Best Supernatural Horror Movies

As way of introduction we would like to point out that our top horror movies list is not done using star ratings. We use a battle system where we pit each movie against another and whichever film wins the most times moves up the horror movie rankings. This system prevents people voting items up and down and makes it an as honest as possible top list!

Newly added icon indicates the movie is availble on the USA Netflix Service. ( Canada / International Coming )

The Top Horror Movies list is powered by the community of HorrorMovies.ca and the users of TMDB

How The Rankings Work: A movie is rated based on the number of battles it wins. It also gets bonuses for appearing on many top lists.

A film is not ranked until it reaches The Top 100. Until then scores and ratings are kept but the film has no rank in our database.
