Horror Movies
Some would argue that this is one of the best film genres, while others refuse to watch these types of movies.

Thriller Movies
Thriller movies come with a lot of sub-genres within it. However, they all have one thing in common: You’ll be on the edge of your seat throughout the movie.
When thinking about a thriller movie, you’ll want to narrow it down to the sub-genre that is right for you between these:
- Crime thriller
- Psychological thriller
- Supernatural thriller

Some thrillers may be scarier than others, so reading through the plot and watching the trailer is always a good idea.
It’s also important to keep in mind that these may not be the best family movies or best kids’ movies since they can be a bit scarier. Something more like the Waltons cast would be a bit more kid friendly.
