The Best Horror Movies From The 1990s

If, like me, you’re a bit of a horror fanatic, you’ll likely know that the ’90s horror movies often get a bit of stick, especially when compared to the golden era of horror films of the ’80s.

Whilst the ’80s saw the birth of popular franchises, along with some nausea-inducing grotesque body-horror films, the ’90s shifted away from these primary aspects and brought with it more serial killers, psychological scares, and a few remakes of older already-loved horror narratives. 

Whatever your view on the decade, the ’90s really did offer up some gems in the horror genre and I’ve hand picked them out just for you! So, let’s get to it…

1. The Silence of the Lambs

Miramax Films / Via youtube.com A musician who is brutally murdered comes back to life to avenge his and his fiancée’s murder in this 1994 action horror movie.

Part of a franchise? Yes, it’s a franchise based on the comics of the same name.

Good or so bad it’s good? It’s up to the mark.

Runtime: 1 hour 42 minutes

Why you should watch it: The Crow is an action horror that dabbles in superhero delight. It’s visually compelling with a tonne of grungy energy, and Brandon Lee delivered an iconic performance as Eric. Though it goes without saying that the tragedy surrounding the film and Lee’s death does also make it a sad and melancholic watch. 

The ’90s certainly served up a mix of horror films over the years, but which one is your favorite? Or do you have any other contenders that should have made the list?!
