcadianNicolas Cage takes on a monster-packed apocalypse alongside his teenage sons in this remote survival thriller from Ben Brewer that's as much about family drama as it is about nighttime critters.
"It's the monsters that bring the big, delicious, funky thrills of Arcadian, sparking screams and gasps and cheers. But it's Cage and his on-screen kids who give the movie stakes and the emotional center that is required for a great monster movie, be it Jaws or Alien," wrote Mashable's Kristy Puchko in her review. "Simply put, Arcadian is a rollicking thrill ride, fueled by creature-feature thrills. But what makes this good movie pretty damn great is the human story at its heart, which is compelling on its own." — S.H.
How to watch: Arcadian is now streaming on Shudder.
9. Smile 2After the success of Parker Finn's Smile, expectations for the sequel were high — and you'd better believe that thing delivered. Following on from the events of the first movie, Smile 2 takes its cursed premise into the world of fame, following pop star Skye Riley (Naomi Scott) on a world tour-turned-nightmare.
"To match his superstar heroine, Finn goes all in on creating an unpredictable narrative that's full of jump scares, creepy imagery, and spine-tingling sound effects," wrote Monica Castillo in her Mashable review. "There are even more violent injuries, body horror, and bloody deaths to make an audience recoil, and plenty of upsetting details, from Skye's compulsive hair-pulling habit (aka trichotillomania) to a group of smiling backup dancers chasing Skye through her apartment in choreographed formation. These scares can feel delightfully over the top, almost like a carnival ride, but they're as creative and horrific as the best parts of the Final Destination series." — S.H.
How to watch: Smile 2 is now streaming on Paramount+.
8. NosferatuRobert Eggers sinks his teeth into F.W. Murnau's 1922 horror classic Nosferatu, delivering a reimagining that takes the original's psychosexual subtext to new heights. Thomas and Ellen Hutter's (Nicholas Hoult and Lily-Rose Depp) life as newlyweds gets off to a rocky start when Thomas must travel to Transylvania for business, but it only gets worse from there when it turns out his client, Count Orlok (Bill Skarsgård), is an undead vampire with an obsessive connection to Ellen. What follows is a seductive tale of creeping darkness (rendered literal by cinematographer Jarin Blaschke's impeccable work) and repression come to light. Boasting exquisite craftsmanship and impeccable performances — look no further than Orlok's decaying body or Depp's exceptionally committed take on Ellen's possession — Nosferatu has all the makings of a gothic horror classic. — B.E.
How to watch: Nosferatu premieres in theatres Dec. 25.
7. CuckooTilman Singer's horror about a teenager being stalked by a stranger in the mountains was described by Siddhant Adlakha as "a fun midnight genre romp that works despite its goofiest elements" in his Mashable review.
"A mountainous horror film reminiscent of The Shining — albeit with far more overt body horror — it follows the travails of a family of four as they take up residence near a fancy lodge in an isolated corner of the German Alps," he wrote. "When strange sounds emanating from nearby forests begin to have bizarre bodily effects on some of the guests, moody 17-year-old Gretchen (Hunter Schafer of Euphoria) ends up stumbling upon an ongoing investigation into something both silly and sinister. With its tightly wound atmosphere and an impeccable ensemble that throws everything at the wall, Cuckoo emerges as a largely unique work despite its many familiar elements, thanks in part to its increasingly twisted implications surrounding gender and biology. It's incredibly strange and deviously fun." — S.H.
How to watch: Cuckoo premieres on Hulu Dec. 17.
6. It's What's InsideOne of the most mind-bending movies of 2024 begins with a slasher setup: Years after a dramatic falling-out, a gaggle of college friends reunite on the eve of one of their crew's wedding to reconnect and party hard. But rather than a masked killer in their midst, the mayhem device in this clever thriller from writer/director Greg Jardin is a party game that offers players the power to swap bodies. Dare to give it a go?
Slipping into the skin of lovers, frenemies, and rivals, these twentysomethings flirt, fight, and deceive until a deadly turn raises the stakes. And every step of this movie is gleefully twisted. In his Mashable review, Siddhant Adlakha raved, "Wielding devilishly enjoyable visual language, it provides winking hints of catharsis that make even its most audacious, galaxy-brained genre swerves feel like a couple's therapy session atop the world's tallest, fastest roller coaster. It's a frenetic and fascinating film that can't be missed."* — K.P.
How to watch: It's What's Inside is now streaming on Netflix.
