2022’s Essential New Horror Movies to Stream

Every year, we see an unending tide of mediocre horror movies fill up streaming services and theaters, such as the cult-clichéd The Long Night, the visually-disastrous shark flick The Requin, and the appalling sequel of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. So when there is one worth watching available to stream right now, everyone needs to know about it! Here are the three stream-able films of 2022 recommended for horror lovers.

The feature-length debut of Mimi Cave is an exciting, brand-new horror/comedy that follows a young woman’s terror in finding out about her date’s unusual sexual proclivities. Fresh is co-produced by Don’t Look Up director Adam McKay.

In a unique family drama twist on the occult horror formula, a real-life mother and daughter portray a family living alone in the upstate New York woods who spend their time foraging for food and making heavy metal music. Soon, the aging daughter wants to see more of life, but circumstances and new details about her family lead to thrilling and horrifying events for everyone involved.

In the first sequel without the direction of horror legend Wes Craven, Scream puts new faces behind the camera to inject life into the old formula with returning stars Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette. The mask of Ghostface returns to the town 25 years after the original film in a surprisingly vital fifth entry to the franchise.
