Netflix: Be thankful for these November streaming horror movies

Netflix brought great horror in October (that means YOU, Haunting of Hill House)! Are they bringing us movies to be thankful for in November?

Netflix did a stellar job with their horror selections for October, and they definitely brought us the most talked-about offering with their 10-episode series The Haunting of Hill House. Let’s see what they are bringing to us for the month of Thanksgiving.

11/1:

Bram Stoker’s Dracula – The 1992 Francis Ford Coppola movie stars Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder, Anthony Hopkins and Keanu Reeves. Beautifully filmed, it won an Academy Award for Best Costume Design.

Cape Fear – The 1991 remake of the 1962 stalker film is the version Netflix is offering. It stars Robert De Niro, Nick Nolte, Jessica Lange, Robert Mitchum, Juliette Lewis and Gregory Peck, in what would turn out to be his last film role. This is a personal favorite of mine, De Niro’s performance is just chilling!

Cloverfield – The first movie in the Cloverfield franchise was released in 2008, followed by 10 Cloverfield Lane (2016) and The Cloverfield Paradox (2018). The found-footage style film was a huge success, and still holds up well today

From Dusk Till Dawn – One of my favorite vampire flicks, FDTD was first released in 1996. Featuring George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino, Harvey Keitel and Juliette Lewis, it has become a cult classic. Violent and bloody, FDTD is NOT for the faint of heart.

Scary Movie 2 – Not really a horror movie, but rather a comedic spoof of horror, this sequel parodied supernatural / haunted house films (whereas the original spoofed slasher films).

Scary Movie 3 – The sequel to the sequel parodied science fiction, mystery and horror.

• Could Netflix and McG bring us another installment of The Babysitter?
• 31 Days of Horror: Incantation is a worthy found footage / cult film
• Netflix: The Devil on Trial is a fascinating documentary
• 31 Days of Horror: Mindhunter is a chilling, mind-blowing series
• Here’s where else you’ve seen the cast for The Fall of the House of Usher

Green Room– One of the best recent horror films (in my opinion), Green room is tense, violent, and incredibly well-written. It stars the late Anton Yelchin, Imogen Poots, Patrick Stewart and the amazing Alia Shawkat, and if you haven’t seen it, you now have no excuse!

May the Devil Take You – This Indonesian film follows a young woman who is trying to uncover the reason for her father’s illness. It has been compared to Sam Raimi’s outrageously bloody movies. The buzz on this is really good, it’s on my radar.

11/16:

Cam – This Netflix exclusive premiered at Fantasia in July, where it won multiple awards. Alice is a “camgirl” who discovers that a look-alike has somehow taken over her webcam porn account.

11/20:

Sabrina – Aiden is a doll maker, living with his wife Maira and their adopted daughter Vanya. When Vanya tries to summon her dead mother’s spirit, a demon is summoned instead.

11/22:

Mystery Science Theater 3000 – Really, do I need to explain this one? New series host Jonah and his robot buddies watch and “critique” a bunch of cheesy B movies.

Is that enough to fill up your November viewing calendars? Which of these offerings are you most looking forward to?