5. HereticHeretic is a thrilling foray into talkative horror from writer-directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods (A Quiet Place, 65). Hugh Grant stars as Mr. Reed, a man who's trapped two young Mormon missionaries (Yellowjackets' Sophie Thatcher and The Fabelmans' Chloe East) in his tricked-out house of horrors. He claims that all he wants is a spirited debate about theology, but his methods — like the aforementioned trapping of women — leave much to be desired. Heretic's religious talking points can be a tad surface level, but Grant still sells the hell out them with a performance that takes the charm of any of his famed rom-com roles and flips it on its head. We may never watch Notting Hill the same way again. — B.E.
How to watch: Heretic is available to rent or purchase on Prime Video and Apple TV+.
4. I Saw the TV GlowUrban legend intersects with childhood memory in Jane Schoenbrun's haunting and mysterious I Saw the TV Glow, an unconventional story about two kids becoming obsessed with a strange TV show that may not be all it seems.
"It's an attempt to place years of confusing, festering emotions surrounding unbelonging into something that has shape or form — something that makes sense — but emerges as a desperate, primal scream, exploding with color and shadow," wrote Siddhant Adlakha in his review for Mashable. "The film is the disturbing sum of its lingering sensations that burrow their way beneath your skin, refusing to leave even after you've left the theater, or once you've cried yourself to sleep. But at the same time, its totality — the sheer fact of its existence, as an unbridled, uninhibited expression of the self — is exuberant and overwhelming." — S.H.
How to watch: I Saw the TV Glow is now streaming on Max.
3. Late Night with the DevilIf you like your horror lean and mean, you must see this '70s-set indie from writers/directors Cameron Cairnes and Colin Cairnes (aka the Cairnes Brothers).
David Dastmalchian, a character actor who's unnerved us in The Boogeyman and Prisoners, headlines here as Jack Delroy, a talk show host who is so determined to best Johnny Carson's ratings that he invites an allegedly possessed girl to be a guest on his Halloween special. Part showbiz satire, part found-footage horror, Late Night with the Devil uses a low-fi look and keenly creepy effects to create a throwback tale of terror that is rank with fresh blood. While the film's been criticized for its use of AI, its scares are so satisfying that it earned praise from none other than the master of horror himself, Stephen King. So, take a cue from our review: "Tune in and hang on. Dastmalchian and his demon are coming for you."* —K.P.
How to watch: Late Night with the Devil is now streaming on AMC+, and available for rent or purchase on Prime Video.
2. The SubstanceThe Substance is one of the most critically heralded horror films of the year and also one of the most polarizing among our team. As the ferocious follow-up to her grisly and glorious directorial debut Revenge, French filmmaker Coralie Fargeat pulled no punches, delivering a thriller that's a gut-churning knockout.
Demi Moore stars as Elisabeth Sparkle, an actress whose star is fading as she ages, and heartless Hollywood execs (exemplified by a shellfish-chomping Dennis Quaid) hunger for young beauties and fresh blood. So when a miracle drug allows her to split her life with a perky younger model of herself (Drive-Away Dolls' Margaret Qualley), she leaps at the chance. But the brutal cost it takes is ugly.
A ghastly satire about the misogynistic beauty standards applied to women, The Substance shocked and awed critics and audiences alike with its giddily gruesome imagery. In his review for Mashable, Siddhant Adlakha argued "its style has no real substance." Others on our team were apoplectic over the movie's most twisted turns. But the majority of Mashable's team reveled in Fargeat's brutal honesty, which explored how vanity and insecurity can warp a person, inside and out. Speaking for those of us who loved The Substance, there's something undeniably exhilarating about a movie that's as proudly pink as Barbie but as unhinged as the gnarliest midnight movie.* — K.P.
How to watch: The Substance is now streaming on MUBI.
1. OddityIn a year rich with sensational horror offerings, Oddity was among our very favorite. A follow-up to Irish filmmaker Damian McCarthy's deeply creepy Caveat, Oddity seamlessly blends a barrage of spooky subgenres with Irish lore to create something sickening, scary, strange, and timeless.
As I recounted in my review of the movie's SXSW premiere, this supernatural thriller begins with a seeming slasher setup. A woman home alone hears an unwelcome knock at the door, and then is offered an impossible decision that will determine life or death. Keeping his audience on their toes, McCarthy then leaps to a year later, introducing us to a visually impaired psychic and her oddity shop, full of cursed curiosities. From there, ghosts, witchcraft, and psychological thriller elements come into play, mostly within a remote home that looks just wrong from every angle. And that's before the creepy Wooden Man arrives as a grim gift. In this way, Oddity plays like an anthology, unfurling horrific surprises, intense scares, and strange stories, but all within one sophisticated, unnerving saga. The result is a movie that's not just a must-see for horror fans, it's a must-see over and over again to catch every cryptic detail.* — K.P.
How to watch: Oddity is now streaming on Shudder.

