The Vore's Film staff selects the top best Nigerian movies of 2017 in cinema, DVD and Netflix. Are Mildred Okwo, Desmond Elliot & Tunde Kelani Nigeria's biggest. General William Tecumseh Sherman might have famously declared that “war is hell,” but Hollywood has since decided that war makes the perfect backdrop for a movie. There's no ranking here, it's just an assortment of some of the best horror movies on Netflix to keep you inside on a chilly December night. And we have impeccable taste. You can trust us.. A Nightmare on Elm Street. It's here! It's finally here!
Sequels to Wes Craven's all- time classic 1. Netflix for awhile now and now the original will be making its debut as well. A Nightmare on Elm Street is one of the best horror movies of all time for many reasons: the direction, the iconic Freddy Krueger, and much more. But more than anything, it's the idea that there is no escape. Sure you can run, sure you can hide. You also have to sleep at one point. And when you do you'll dream. And when you dream: you're dead. Netflix Instant has all varieties of horror movies but these are the 15 you absolutely can't miss.An American Werewolf in London. Quite possibly the definitive werewolf movie, John Landis' 1. Peppered with loving references to the werewolf movies that came before it and a few legitimate laughs to go along with the scares, An American Werewolf in London is remarkably knowing and self- aware, but never, ever flirts with parody. Not enough can be said about Rick Baker's practical effects, which extend beyond the aforementioned on- screen transformation and into one of the most gruesome depictions of a werewolf attack aftermath you're ever likely to see. A classic of the era. The Babadook. When Stephen King once discussed his inspiration for writing The Shining, he recalled the time he discovered his young son had destroyed story notes in his office. Jennifer Kent’s The Babadook likewise finds the darker side of parenting with the scariest film of 2. A horror movie that is ostensibly about what happens when a single, low- income mother discovers that her child’s nightmare boogeyman is real, there is genuinely realterror here that comes beating from the darker side of her “Babadook” heart. While a loving son, there is no denying that the film’s young Samuel is a “problem child,” and through supernatural possession his mama has found a grim solution of sorts. When William Friedkin calls it the most terrifying horror movie he’s seen, you’re doing something right. Beyond the Gates. Board games can be creepy. VHS tapes can be creepy. Combine the creepiest versions of both and you've got yourself a really creepy movie. Beyond the Gates debuted just last year at the L. A. Film Festival and has ridden its way to Netflix on tremendous word of mouth. The indie horror movie involves two brothers who got to their father's estate to settle his affairs after his death. While at his house, they discover a mysterious VHS board game that eventually leads them to clues regarding their father's death.. The Crow. While we wouldn't call this one a horror film per se, The Crow is definitely a twisted revenge tale with some very dark moments. Based on a celebrated comic book, the movie's premise is a bit out there: a dead musician named Eric Draven is brought back from the dead by a supernatural crow so that he can avenge the rape and murder of his fiance. Draven sinks deeper into the seedy underworld of Detroit on Devil's Night, taking out the thugs that ended his life in gruesome ways. It is a real artistic gem, too, full of gothic spirit and an awesome soundtrack to boot. Brandon Lee, who tragically died in an accident during filming, gives an inspired performance as Draven. Dead Silence. While hardly the definitive “killer doll” movie, Dead Silence is an interesting flick because of how it marks a transition for director James Wan. The shrewd filmmaking director of the three biggest hit horror movies in the last 1. Saw, Insidious, and The Conjuring—had this one little anomaly in between the first two. Perhaps because he was not quite ready to be considered a “horror director” (he would go on to direct Furious 7 and is now slated to helm Aquaman), this is an enjoyably odd duck of film with elements of comedy, police procedural, and the occasionally pitch perfect horror set piece that he would begin cranking out in his sleep by the time The Conjuring and Insidious: Chapter 2 opened in the same summer. In many ways the prototype for the “Annabelle” prologue in Conjuring, Dead Silence tracks the curse of Mary Shaw a ventriloquist who made up for what she lacked in skill with murder. After killing a boy who dared to notice her lips moved while working with her dummy Billy, she herself was killed by vigilantes who removed her tongue—and generations henceforth of their descendants have shared the same mysterious fate when confronted with dummy Bill (hint: whatever you do, don’t scream). The movie has a nifty twist ending and is just silly enough to make for a pleasant collection of jump scares and faux urban legend mythmaking, if not exactly a memorable classic. Dead Snow. There are plenty of zombie movies, TV shows, video games, and even comics out there. But if you haven’t seen Dead Snow yet, rest assured that there is one walking dead realm not yet traversed for your viewing pleasure: Nazi zombies, of course! In Tommy Wirkola’s Norwegian calling card, the filmmaker reimagines the zombie genre to be one of snow, sleds, and swastikas. That’s what happens when a handful of friends decide that they want to go camping and skiing while in a cabin in the woods. Little did they realize that this mountain holds a terrible secret about a band of rogue Nazis who froze to death there in the winter of ’4. It turns out they died protecting their stolen Nazi gold, and they are so greedy that even in the Great Beyond, they will rise to protect the treasure. Thus it’s likely unwise to disturb any gold pieces that you find there. Too late. Okay, the plot is an excuse to see smarter- than- average zombies goose- steeping their way into elaborately graphic kills at the hands of snowmobiles, chainsaws, and all manner of skiing equipment. The gore is nasty and so is the fun. Extraordinary Tales. Some of Edgar Allan Poe’s most terror- inducing tales creep and crawl off the page in this animated horrorshow that isn’t just for