Every year, you never know what the horror genre is going to unleash upon the world. You have an unsuspecting audience, just waiting to have their deepest and darkest fears manipulated.... all in the comfort of an air conditioned theater or their home. Not every year has been full of winners, some have proven to be better than others, but 2016 has yielded some very interesting genre fare that is full of a little bit of everything under the sun. My fellow creeps, I've put together what I feel (in my humble opinion) to be the best of the best for this year. There were a few that were nudged out by only inches and that's not a bad thing. It just proves that there are more stories to tell and makes me dream about all the amazing scares yet to come. So, without further adieu, I give you my top 13 horror films of 2016! (based on release dates and not the years they were filmed.... although some may be in the last quarter of 2015.)
12) Southbound
Anthology films are tricky and the good ones are few and far between. 'Southbound' kind of came in below the radar, but should have been heralded as one of the good ones. All the stories are interesting and tie together beautifully at the end. It can be a bit rough at times, with the blood and guts, but totally worth it. If you haven't heard of this one or already seen it.... consider this your wake up call. This one is a classic in the anthology subgenre.