It was tough, but we found the 25 best movies on Max
Max has become a streaming service we can't live without.
The library boasts thousands of hours of endless movie magic, from hallowed Hollywood favorites in the Turner Classic Movies collection to nerdy essentials like The Lord of the Rings, not to mention arthouse favorites like Chantal Akerman, Wong Kar-wai, Robert Altman, and Akira Kurosawa... and Barbie.
Picking the best (and distinguishing them from our personal favorites) was no easy task, but we somehow managed.
In no particular order, here are the best movies on Max.
1. Parasite Credit: Curzon Artificial Eye / Kobal / ShutterstockFour years have passed, and it's still wild that a film like Parasite took home the Best Picture trophy at the Oscars back in 2020. Not only was Bong Joon-ho's black comedy thriller the very first non-English language film to grab Hollywood's highest honor, but it was also by far the most audacious film to do so. The South Korean filmmaker's anti-capitalist parable follows the Kims, a poor family just barely getting by, who decide to infiltrate the lives of the wealthy Park family, who reside in a luxurious modern home. First Ki-woo (Choi Woo-shik) pretends to be a student to get a job tutoring the Parks' daughter. Then he gets his sister Ki-jung, aka "Jessica" (cue air quotes) a job as their son’s art therapist. Eventually, the entire Kim family is on the Parks' payroll, without the Parks realizing they're related.
But Parasite is so much more than a class-conscious story about a scheming family. Bong has long been a master of genre mash-up filmmaking, and with Parasite, he further blends tingling suspense with biting humor, startling violence, and unforgettable set pieces. Parasite is one of those rare films that was fully deserving of the massive hype around it, and still is.
How to watch: Parasite is now streaming on Max.
2. Love Lies BleedingLove Lies Bleeding is the latest addition to the "Be Gay, Do Crime" genre, and we're so lucky to have it. The queer thriller from Saint Maud filmmaker Rose Glass is what you'd get if the Wachowskis' Bound had an affair with the Coen brothers' Blood Simple — a taut crime film with pops of gory violence, a messy criminal scheme, plenty of sex appeal, and a deliciously synth-heavy score.
SEE ALSO: 'Love Lies Bleeding' Interview: Kristen Stewart on the female gaze vs. the male gaze.Set in New Mexico in the late '80s, Kristen Stewart plays Lou, a quiet gym manager whose whole world changes when a jaw-dropping bodybuilder named Jackie (Katy O'Brian) walks into her gym one night. Jackie is just passing through town on the way to a body-building competition, but once these two fall for each other Jackie decides to stick around. Soon, though, Jackie's muscles and Lou's unchecked temper get the couple wrapped up in some messy family business.
How to watch: Love Lies Bleeding is streaming on Max.
3. Barbie Credit: Warner Bros / Moviestore / ShutterstockSweet, smart, and surprisingly subversive for a billion-dollar blockbuster, Barbie is a blast. Movies about toys are not supposed to be this thoughtful or this good, but apparently no one told that to director Greta Gerwig, who wrote Barbie with her long-term partner, Noah Baumbach. The comedy stars Margot Robbie as Barbie, the stereotypical beautiful blonde in a Barbieland populated by every imaginable kind of Barbie, a handful of Kens (led by a delightful Ryan Gosling), and one lone Allan (Michael Cera). She starts having very un-Barbie-like thoughts about, like, death, so she journeys to the real world, where she discovers things are not as idyllic as they were back in female-led Barbieland.
In addition to being 2023's top-grossing film, Barbie earned eight Oscar nods and one win. However, many believed it didn't get the nominations it deserved for either Robbie as lead actress or Gerwig as director, who perhaps made their hard work look effortless. Some viewers also complained that it was too revolutionary in its feminism, while others found it too moderate, echoing the monologue from America Ferrara's character that undoubtedly got the actress an Oscar nomination. Yet despite its small number of detractors, Barbie remains a crowd-pleasing winner, brimming with intelligence, optimism, and so much pink paint. — Kimber Myers, Freelance Contributor
How to watch: Barbie is now streaming on Max.
4. In the Mood for LoveIn the Mood for Love is a favorite among many cinephiles (including this one!) for a reason — it's one of the most sublime examples of how to tell an emotional story through the language of cinema. But you don't need to be a film scholar or know anything at all about filmmaking or foreign movies to enjoy this romance, which relies on the power of showing over telling.
It's a simple story about two neighbors who soon discover a secret about their respective spouses. Set in 1960s Hong Kong, Tony Leung's Chow Mo-Wan and Maggie Cheung's Su Li-Zhen hardly speak more than a few words to each other, but through their encounters in the hallway of their apartment building and the staircase of a local noodle shop, something begins to blossom — a longing, a sadness, a desire to be seen. The incredible thing about In the Mood for Love is how filmmaker Wong Kar-wai captures these universal emotions and tells a relatable story about love and yearning through visuals, sound, and performances using minimal exposition. Bursting with a radiant red and golden color scheme, stunning '60s womens' fashion, and a soundtrack of multinational music, In the Mood for Love is more of an experience than a traditional romance, and one that grows more beautiful with each rewatch.
How to watch: In the Mood for Love is now streaming on Max.
5. I Saw the TV Glow Credit: A24I Saw the TV Glow is a movie that will resonate with anyone who's experienced a lifelong struggle of feeling like an outsider, or has struggled to come to terms with their identity. But Jane Schoenbrun's surrealist horror drama has also become an especially powerful film for trans audiences in particular with the gender allegory at its center.
