Top 2023 Hollywood horror movies that's worth your time

Hollywood saw lots of ups and down this year, yet horror films continued to see a consistent attraction. Franchies like M3GAN, The Pope’s Exorcist, Talk to Me, Thanksgiving were born this year. The favourites like Evil Dead Rise, Insidious: The Red Door, The Nun II saw all the love.

Skinamarink, The Outwaters, Cocaine Bear, Beau is Afraid, A Knock at the Cabin, The Exorcist: Believer, and Five Nights at Freddy’s all had their defenders and detractors. Wars were fought but few were won with anything resembling a consensus. Only time will tell how these films will be re-evaluated if they will at all.

While the writers strike resulted in a slowdown in major news, the biggest story in the realm of horror was Miramax beating out A24 for the rights to the Halloween franchise. Other news included James Wan and Jason Blum moving ever closer to consolidating their horror banners Atomic Monster and Blumhouse, and Sony revitalizing Screen Gems to focus on horror with writer-director, Gary Dauberman (It, Annabelle, The Nun) signing a first-look deal.
