Horror fans know that Hulu isn’t just a platform for comedy and drama; it’s also home to some of the most underrated and spine-chilling original horror films. Whether you’re into eerie psychological thrillers, monster mayhem, or unsettling social horror, Hulu has something for you. Let’s look at some of the best options streaming right now.
Hulu Original Horror
Treehouse
Treehouse is part of Hulu’s “Into the Dark” anthology series, which has a total of 24 films, many of which deserve some attention. This movie centers on a celebrity chef who tries to get away by visiting his family’s remote estate, only to find dark supernatural forces representing the misdeeds of his past. It is a perfect option for those who like psychological horror films like Hereditary and The Witch.
Little Monsters
If you think zombie movies have run out of fresh ideas, Little Monsters will change your mind. It’s a horror comedy that blends blood and guts with laugh-out-loud moments and brings a new twist to the genre by placing the zombie apocalypse in the middle of a kindergarten field trip. Lupita Nyong’o steals the show as Miss Caroline, the teacher in charge of protecting the kids, and it’s perfect for anyone who enjoyed Shaun of the Dead, Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, or Zombieland
Good Boy
Horror movies often find unique ways to bring animals to the screen, but Good Boy takes this idea to a whole new level to create a dark, comedic, psychological horror film that turns what seems to be an adorable pet into an overprotective monster. Watching this will have you laughing in an unsettling way, especially if you have a pet. It’s full of satire and perfect for anyone who liked Gremlins, Happy Death Day, or The Babysitter.
Delivered
Horror films centered around pregnancy can often be the scariest since they look into the primal fear of losing control over your body and safety, and Delivered takes that to the extreme. It follows a pregnant woman who gets kidnapped by someone with sinister plans for her baby. It features strong performances, tense scenes, and realistic horror that is perfect for anyone who enjoys films like Misery, Hush, Rosemary’s Baby, and Gerald’s Game.
Pooka Lives
If you thought the original Pooka! was weird, Pooka Lives! takes the concept to a whole new level by blending horror, humor, and internet culture into something really extraordinary. It’s about a group of friends participating in an internet challenge only to summon a monstrous creature. It will certainly stand out as one of the stranger films on this list and is perfect for anyone who enjoyed Happy Death Day, The Babysitter, and Candyman.