It tells the story of two lonely teens, Owen (Justice Smith) and Maddy (Brigette Lundy-Paine), who bond over their obsession with a '90s late-night TV show called The Pink Opaque. While it's not explicitly about gender identity, I Saw the TV Glow hauntingly captures the feeling of growing up with a painful discordance between who you know you truly are and the life and body you've been born into, and how burying ourselves in fiction can feel like the only escape. With notes of surrealism reminiscent of David Lynch and Charlie Kaufman, I Saw the TV Glow is a film more interested in giving you an emotional experience than explaining things for you. It's a hard and incredibly heart-breaking watch, but well worth it.
How to watch: I Saw the TV Glow is streaming on Max.
6. Paris, TexasParis, Texas opens on a man named Travis (Harry Dean Stanton) wandering through the Texas desert wearing a red ball cap and an old dusty suit, carrying nothing but a jug of water. Travis doesn't speak much, but in time we learn bits and pieces of the happy life he once had with a young son and a wife who's gone missing, and of the future he's dreaming of. Wim Wenders' film is a difficult one to categorize, but probably best described as a road movie about dreamers and wanderers. We spend lots of time in cars and dingy motels with Travis and his brother, Walt (Dean Stockwell), as they drive from Texas back to Los Angeles, and later, as Travis searches for his wife. It's a slow, meditative film about loneliness and uncertainty, brimming with sun-soaked landscape shots and images lit by neon signs. Once you tune into its wavelength, Paris, Texas is a film that will smack you right in the heart.
How to watch: Paris, Texas is now streaming on Max.
7. Mad Max: Fury RoadIf a movie could feel like getting a shot of adrenaline injected straight into your eyeballs — again, and again, and again — then that movie would be Mad Max: Fury Road. George Miller's road warrior action epic is an absolutely bonkers ride from the very first scene to the last. After Tom Hardy's apocalypse survivor Max escapes from the white-haired and pasty-skinned baddie Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne), he teams up with Charlize Theron's brutal-as-hell Furiosa to outrun the evil warlord. Really, Fury Road is just one continual chase sequence filled with tricked-out apocalyptic cars and semi-trucks, flame-throwing and guitar-playing sickos, a crew of badass female survivors, and some of the most gorgeous desert battles you've ever seen. With its eye-popping production design, blazing orange desert look, roaring sound design, and unrelenting suspense, Mad Mad: Fury Road remains an action spectacle like no other.
How to watch: Mad Max: Fury Road is now streaming on Max.
8. The Devil Wears Prada Credit: Moviestore / ShutterstockNeed I waste time explaining why The Devil Wears Prada continues to be one of the most rewatchable and quotable comedies? Meryl Streep never misses a note as the scathing Anna Wintour-esque Miranda Priestly. Stanley Tucci is at his Tucci-est as a fashion magazine art director who comedically balances pity and concern for Anne Hathaway's Andy. Emily Blunt is delightfully unlikable as Miranda's vicious personal assistant. And, of course there's the joyous Hathaway, whose Andy we can't help but root for. The Devil Wears Prada has given us so much, from the perfect needle drop of Madonna's "Vogue" for Andy's makeover montage to gifting the internet with the Chanel boots meme. It's also the film that pops into your mind every time you pass a brick of Jarlsberg in the cheese aisle and think, "Good god, $8 worth is a lot of cheese for a sandwich."
How to watch: The Devil Wears Prada is now streaming on Max.
9. Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 BruxellesYou may have never heard of the 1975 Belgian-French film Jeanne Dielman until recently, when the magazine Sight and Sound named it the greatest film of all time. "But wait, don't film people consider Citizen Kane the best movie ever?" you may be thinking. For 40 years, that Orson Welles classic dominated the list, soon followed by Hitchcock's Vertigo. Not anymore. The boys got bumped down for Chantal Akerman's radically feminist, avant-garde marvel to reign, and deservingly so.
So what makes Jeanne Dielman so incredible? On paper it admittedly doesn't sound like much, but the act of watching it is almost hypnotic. Throughout the movie we slowly see a lonely widow and mother (Delphine Seyrig) meticulously do housework, like peel potatoes, grocery shop, and make the bed. Jeanne also earns money through sex work, hosting men at her home before her son returns from school. Throughout the monotony of it all, a palpable dread grows until Akerman's character study culminates in one of the most shocking endings of all time. If a film could somehow be tedious and enthralling at the same time, Jeanne Dielman is it.
How to watch: Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles is now streaming on Max.
10. Blood Simple Credit: © Circle Films / Courtesy Everett CollectionThe Coen brothers' very first film is a must-see for fans of the versatile filmmakers, or just anyone who loves Fargo. Blood Simple is a lean crime thriller that's oozing with style, taut with suspense, and features an early taste of the duo's signature dark humor. It has all the makings of a slick neo-noir with a simple story involving a secret affair, a murder plot, and a private eye.
SEE ALSO: Every single Coen brothers movie, ranked from 'Blood Simple' to 'Drive-Away Dolls'Frances McDormand, in her feature film debut, plays Abby, a Texas housewife who begins an affair with a bartender named Ray (John Getz). But Abby's husband, Marty (Dan Hedaya), is Ray's boss, and when he starts to suspect her of infidelity, he hires a private detective (an incredible M. Emmet Walsh) to snoop around and spy on the new couple. The neon and blood-drenched visuals paired with an eerie electronic score from beloved composer Carter Burwell and killer performances all around make Blood Simple one of the all-time best first films. Fun fact: This is also the film where McDormand met now-husband Joel Coen.

