There’s always something appealing about loading up a horror movie and submitting ourselves to the unsettling pleasures associated with this genre.

For those who like to be scared, to feel the shivers sweep up and down their spines, there are quite a few horror films available for streaming from Amazon Prime. While they’re a bit obscure, they are still definitely worth a watch.

10 Hostile (2017)

There’s no question that the apocalypse is one of the most persistent nightmares that haunts the collective human imagination. How does one survive, when all of society collapses? What happens to the individual? These are some of the questions asked by this film, which focuses on one young woman’s struggle to survive, even while she’s hunted by a terrifying nocturnal creature. The film itself is haunted by moments of her past, when we see what life was like before the end times.

9 Eat Locals (2017)

What do you get when you have a group of vampires meeting in an isolated English country house, a young man who thinks he’s going to hook up with an older woman, and a bunch of vampire hunters? You get this humorous yet slightly horrifying debut outing from director Jason Flemyng. Admittedly, it doesn’t quite reach the heights of other horror comedies, but it does have several moments of hilarity and just a dash of terror.

8 Sleepless In Salamanca (2020)

This film, a documentary from directors John Ward, Hilary Ward, and Marcus Haug follows a group of paranormal investigators as they visit the infamous Wildwood Sanitarium, where they encounter a variety of supernatural phenomena that are as chilling for the audience as they are for the characters in the film.

This is a must-watch film for those interested in the paranormal, and as well as for anyone who wants to see what an old sanitarium looks like (spoiler alert: very creepy!)

7 Oily Maniac (1976)

This is one of those interesting films that is, basically, so bad that it’s good (as the title might suggest). It’s about a man who becomes something of a mix between a superhero and a monster by becoming the titular oily maniac. The plot is almost completely illogical and the monster is about as far from scary as it is possible to be, but if you approach it with a camp perspective, you will not doubt be rewarded after watching this film.

6 Don’t Torture a Duckling (1972)

Don’t let the rather absurd title fool you; this film from Italy is a truly disturbing offering from director Lucio Fulci. It focuses on a rash of child murders in an isolated Italian town, as well as the efforts to discover who is doing the killing, the perversions of several of the townspeople, and the mixed motivations of almost every character. The film pushes every conceivable envelope, which makes it an excellent film for those looking for an alternative to American horror films of that era.

5 Twins of Evil (1971)

You know that you’re going to be in for a good horror film whenever you see the great Peter Cushing on the cast list. In this film, he plays the leader of a fanatical religious group devoted to destroying and stamping out vampirism, even as their vigilante tactics punish the innocent.

Given that it is, of course, produced by Hammer Film, it does veer into camp at times, but that is all the more reason to watch and enjoy it.

4 Deranged (1974)

Some might be familiar with the crimes of Ed Gein, the Midwestern man who murdered women and then mutilated their bodies. Certainly the true story was horrifying enough, and here it gets the horror movie touch. Roberts Blossom, who plays the Gein character (here named Ezra Cobb) would go on to become famous as the elderly neighbor in Home Alone. Critics at the time praised the film for playing down on the sensationalism.

3 The Vampire Doll (1970)

For those looking for a horror film that comes from outside the United States, The Vampire Doll, a 1970 Japanese film, should be just the ticket. The film follows Keiko and Hirashi as they go to an isolated country house in pursuit of Keiko’s missing brother. There, they gradually uncover all sorts of horrifying things. It was very well-reviewed at the time, with The New York Times in particular praising the film’s writing, performances, and staging.

2 Red Velvet (2008)

Though blockbuster films often get the lion’s share of reviews and attention, every so often an independent film comes along that gets the respect that it deserves. Such is certainly the case with this film, which focuses on a psychotic killer who slaughters the attendants at a birthday party. Among others, the film stars Henry Thomas, most famous for his appearance in the film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial and, more recently, The Haunting of Hill House.

1 The Descent (2005)

There seems to be something innately chilling and terrifying about the idea of going deep beneath the earth, uncertain of what sort of creatures you will find there and how well you will survive. It is precisely this primordial fear that The Descent taps into, plunging us, and the characters, into the dark world of caves and subjecting us to the murderous impulses of the creatures that dwell out of sight.
