The year-end conversation on horror’s best films of 2018 would not be complete without Apostle.

Taking on the task of recording the last words of a dying man, a young videographer answers an online ad to work for a day in a remote town. Upon noticing the man’s odd behavior, he starts to question his intentions. It is Brice’s directorial debut, and it is rather predictable but cheerfully disturbing. It’s a character study starring the ever-prolific Mark Duplass. It follows a guy who’s hired to document an eccentric recluse’s life out in the woods, but finds himself trapped there. Their early exchanges have an awkward intensity to them. While genre experts will undoubtedly predict what’s going to happen, it’s a well-crafted story that succeeds on the strength of its characters’ chemistry.
28. I’m Thinking of Ending Things (2020)
IMDb Rating: 6.6/10
Cast: Jessie Buckley, Jesse Plemons, Toni Collette, David Thewlis
Runtime: 2h 14min
A young woman goes to see her new boyfriend’s parents on their secluded farm with misgivings. Her arrival causes her to question everything she has known about him. In the early hours after I’m Thinking of Ending Things begins, many viewers will consider ending the show. Cross-dissolved crude shots detail the interior of a farmhouse or apartment. In the midst of describing something for which we have no context, a woman who has not yet been seen tells us something we don’t know about. We finally see the woman, played by the brilliant Jessie Buckley. She is outside as snowflakes begin to fall. It seems as though she would like to break things off with Jake. The reasoning seems to be that things won’t get better. When Jake drives the car and talks sometimes, his behavior appears pretty consistent, until something erupts like a foreign object from another self. The film itself rejects the platitude of accepting both beauty and ugliness in life.
29. Crimson Peak (2015)
IMDb Rating: 6.5/10
Cast: Tom Hiddleston, Jessica Chastain, Mia Wasikowska
Runtime: 2hÂ
An aspiring writer struggles between her love for a childhood friend and her attraction to a mysterious outsider after a tragedy affects her family. The ghost of her past follows her to a house that is alive, bleeding, and remembers. Edith’s face, adorned with open wounds, informs the audience what kind of film it is, as does the sequence with her young mother’s blackened osseous ghost, who visits her in the dead of night. Crimson Peak does not cater to taste or aim to be universal. Instead, it aims to freak the hell out of its viewers.
30. It Comes at Night (2017)
IMDb Rating: 6.2/10
Cast: Joel Edgerton, Christopher Abbott, Carmen Ejogo, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Riley Keough
Runtime: 1h 31min
A man and his wife and son have established a tenuous domestic order within a desolate home while an unnatural threat terrorizes the world. But then a family seeking refuge arrives. It Comes at Night haunts you immediately. In the very first scene of the film, an old man (David Pendleton) wheezes while covered in boils, his skin festering. With a lot of care, each successive detail is revealed: first the man’s defeated face, then his labored breathing and finally the muffled voices of reassurance, telling him it’s OK to let go and that he’s loved. After that, we see that the voices are muffled by the gas masks. After that, we see the people in gas masks carrying the old man out into the woods where he is shot in the head and then incinerated in a hole.
31. Fear Street Part 1: 1994 (2021)
IMDb Rating: 6.2/10
Cast: Kiana Madeira, Olivia Scott Welch, Benjamin Flores Jr., Julia Rehwald, Fred Hechinger, Maya Hawke
Runtime: 1h 47min
An unwitting circle of teenage friends accidentally find the ancient evil behind a long string of brutal murders which have plagued their town for 300 years. It is the first installment of Netflix’s R.L. The Fear Street adaptations quickly establish themselves as far more violent and gory than past Goosebumps movies. It refers to a lot of other 1980s slashers, such as Intruder, and has a lot of references to Scream, but also hides some of its deeper mysteries, which are revealed in Fear Street: 1978 and Fear Street: 1666. In the end, we’re left with a film that nicely illustrates its mythology, and a film that includes a significant amount of cinematic violence and making viewers uncomfortable.
32. We Summon the Darkness (2020)
IMDb Rating: 5.2/10
Cast: Alexandra Daddario, Amy Forsyth, Maddie Hasson, Keean Johnson, Logan Miller, Austin Swift, Johnny Knoxville
Runtime: 1h 31min
A road trip brings three best friends to a heavy-metal show where they bond with three aspiring musicians and attend an after-party at one of the girls’ country home. About 30 minutes into Marc Meyers’ We Summon the Darkness, the tables turn. The twist isn’t foreshadowed. Viewers who are paranoid might detect something suspicious. At first, it seems like a horror movie about teenagers in 1980s America forming a heavy metal band. A half-hour into the film, We Summon the Darkness still tells the story, but from the perspective of religious vultures exploiting the flocks fears for profit. In light of how well We Summon the Darkness keeps secrets, it’s a delight to watch.
33. Hush (2016)
IMDb Rating: 6.6/10
Cast: John Gallagher Jr., Michael Trucco, Kate Siegel
Runtime: 1h 21min
As a deaf and mute writer retreats into the woods to live a solitary life, she faces a masked killer at her window who threatens to kill her if she opens her mouth. The film, at its core, is simple and intimate. This story’s gimmick is that the protagonist is actually deaf and mute, so she cannot hear him coming or ask for help. There are several ways in which the film elevates itself. In the first place, Kate Siegel gives a superb performance as protagonist Maddie, displaying both vulnerability and resolve in just the right measure. The film’s scenes of violence are satisfyingly visceral, and provide an immediate sense of physicality. In the end, it is the villain who may leave a tad to be desired, but Hush is a good way to kick back at home with Netflix.