11. Gloria BellMovies about middle-aged women finding themselves and looking for true love later in life are, undeniably, some of the best kinds of movies. Gloria Bell is no exception.
The film from Chilean director Sebastián Lelio — a near-identical American remake to his 2013 film Gloria, which is also a must-see — stars Julianne Moore as a divorcée living in Los Angeles. With her two grown children starting families of their own, the free-spirited Gloria fights her loneliness by going out dancing and grooving alone to disco classics. Then she meets Arnold (John Turturro), a divorced father who she begins to date but has reservations about. Gloria Bell tells a simple story that's guaranteed to make you feel all the things and leave you with a teary-eyed smile.

12. 20th Century WomenSet in 1979, 20th Century Women is a coming-of-age film told through the eyes of a young teenage boy raised by women. 15-year-old Jamie (Lucas Jade Zumann) lives with his single mother, Dorothea (Annette Bening, playing the kinda cool mom you wish was your own), who runs a boarding house for women out of their old Santa Barbara home. Twentysomething photographer Abbie (Greta Gerwig) lives there, and 17-year-old Julie (Elle Fanning) slips in and out of Jamie's window to tell him about the boys she's hooked up with. Surrounded by these women, Jamie's introduced to books on feminism and conversations about birth control, cervical cancer, heartbreak, and menstruation. He goes to his first punk concert, jams out to The Strokes records, and gets drunk for the first time.
20th Century Woman isn't just any run-of-the-mill coming-of-age movie, though. Filmmaker Mike Mills constructs the film like a cinematic scrapbook, using voiceover montage sequences full of archival footage, found photos, and object portraits to tell each woman's story. It's a unique artistic approach that lends a stylish edge to a story bursting with sweetness.

