The 30 Best Horror Movies to Watch on Netflix

In a world where big-budget superhero movies and franchises are taking over modern cinema, it can be hard for the hopeless romantics among us to find a good old-fashioned romantic comedy. Fortunately for those who like a classic "will-they-won’t-they story" about an unlikely couple falling in love, Netflix is here to let you stream some of the best and most hilarious rom-coms.

When someone says they're a fan of horror movies, they could mean a lot of things — that they love tense psychological thrillers like Gerald's Game, meta-classics like the Scream franchise, supernatural scare-fests like The Autopsy of Jane Doe, or one of the many other heart-pounding and harrowing subgenres to choose from.

Like comedy or horror, "thriller" is a genre of entertainment that's meant to provoke a physical response in the viewer. In this case, you're supposed to feel stress. A great thriller will raise your blood pressure and make you forget to breathe. In the same way you watch a family drama to make yourself cry, you watch a thriller to feel controlled anxiety.

Some of the best comedy movies on Netflix right now are ones you've definitely seen before: , , and more classics. But intermixed with them are some newer titles you may have missed last year, like the Bridesmaids-adjacent or Someone Great, a rom-com starring Gina Rodriguez and Brittany Snow.

The best romantic movies are the ones you can watch over and over again. Whether it's Rose's goodbye to Jack in or that rain-kissing scene in , there are some film moments that are so iconic they've transcended pop culture and have become part of the way we live and think about love.

The world is messy and uncertain right now. One easy way to alleviate some of that anxiety, though, is with the best family movies currently streaming everywhere from to Amazon Prime Video to Disney+.Since we're all spending a lot more time inside our homes, everyone is in the market for some quality entertainment recommendations.

If you’re the type to start tearing up from just a sad movie trailer (hi, guilty), then you should be warned that every single one of the movies on this list will have you destroying an entire box of tissues. But if you’re the type of robot human who needs something REALLY sad to get the water works flowing, I found some options to split open your ice cold heart, too.

Sometimes you just need to watch someone kick some ass on screen for a few hours—that's where the best action movies come in.Taking down bad guys, stealing cars, starting an intergalactic war, and good old-fashioned saving the world moments are what the best action movies are made of, but, for some reason, people seem to assume that the genre is dominated by muscled up actors who look like The Rock...or Harrison Ford, if you're in an Indiana Jones sort of mood.

Not everyone has money to burn. We can't all shell out money every month for Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+ and/or whatever other streaming service subscriptions are fighting for our hard-earned cash these days.

We know you're tired of hearing about all the different streaming services you should subscribe to (especially since there are so, so many), but you should strongly consider subscribing to BritBox, which offers subscribers access to the best in British programming for just $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year. A subscription means you no longer have to dig through Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon to find your favorite British programs under all the American shows that are given priority.

For those of us who prefer to see the world through rose-colored glasses, there’s something so satisfying about watching a romantic comedy. Perhaps it's because you can almost always assume that everything will work out just fine for the protagonists by the end of the movie.

If you're new to the documentary genre and have a phobia of being bored, let me assure you that the films on this list are anything but dry or tedious. TBH you're probably gonna want to grab a tube of moisturizing eye drops because you won't even want to *blink* and miss a moment of edge-of-your-couch excitement.

Picking the best movies is a lot like choosing your favorite : It's difficult, and there really is no wrong answer. After all, there's a reason why these films have endured for so many years—why it doesn't matter if you were born in 1960 or 2000, you still had a formative screening of .

Of course you're in the mood to see the best comedy movies streaming services have to offer at the moment. If ever there was time when we're all feeling like, "I want to watch a movie that will make me laugh—not think or cry or feel too much, just laugh," it's now.

One reason horror movies are so great is that they make for a perfect distraction from anything that might be on your mind. And if you're anything like us, you could surely use a good distraction right about now.
