"Famed film critic Robin Wood defined horror as "normality is threatened by the monster." Well-crafted horror movies can make any topic scary. In 2016 Jordan Peele made a white family and their idyllic country home terrifying in Get Out. The Child's Play franchise made a children's doll scary. Ari Aster's Midsommar (2019) takes place almost entirely in broad daylight.One scientific study measured audience heart rates while watching horror movies and determined that Sinister (2012) was the scariest movie of all time. Another study said the scariest movie ever made is Host (2020). This list compiles horror movies that top every "scariest" list as well as some lesser known films that scared the crap out of us. These films are genuinely terrifying and should be viewed with caution."