13. ClimaxIf you ever wondered what it would be like to have a really bad acid trip with a group of professional dancers, then watch Climax. The vibes will be bad, but the dancing will be oh, so good.
This French horror film comes from the demented mind of Gaspar Noé, the guy behind Irreversible and Enter the Void, so you know right away that things are going to get really freaking bad and disturbing. It all begins at an afterparty inside an abandoned school where a French dance troupe is celebrating. They down glasses of sangria and jump onto the dance floor to let loose in a dance-off that is so dazzling to watch you might think you're actually high. But wait, someone spiked the sangria, and now everyone is high — and tripping on LSD! What follows is an unrelenting nightmare that will either be the most thrilling ride of your life, or the most terrible, or maybe both. Watch to find out.

14. The Player Credit: Spelling International / Kobal / ShutterstockThe Player opens with an eight-minute tracking shot across a Hollywood movie studio as executives and assistants panic over a Variety headline, hear a terrible pitch about a sequel, and chat about the decline in quality filmmaking. "The pictures these days are all cut, cut, cut," one character laments as he praises classic film tracking shots… during a literal tracking shot.
Robert Altman's 1992 film isn't just a meta film about Hollywood, it's one of the best, funniest, and smartest satires about the movie business. Tim Robbins plays the vice president of a major studio who's been getting threatening postcards from a scorned screenwriter he never called back. Paranoia builds as his life starts to mirror the plot of a classic crime thriller — there's a murder, a mysterious girl, and probing detectives — all while he greets celebs at elite restaurants at his day job. It's all hilarious and perfectly meta, poking fun at the state of Hollywood and modern blockbusters in commentary that remains relatable even today. Come for the sharp sardonic humor, stay for the 65 cameos of celebrities playing themselves, which are some of the film's best punchlines.

15. BrooklynIf you're a sucker for tender period romances that lead to wholesome cries, Brooklyn is the film. Saoirse Ronan is as Irish as ever as Eilis Lace, a young girl from a small town in southeast Ireland. It's the early 1950s, and after struggling to find stable work at home, Eilis decides to emigrate to New York City. She gets a job at a department store and moves into a Brooklyn boarding house, but she can't help missing home and feeling so alone in her new world. Then she meets Tony (Emory Cohen), a charming Italian guy, and a sweet love story takes hold. But back home, there's another great guy (Domhnall Gleeson) who may stir things up a bit. While on first glance, Brooklyn could easily be mistaken as any mid-rate period drama, it's elevated by its trio of strong performances (most notably Ronan, who is nothing short of wonderful in a role that earned her a second Oscar nom), an excellent screenplay by author Nick Hornby (About a Boy), and its stunning cinematography that glows with warmth.

16. A Woman Under the InfluenceIn A Woman Under the Influence, Gena Rowlands gives what many have rightfully deemed one of the greatest performances in film. She plays Mabel Longhetti, a mother and housewife who's known to exhibit some rather erratic behavior. Mabel is often giddy and bursting with childish excitement one moment, then erupts into angry outbursts or desperately clings to affection the next. Perhaps she struggles with bipolar or borderline personality disorder. Or maybe her troubled marriage to Nick (Peter Falk) and the housewife box she's been confined to are ushering her into a full-on nervous breakdown. That's essentially what the John Cassavetes film is — a harrowing portrait of a woman, and a marriage, falling apart at the seams.
A Woman Under the Influence is a prime example of what makes Cassavetes' filmmaking so riveting, and it's a great introduction for anyone interested in exploring the filmmaker who's known for laying the foundation for American independent cinema. But still, this is Rowlands' film. She captivates every moment she's on screen with a performance that feels so real, off-the-cuff, and lived in that you may mistake it for improvisation. It isn't, and it proves why Rowlands was one of the best of her generation.

17. All the Beauty and the Bloodshed Credit: HBOThe worlds of art and activism collide in this Oscar–nominated documentary from Laura Poitras (Citizenfour). All the Beauty and the Bloodshed is about the life and work of Nan Goldin, the acclaimed photographer most known for her raw, intimate photos of gay, trans, and underground artist communities in 1980s New York City during the HIV/AIDS crisis. Told with the help of her photographs, the documentary weaves Goldin's personal story as a young artist with her present-day activism around the opioid epidemic.
The doc shows that in recent years Goldin has been involved in fighting against the Sacklers, the billionaire pharma family behind Oxycontin who've played a major role in opioid overdoses. The Sacklers are also major donors in the art world, and All the Beauty and the Bloodshed follows Goldin and other activists as they stage protests everywhere from The Met to the Louvre. It's a captivating story whether you're familiar with Goldin's work or not.