kids. The aesthetic of each tale illustrates its particular terror. His Victorian nightmares materialize onscreen in different forms of animation ranging from eerie silhouettes to comic- book graphics to a 3- D effect that makes phantoms pop like digital origami. Poe himself (as—what else—a raven) converses with Death between tales, giving you enough time to catch your breath and calm the beating of your hideous heart before the next freakout. The Tell- Tale Heart pounds beneath the floorboards in a series of black and white silhouettes, a stark visual of innocence and murder, set to a vintage narration by Bela Lugosi. The torture chamber in the Pit and the Pendulum is so lifelike you think you’re the one about to be razored open. Poe must be grinning from beyond the grave. From Dusk Till Dawn. And here we have what is quite possibly the most quotable film on this list, although certainly not the best. The pairing of Robert Rodriguez (director) and Quentin Tarantino (writer) made for an insane, two- pronged Grindhouse- style extravaganza. It's a low- rent heist aftermath movie for its first half and then it shifts gears into insane survival horror for the second. From Dusk Till Dawn is the only movie you're going to watch this month that features Tom Savini wielding a gun on his crotch, and Fred Williamson killing vampires alongside George Clooney and Harvey Keitel. It's unlikely you haven't seen this one, but even if you have, there's always a good time to be had at the Titty Twister. The Fury. Brian De Palma is the filmmaker responsible for possibly the best adaptation of a Stephen King novel (Carrie), but he followed that up with this equally perverse, but sadly less remembered, cult classic. The Fury is essentially a grim, nihilist's version of what would happen if Charles Xavier and Jean Grey were not so nice. In this horror film, twin siblings have the ability to enter anyone's mind- -and kill them in the most De Palma way possible. This is used to negative effect by the U. S. It also includes Carrie's Amy Irving. A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night. In the Iranian ghost town of Bad City, there is a girl who walks alone at night. But if you should venture to speak with her, you might regret finding out why. This wonderfully surreal film from Iranian- American director Ana Lily Amirpour should bridge differences with its implicitly lascivious nature. A young man who is forced to walk a depressing and desolate street because his father is a heroin addict finds himself enamored with a young woman whose black cape might be a shroud for all the corpses she leaves in her wake. It’s clever, occasionally romantic, and completely subversive of both real- life cultures and their vampiric alternatives. Hannibal. While hardly the best film to feature Anthony Hopkins as Dr. Hannibal Lecter, there is still plenty to admire about this 2. Silence of the Lambs. For starters, Hannibal the Cannibal is back, and Hopkins' gift for scene- chewing again allows him to make the consumption of human flesh seem kind of classy. Additionally, director Ridley Scott offers a visually stunning and suprisingly grim perspective for the monuments of Florence, and the decadence of European aristocracy while stalking Lecter's movements. For just the first hour alone, as Giancarlo Giannini plays a cat- and- mouse game with Hannibal where it is unclear who is hunter and who is prey, Hannibal can make the skin crawl. And the good doctor would probably consider that a delicacy, too. Hellraiser. Of the first of three theatrical films that Clive Barker would direct himself, Hellraiser would go on to warrant eight sequels and create one of the most notorious horror franchises of all time. Best Movies On Netflix Right Now: Good Films, Ranked. Warner Brothers. Last Updated: July 1. The Netflix name has meant many things during the company’s relatively short existence: a source for DVDs by mail, a pioneer of online streaming, a network responsible for some of the best shows not on TV, as the first half of the phrase that ends “and chill.” It’s never quite evolved, however, into what some have hoped it would, as the source for must see movies, new and old. When it comes to good films, Netflix’s streaming service isn’t close to being what it was at its height as a DVD- by- mail service: a place to watch anything from anywhere and any time. Looking for something new and indie? Netflix Instant probably has you covered. Looking for something beyond that description? The service is hit or miss. It’s a great place to watch old episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents, not so great when it comes to watching Alfred Hitchcock movies. Which isn’t to say there aren’t great films on the streaming service right now. Narrowing them down to just 2. Netflix films wasn’t easy. Nonetheless, here’s a ranked list of the best movies on Netflix streaming no film lover should miss, all of them just a simple click away. Related: The 2. 5 Best Movies On Hulu Right Now. New World. 20. Heathers (1. At the tail end of a decade of teen films dominated by John Hughes movies came Heathers, which turned Hughes’ observations of high school cliques into black comedy. There’s no Saturday- morning detention long enough to bring piece to the warring factions of Westerburg High, so outsider JD (Christian Slater) decides to expose the underlying hypocrisy with the help of Veronica (Winona Ryder) — but without telling her there will be a corpse or two involved. Though much- imitated, Daniel Waters’ screenplay remains a model of dark wit. It’s still the take- no- prisoners high- school comedy all others want to be. Add To Netflix Queue. IFC Films. 19. Carlos (2. Olivier Assayas’ film follows the rise and fall of terrorist Carlos the Jackal (Edgar Ramirez), from his high- profile crimes in the early ’7. It’s a work of sweeping ambition that taps into the chaos of post- ’6. Europe, one driven by Ramirez’s charismatic lead performance. Carlos is charming, terrifying, and, in the end, kind of pathetic. The film is available in two forms: a feature- length version that compresses the story and a three- part miniseries version that first ran on European TV. The latter is essentially three individual movies, each with its own tone. The long version’s the way to go. Carve out the time and watch it as it was supposed to be seen. Add To Netflix Queue.
