10 Classic Horror Films Streaming on Hulu
Hulu has really stepped up their game this year in providing their subscribers some great horror film offerings. Below is a list of ten of the best classic horror films Hulu is currently streaming.
ROSEMARY’S BABY (1968)
A classic in modern paranoia, witchcraft, and bad birthing advice!! The performances are fantastic, and Roman Polanski is at the top of his game.
DAY OF THE DEAD (1985)
The third film in George Romero’s groundbreaking Dead Trilogy. This is the darkest film of the three (in both atmosphere and story), and this one also goes completely over the top with the gore effects. A damn near perfect film.
HORROR EXPRESS (1972)
Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing headline the story of a trans-siberian train ride which has a mysterious creature running amok on it, killing all the passengers. This one is as fun as it is classic.
DON’T LOOK NOW (1973)
Looking for a meditation on grief and guilt and misery and the consequences of not being able to let go of the past? Look no further. Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie give amazing performances in Nicolas Roeg’s seminal work.
THE BROOD (1979)
One of the classic films that cemented David Cronenberg as the King of Body Horror!! THE BROOD is what happens when a cutting edge psychological technique allows a patient to physically manifest her mental illness. This is a story that only Cronenberg could have dreamt up!!
DESTROY ALL MONSTERS (1968)
This is like the EXPENDABLES of GODZILLA movies!! All your favorite monsters can be found here being controlled by a race of female aliens who are using them to destroy all of humanity. Directed by the king of Japanese monster movies, Ishirô Honda, DESTROY ALL MONSTERS is a ton of fun.
HELLRAISER (1987)
If you haven’t seen this pivotal horror film from the late 1980s in a while, then you need to revisit it. Clive Barker gives us something contemporary and gothic, cerebral and disgusting. This is an all around fantastic classic film.
SISTERS (1973)
Brian De Palma’s classic film about personal identity, mental illness, and how to learn to keep your nose out of other people’s business!! Beware of the 2006 remake. Blech!!
HELLBOUND: HELLRAISER 2 (1988)
Not often does a sequel equal the intensity of the original film and then go beyond it!! The scope of the film was opened up to include parts of the film to take place in Hell, and we get a better, more in-depth look at the Cenobites. This is an incredibly gory follow up that works on every level.
DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN (1971)
I remember watching this one on Saturday mornings during the UHF channel 48 Creature Double Feature program. The story is crazy, it is set in the hippy community in California, and it stars Lon Chaney Jr.. Oh yeah, and the final fight scene is fun as hell!!
Stay Bloody!!!