18. The Dark KnightIt's daunting to pick just one Batman movie from the literal dozens available on Max, but in the end the top spot could only go to 2008's The Dark Knight, written and directed by Christopher Nolan (Mask of the Phantasm, we will avenge you — someday).
The Dark Knight is more than the obvious peak of Nolan's Batman trilogy and the final, mesmerizing performance that won Heath Ledger an Oscar. Over a decade later, the film's exploration of nuance within the poles of good and evil remains as prescient as ever. We're drawn to the chaos and fury of Ledger's Joker, yes, but we are just as compelled by Bruce's struggle (Christian Bale) and Harvey's (Aaron Eckhart) fall from grace. You don't get a line like "You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain" without seriously contemplating its meaning. — Proma Khosla, Entertainment Reporter

19. Singin' in the RainEasily one of the greatest movie musicals ever made, Singin' in the Rain tells the story of Hollywood's shift from silent films to talking pictures. Caught in this transition is leading man Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly), whose leading lady Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen) has the most grating voice imaginable. With the help of his best friend Cosmo Brown (Donald O'Connor) and aspiring actor Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds), he plans to make a movie musical. What follows are some of the best musical numbers in history, with show-stopping choreography accompanying catchy tunes. The title number is an absolute joy, as are "Good Morning" and the comedic masterpiece "Make 'Em Laugh." But it's the 13-minute "Broadway Melody" sequence in all its Technicolor glory that solidifies Singin' in the Rain as one of the all-time greats. — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter

20. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Credit: Pierre Vinet / New Line / Saul Zaentz / Wing Nut / Kobal / ShutterstockPeter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy remains the gold standard for fantasy adaptations: It's epic in scope and full of memorable characters and performances. Most impressively, the trilogy is consistently great. Choosing the best movie from the three is tricky, but I've got to give the edge to The Two Towers. The battle of Helm's Deep is still the best fantasy battle put to film, and the introduction of Rohan, the Ents, and Gollum (Andy Serkis) deepens the already well-established world of Middle Earth. Gollum in particular elevates the movie to a whole new level, with Serkis and the visual effects team nailing one of the most iconic characters of the books. Max has the entire trilogy in its library, as well as the extended editions if you want even more Middle Earth goodness. — B.E.

21. Police StoryThere's nothing like watching Jackie Chan in action, and Police Story features some of the all-time greatest stunts from the martial arts icon. The first film in the still-ongoing franchise stars Chan as Kevin, a Hong Kong police sergeant trying to take down a criminal gang and protect the key witness of the case (Brigitte Lin). Needing to protect a random woman while fighting bad guys poses some problems for Kevin's personal life when his girlfriend (a young Maggie Cheung) gets the wrong idea and becomes jealous.
But the plot matters less than the action and fight choreography in Police Story. From the jaw-dropping opening sequence of cars plunging through a hillside village to one of Chan's most iconic scenes hanging off a speeding bus — plus plenty of parkour-infused fight and chase scenes — Police Story will never leave you bored.

22. Rashomon Credit: Daiei / Kobal / ShutterstockAkira Kurosawa is rightly considered one of Japan's greatest filmmakers, and Rashomon is his best-known film in the United States. When it premiered in 1950, its unique storytelling device in which the same events are told from the perspective of four different witnesses (one of whom is actually dead) was such a revelation in filmic structure that the movie became eponymous with the concept — hence, the Rashomon Effect. Through this effect, the relatively simple tale of a priest, a bandit, a samurai, a woodcutter, and a woman becomes a complex analysis of truth and perspective that earns its place as a keystone of 20th century filmmaking. — Alexis Nedd, Senior Entertainment Reporter

23. Grey Gardens Credit: Archive photos / Getty ImagesIn their famed 1976 film Grey Gardens, brothers and documentary team Albert and David Maysles pay a visit to a dilapidated mansion in the Hamptons. There, they profile the intriguing and tragic lives of a reclusive mother and daughter, both named Edith Beale, in a strange and winding character study unlike any other.
Relatives of First Lady Jackie Kennedy, the life stories of "Little Edie" and "Big Edie" are sensationalized in the documentary, and many argue that the film takes an inherently exploitative view of its subjects and their apparent mental health conditions. But as far as fascinating footage goes, Grey Gardens is a must-watch — capturing a unique family at the heart of a broader dialogue about the decline of political royalty and '60s-era Americana. — Alison Foreman, Entertainment Reporter

