2017 Movies • Movies Released in 2017 List - Thanks for the heads up! It lets itself down a little by pointing out troupes eg below-par cgi only to later do the exact same thing, which is perhaps the point but it feels like it needed an extra layer of subversion toward the end.
I like most horror movies. Hell, I like most movies that are only tangentially. I'm looking at you, Resident Evil and Underworld sequels. But there's a big difference between a goofy 92-minute distraction and a legitimately impressive horror film. I don't think I'll ever revisit Underworld 5 again -- or even discuss it all that much -- but when it comes to the finest genre films, it's never too early to start shining a light on the really good stuff. Cult of Chucky Released: October 3 Cast: Fiona Dourif, Alex Vincent, Brad Dourif Director: Don Mancini Seed of Chucky Why it's great: Everyone's favorite homicidal toy make a surprisingly decent comeback a few years ago with Curse of Chucky, and while this sixth sequel to the 1980s classic Child's Play struggles a bit in the back half, it's still a sadistic enough romp. This time around Chucky is swinging sharp objects around a hospital for the emotionally challenged -- and yes things do get ugly. Where to watch it: Stream on Netflix; rent on iTunes, Amazon, and YouTube 29. House on Willow Street Released: March 24 Cast: Sharni Vinson, Carlyn Burchell, Steven John Ward Director: Alastair Orr Indigenous Why it's great: A few moments in this tale of a kidnapping gone horribly -- and I do mean horribly -- awry are truly inspired horror. As usual Sharni Vinson You're Next makes for a highly capable horror anti-hero, and it's her performance, plus a handful of clever twists, that keep this crime-thriller-turned-carnage-fest, about a group of ill-fated criminals bickering over what to do with the plainly and perhaps supernaturally evil young woman they've abducted, cooking. Where to watch it: Stream on Netflix; Rent on Amazon, iTunes, and Vudu 28. Lovecraft, and John Carpenter into a blender, then splattered the results all over the hallways of a creepy, deserted hospital. Gillespie and Kostanski know their way around satirical genre material check out Manborg, Father's Day, and The Editor but this flick earns unexpected points for mostly eschewing the humor in favor of suspense, tension, dread, carnage, monsters, tentacles, and more carnage.

Where to watch it: Coming to VOD on October 24 26. A Cure for Wellness Released: February 17 Cast: Dane DeHaan, Jason Isaacs, Mia Goth, Celia Imrie Director: Gore Verbinski The Ring Why it's great: Detractors of A Cure for Wellness, a pulpy horror-mystery about a water-based therapy center with diabolical intentions, may point to the overly familiar plot which feels a whole lot like Shutter Island or the almost mercilessly overlong middle. But there's little denying that there's a lot of grim, juicy, creepy goodness to be found in this tale of an isolated sanitarium, a snotty go-getter, and a disgusting old secret. The remarkable look, offbeat style, eerie tone, and gorgeous cinematography are still powerfully impressive. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Amazon, Vudu, and YouTube 25. Better Watch Out Released: October 6 Cast: Olivia De Jonge, Virginia Madsen, Patrick Warburton Director: Chris Peckover Undocumented Why it's great: A kid with a crush and his no-nonsense babysitter do battle with a gang of home invaders -- only there are more than a few dark surprises to be found in this energetic Christmas-themed horror tale with a sense of humor. To say much more would spoil some nice surprises, but suffice to say that a strong cast, a firm grasp of energetic mayhem, and a twisted sense of humor make this one stand out amongst countless other yuletide terror tales. Where to watch it: Rent on Amazon, iTunes, and Vudu 24. Sweet Virginia Released: November 17 Cast: Christopher Abbott, Jon Bernthal, Imogen Poots, Rosemarie Dewitt Director: Jamie M. Dagg River Why it's great: This rough and unpredictable thriller centers on a former rodeo star who runs a motel, unknowingly befriends a ruthless murderer, and gets embroiled in all sorts of unpleasant neo-noir nastiness. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Vudu, Amazon 23. Alien: Covenant Released: May 19 Cast: Michael Fassbender, Katherine Waterston, Danny McBride Director: Ridley Scott Alien Why it's great: It's a bit more horror-oriented , and that's really all it takes to keep me happy. Yes, the characters do stupid things and, yes, it's basically the same old aliens-chase-humans concept we've all seen a dozen times by now, but Alien: Covenant is also beautifully shot, legitimately compelling, and laden with all sorts of crazy alien attacks. It's highly unlikely that this franchise will ever again approach the awesomeness of Alien and Aliens, but this one does make for a capably entertaining sci-fi-horror mash-up. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Amazon, Vudu, and YouTube 22. It Comes at Night Released: June 9 Cast: Joel Edgerton, Carmen Ejogo, Kelvin Harrison Jr. Director: Trey Edward Shults Krisha Why it's great: While this slow-burn horror story , those who approach the movie's viral ickiness with an open mind will walk away somewhat impressed. Give it a shot on one night when you're feeling especially upbeat. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Amazon, Vudu, and YouTube 21. Many of these are tiresome at best. Happy Hunting is a darkly pleasant exception to the rule. Fast-paced, well-cast, and more than a little clever than many of its ilk, this is one of those little buried genre treasures you hope to stumble across late at night. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Amazon, VUDU, and YouTube 20. Happy Death Day Released: October 13 Cast: Jessica Rothe, Israel Broussard, Ruby Modine Director: Christopher Landon Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse Why it's great: Sure, it's basically just Groundhog Day combined with a slasher movie, but the twist makes for a lot of clever fun. The movie focuses on a college girl who is forced to suffer through her final day alive -- over and over -- until she can figure out what the hell is going on. Where to watch it: In theaters 19. The movie combines both genres into one tasty combo plate that's unexpected at every turn. A weird one, but it's also really quite good. Where to watch it: Stream on Amazon Prime 18. The Blackcoat's Daughter Released: March 31 Cast: Emma Roberts, Kiernan Shipka, Lucy Boynton Director: Oz Perkins I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House Why it's great: Two young women are left behind at school during break... Both figuratively and literally. This cool, stylish thriller goes off in some strange directions and even offers a seemingly unrelated subplot about a mysterious hitchhiker but it all pays off in the end, thanks in large part to the three leads and Mr. Perkins' artful approach to what could have been just another occult-based gore-fest. Where to watch it: Streaming on Amazon Prime 17. Life Released: March 24 Cast: Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Reynolds, Rebecca Ferguson, Hiroyuki Sanada Director: Daniel Espinosa Safe House Why it's great: It's always fun to watch people get shot deep into outer space only to come up against a horrific and unstoppable force. Combine that with a nice pace, a cool score, and a nifty gut-punch of an ending, and you're looking at a flick that is bound to become a cult favorite like its distant cousin, Event Horizon. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Amazon, and YouTube 16. Creep 2 Released: October 24 Cast: Mark Duplass, Desiree Akhavan Director: Patrick Brice The Overnight Why it's great: The first Creep proved to be a quietly compelling and calmly creepy story about a man who unwittingly befriends a real... Unfortunately for online documentary filmmaker Sarah Akhavan , the creep is back, as she'll soon find out, in various odd and unsettling ways. But what happens when the creep's potential victim refuses to be, well, creeped out? Akhavan seems to be a perfect foil for Mark Duplass' quietly unhinged lunatic, and together they cook up an oddly satisfying sequel to a satisfyingly odd predecessor. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes 15. Split Released: January 20 Cast: James McAvoy, Anya Taylor-Joy, Haley Lu Richardson, Betty Buckley Director: M. Leave it to the suddenly resurgent M. Night Shyamalan to find some new angles on a story that's been told about 50 awful times since Hostel and Saw hit the scene. Throw in some well-earned scares and a handful of weird twists you won't see coming, and you're looking at Shyamalan's best movie in years. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Amazon, YouTube, and VOD 14. Thelma Released: November 10 Cast: Eili Harboe, Kaya Wilkins, Henrik Rafaelson Director: Joachim Trier Louder Than Bombs Why it's great: A sheltered young woman tries to acclimate to life away at school, but slowly comes to realize that she holds a mysterious -- and very dangerous -- power within herself. Poor, unassuming Thelma suffers from seizures, visions, and creepy nightmares, to say nothing of her schoolwork, homesickness, and the stress that comes with a new romantic partner. Where to watch it: In theaters. Jane plays a miserable farmer who murders his wife in order to steal her land, but of course this horrible deed kick-starts a domino effect that destroys the man's life in very unexpected ways. Where to watch it: Stream on Netflix 12. Tragedy Girls Released: October 20 Cast: Brianna Hildebrand, Alexandria Shipp, Josh Hutcherson Director: Tyler McIntyre Patchwork Why it's great: A pair of aspiring psychopaths do all they can to promote their own distinct brand of bloody mayhem -- while still trying to deal with the normal anxieties of everyday high school life. Where to watch it: In limited theaters 11. This one gets the the bottom spot as a placeholder, simply for the sheer audacity of the movie, and I reserve the right to bump this up later after a second visit with the flick. Where to watch it: In theaters 10. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Amazon, and YouTube 9. Loosely based on actual events, this stark Australian import may sound wildly familiar to those who appreciate crime fiction, but this film manages to hook you early and suck you in like quicksand, thanks in large part to some great actors, but also because of Mr. Young's gradual, persistent escalation of tension. Where to watch it: Stream on Hulu; rent via Amazon, iTunes, and Vudu 8. The Devil's Candy Released: March 17 Cast: Ethan Embry, Shiri Appleby, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Kiara Glasco Director: Sean Byrne The Loved Ones Why it's great: In The Devil's Candy, a pleasant family moves into a Texas farmhouse only to butt heads repeatedly with the home's former owner. It doesn't take long for the lean, mean stalker movie to erupt with terror. Is The Devil's Candy a haunted-house story, a psycho-dad story, or an occult horror story? Sort of all three, and the eerie ambiguity makes it so interesting. With tension that percolates for 60 straight minutes, this movie boasts a great Ethan Embry performance, a few well-crafted scares, and some ass-kickin' heavy-metal tunes. Where to watch it: Stream on Netflix; rent on iTunes, Amazon, YouTube, and VOD 7. A Dark Song Released: April 28 Cast: Catherine Walker, Steve Oram, Susan Loughnane Director: Liam Gavin Why it's great: We've all seen 1,000 horror movies in which a small group of people venture into an isolated domicile only to eventually butt heads with something horrific -- but you probably haven't seen one quite like this. It's about a grieving mother and a weird occultist who hole up in a freaky house for a year! This simple and impressively novel concept is explored in ways that will appeal to theologists and genre fans in equal measure. And don't let anyone spoil the ending for you! Where to watch it: Stream on Netflix; rent via Amazon, iTunes, and Vudu 6. Prevenge Released: March 24 Cast: Alice Lowe, Kate Dickie, Gemma Whelan Director: Alice Lowe Why it's great: Not every slasher flick stars a 7ft dude in a mask. Alice Lowe, star of the sadistic comedy Sightseers, makes her directorial debut with this dark and amusing movie. Prevenge follows a very pregnant and very unhinged woman who appears to be on a murder spree. It doesn't take long for the viewer to realize that there's a maternal method to her madness. Prevenge adds a unique shade to the horror-comedy spectrum. Where to watch it: Stream on Shudder or via Amazon Prime Video 5. Raw Released: March 10 Cast: Garance Marillier, Ella Rumpf, Rabah Nait Oufella Director: Julia Ducournau Why it's great: A virginal vegetarian ventures to veterinary school, gets caught up in some truly strange hazing rituals, and quickly comes to reject her meat-shunning ways. Eventually, ground beef and chicken cutlets don't cut it, and there's some… cannibalism to speak of. Call Raw a brazen coming-of-age story, a twisted horror movie, a clever indictment of conformity, or one of the darkest college comedies ever made, but this freaky French import is nothing short of fascinating. Where to watch it: Stream on Netflix, rent on iTunes, Amazon, Vudu, and YouTube 4. Where to watch it: Stream on Netflix 3. I opted to include this film in the list because while it's definitely a distant cousin to scare-first horror movies, genre fans will once again appreciate the way del Toro treats his cryptozoological wonders. Where to watch it: In theaters 2. I guess clowns are just that scary. And kudos to all these kid actors. Not a sour apple in the bunch. Where to watch it: In theaters 1. Get Out Released: February 24 Cast: Daniel Kaluuya, Allison Williams, Catherine Keener, Bradley Whitford Director: Jordan Peele Why it's great: Get Out tackles all sorts of uncomfortable social issues, and does so in a playfully freaky, and frequently insightful, fashion. The movie's all about a young black guy who heads off with his white girlfriend to meet her oh-so-progressive family, and realizes that something is very wrong with the racial divide in this sleepy little town. Peele employs suspense and tension throughout most of the movie -- with some comedy on the side, of course -- and then lowers the hammer with a finale that's demented fun. Like the best horror flicks, Get Out borrows a little from movie history while forging ahead with a unique perspective. This movie will entertain and make you think. Where to watch it: Rent on iTunes, Amazon, Vudu, and YouTube.
