17 Underestimated Horror Movies That Are Blood-Curdling

4. Lights Out (2016)

A family has to deal with some of them not being able to tell when the lights go out at night.



As a young girl, Rebecca could, terrifyingly enough, never actually tell when the lights went out at night. Now the same thing is happening to her little brother, and things might just get loco ese! If you’re scared of things that go bump in the night, maybe you should opt out.

5. Bone Tomahawk (2015)

A group of men set off to rescue people captured by brutal troglodytes in the harsh West.

This American horror Western (what a genre combo!) sees four men set out to rescue a group of people captured by a bunch of cannibalistic troglodytes. It stars Kurt Russell, who’s just always great, and the movie mostly follows the route of a regular Western flick filled with cynical witticisms and guttural remarks. That is, until the end, when shit pretty much hits the roof… or the floor, if we’re being literal.

6. The Final (2010)

A group of school outcasts decide to take violent and sadistic revenge on the kids who bullied them.

A bunch of bullied high school kids, led by a dude who looks scarily like the prime candidate for a school shooter, decide to take revenge on the bullies who torment them. This doesn’t consist of simple underwear pranks a la Revenge of the Nerds however. This gets a lot more real.

7. Martyrs (2008)

A woman sets out to take revenge on the people who tortured her as a child.

A young woman seeks to bring on the revenge on a group/cult of people who kidnapped and tortured her as a child. However, not everything is as it seems. Brutal, bloody and extreme, this movie has been polarising peeps for almost a decade.