24. Spirited AwayIf you want to get into the beautiful, captivating films of Studio Ghibli, the vast majority of which are on Max, Spirited Away is a great place to start. It's the story of Chihiro, a young girl trapped in a spirit world who must work to free her parents from a witch's curse — and it's also a perfect movie. Everything about it, from the visuals to the characters to the score, grabs you tightly and immerses you in director Hayao Miyazaki's imaginative world of spirit bathhouses, soot sprites, dragons, and more. There's beauty in Spirited Away's most elaborate sequences, but also in its quiet moments too, like a train ride or a meal shared between friends. These are the moments when you'll find yourself crying without fully knowing why. All you'll know for sure is that Spirited Away is amazing, and you never want it to end. — B.E.

25. Dune: Part 2 Credit: Courtesy Warner Bros. PicturesWith 2021's Dune, director Denis Villeneuve proved he could do justice to Frank Herbert's sci-fi masterwork. Three years later, he topped himself with Dune: Part Two, which will go down in history as one of the greatest sci-fi films and sequels ever made.
Dune: Part Two continues the story of Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), who finds himself among the planet Arrakis's indigenous Fremen. There he becomes entangled in the impossible position of hoping to avenge the Harkonnens' attack on his house, while also trying to avoid a future in which he unleashes holy war upon the universe. As Dune: Part Two moves closer and closer to that violent inevitability, Villeneuve and co-writer Jon Spaihts don't shy away from the darkness of Paul's story. They build his relationship with Chani (an extraordinary Zendaya) into an immaculate tragedy. More sandworms and Austin Butler's gleefully evil Feyd-Rautha only add to Dune: Part Two's excellence — now bring on Dune Messiah! — B.E.

TikToks injunction against U.S. ban has been denied
TikTok's emergency injunction against its U.S. ban has been denied. This means its deadline to leave the country still stands firm at Jan. 19, with the company now hoping a Supreme Court appeal will save it.
In an order filed on Friday, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals found that granting a temporary injunction to pause TikTok's U.S. ban was "unwarranted." It considered that doing so would not merely delay the execution of a legal ruling, but entirely suspend a law which was deliberately enacted by Congress and upheld as constitutional by the court.
SEE ALSO: When will TikTok be banned in the U.S.? And what can stop it from happening?"The petitioners have not identified any case in which a court, after rejecting a constitutional challenge to an Act of Congress, has enjoined the Act from going into effect while review is sought in the Supreme Court," the order stated.
The court further noted that TikTok's injunction request relied upon its claim that the ban violates the First Amendment right to free speech. In its petition last Monday, TikTok argued that the Supreme Court would be likely to review the ban, as "[free] speech restrictions have survived strict scrutiny only in rare and narrow circumstances."
Unfortunately, the Court of Appeals' judgement had already rejected TikTok's argument, Friday's order reiterating that it "unanimously concluded the Act satisfies the requirements of the First Amendment under heightened scrutiny."
Laws which restrict free speech are subject to strict scrutiny, which requires they be narrowly tailored to advance a compelling governmental interest. They must also be the least restrictive method to achieve the government's goal.
"[T]he Government offers two national security justifications for the Act: to counter (1) the [People's Republic of China]’s efforts to collect data of and about persons in the United States, and (2) the risk of the PRC covertly manipulating content on TikTok," the Court of Appeals wrote in its judgement on Dec. 6.
"[TikTok and parent company ByteDance] suggest an array of options none of which comes close to serving either, much less both, the Government’s goals as effectively as does divestiture. Each consequently fails to qualify as a less restrictive alternative for purposes of the First Amendment."
TikTok has consistently denied allegations of links to the Chinese government. The company has also publicly invested $1.5 billion to quarantine U.S. users' data in the U.S. with American company Oracle, an initiative dubbed Project Texas. Even so, U.S. lawmakers remain unconvinced.
Though Friday's decision is an undeniable setback for TikTok, the company has reiterated its intention to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. If the Supreme Court does not rule in TikTok's favour, the only way Americans will retain access to TikTok is if ByteDance sells off its U.S. operations.
"As we have previously stated, we plan on taking this case to the Supreme Court, which has an established historical record of protecting Americans' right to free speech," said TikTok in a statement on X. "The voices of over 170 million Americans here in the US and around the world will be silenced on January 19th, 2025 unless the TikTok ban is halted."
