Horror has always been a viable genre in movies, and while it goes through boom periods and less successful cycles like any genre, it has never fully gone away. Horror movies are (generally) cheap to produce and so, don’t have to make a whole lot of money to be profitable. But the ones that do catch on with the public?
They are incredibly profitable, which is why so many horror franchises have entries that stretch into the double digits. People just love being scared in the safe environment of the cinema or snuggled up on the sofa at home.
This article will look at the best horror movies that have been released since the year 2000. You’ll see a healthy mix of franchise fare mixed in with some smaller indie movies. What you won’t see, however, is any foreign language horror. This is not because we don’t like J-horror or the gory offerings of the French and Spanish; it’s because there were simply too many of them to list.
Now, on to our list…
12. Evil Dead (2013)
Released in 2013, Evil Dead was both a remake and a sequel to Sam Raimi‘s original 1981 film, according to director Fede Alvarez. Whether this was a way to appeal to fans who were unimpressed at the idea of their beloved horror classic being remade, or the creative people involved genuinely felt this way, is up in the air. The movie certainly has a lot of similarities to the original, but it also forges its own path as well.
Either way, this Evil Dead is a gloriously entertaining and relentlessly brutal horror movie. Director Alvarez does a great job with the look of the film, and also stacks up well next to Raimi when it comes to camera tricks and ingenuity. The film is insanely bloody and will make even the most hardened gorehound wince at times. Some reviewers called the movie an assault on the senses, but meant it in a positive way, and we think that sums up the movie’s charms pretty well!
