Best New Horror Movies on Netflix: Autumn 2017
Tumblr media
There's an overwhelming amount of horror movies to sift through on Netflix, so I've decided to take out some of the legwork by compiling a list of the season's best new genre titles on Netflix's instant streaming service.
Please feel free to leave a comment with any I may have missed and share your thoughts on any of the films you watch. You can also peruse past installments of Best New Horror Moves on Netflix for more suggestions.
Tumblr media
1. The Void
Not afraid to wear its influences on its sleeve, The Void is a fun amalgam of genre favorites such as The Thing, Hellraiser, Prince of Darkness, The Beyond, and Assault on Precinct 13, along with a healthy dose of H.P. Lovecraft for good measure. The '80s inspiration is furthered by a plethora of practical effects and a pulsating, John Carpenter-esque synthesizer score. Set in the most understaffed hospital since Halloween 2, a small group of people fight to survive against Lovecraftian monsters and cultists. A lot of the plot points are familiar, but the astonishing effects are more than enough to make it feel fresh and exciting.
Tumblr media
2. The Transfiguration
Like a modern take on George A. Romero's Martin, The Transfiguration is a subversive vampire film. It's also an urban coming-of-age tale with social commentary. The plot concerns an adolescent boy (Eric Ruffin, The Good Wife) who is a practicing vampire in New York City. Not just an avid watcher of horror films - although he name-checks plenty of them - he partakes in murder to drink blood. He begins to question his outlook on life when he befriends a girl who's also an outcast (Chloe Levine, The Defenders). Although largely a somber, dramatic film, there are a couple of truly shocking moments. Due to how raw and real it feels, this one will stick with you.
Tumblr media
3. The Devil's Candy
Written and directed by Sean Byrne (The Loved Ones), The Devil's Candy combines elements of haunted house, demonic possession, and home invasion movies, all with a lean toward heavy metal music. It follows a struggling artist (a nearly unrecognizable Ethan Embry, Can’t Hardly Wait), his wife (Shiri Appleby, Roswell), and their teenage daughter (Kiara Glasco, Map to the Stars) as they move into a new home. Meanwhile, the house's disturbed former resident (the great Pruitt Taylor Vince, Constantine) returns, and he takes a liking to the young girl. It's akin to a 1970s slow-burner with modern sensibilities. The restrained approach allows the audience to become more invested in the characters, building toward an unpredictable and emotionally draining final act. Read my full review of the film here.
Tumblr media
4. A Dark Song
A Dark Song is an engrossing slow-burn horror film predominantly told with two actors in one location. The story involves a grieving woman (Catherine Walker, Ferocious Planet) who seeks the aid of an unstable cultist (Steve Oram, Sightseers) to perform an elaborate ritual that allows you to ask a guardian angel for a favor. She wants her deceased child back, but this is far from a Pet Sematary retread. It's all about the build-up, with some genuinely creepy moments along the way before it culminates in a tense finale. Irish writer-director Liam Gavin makes a powerful debut anchored by strong performances.
Tumblr media
5. What Happened to Monday
What Happened to Monday is set in the not too distant future, when a strict one-child policy is enforced in an effort to preserve the planet. Noomi Rapace (Prometheus) stars as septuplets, who hide from the government by sharing a life; each one only goes out during the day of the week for which they’re named. When Monday disappears, the other six siblings must track her down before someone else does. Rapace wonderfully diversifies the seven parts, and it's quite impressive to see them all seamlessly interacting with one another in the same shot. Willem Dafoe (Spider-Man) plays the girls' grandfather who raised them, while Glenn Close (Fatal Attraction) is the head of the agency stripping families of their children. Tommy Wirkola (Dead Snow) directs some superb action sequences in this sci-fi mystery thriller.
Tumblr media
6. American Fable
American Fable is true to its name, often playing out like something of a dark fairy tale in the country’s heartland, but its fantastical elements largely take a backseat to a rural drama with mystery/thriller elements. Writer-director Anne Hamilton, who got her start as an intern on Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Life, makes a dynamic feature debut. Set in the 1980s, the story revolves around Gitty (Peyton Kennedy, Odd Squad), an 11-year-old girl with an affinity for storytelling. She finds herself in a real-life fairy tale upon discovering a man (Richard Schiff, The West Wing) imprisoned in a silo on her family's struggling farm. The picture is an admirable American complement to Guillermo del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth; not only are their stories thematically analogous, but they also share a similar horned creature. Read my full review of the film here.
Tumblr media
7. Here Alone
Here Alone is a zombie movie in which the zombies are almost never on screen - and that's not a bad thing. It depicts the hardships Ann (Lucy Walters, Power) must endure and the elaborate precautions she must take in order to survive, weaving between two different points in time: early in the apocalypse with her husband (Shane West, A Walk to Remember) and their baby, and the present when she befriends a fellow survivor (Adam David Thompson, Mozart in the Jungle) and his teenage daughter. Director Rod Blackhurst (Amanda Knox) delivers a subtle, dramatic character piece with shades of The Walking Dead by crafting dynamic characters backed by engaging performances.
Tumblr media
8. Little Evil
Tucker and Dale vs Evil writer-director Eli Craig returns to horror-comedy with Little Evil. Having perfected his deadpan delivery on Parks and Recreation, Adam Scott makes awkward an artform as a man who believes his new wife's (Evangeline Lilly, Lost) 6-year-old son is the literal Antrichrist. The supporting cast, underutilized as they may be, is also great, including Bridget Everett (Patti Cakes), Clancy Brown (The Shawshank Redemption), Tyler Labine (Tucker and Dale vs Evil), Donald Faison (Scrubs), and Sally Field (Forrest Gump), who is Craig's mother. The most obvious influence is The Omen - it's even name-dropped in the movie - but there are also references to the likes of Poltergeist, Ghostbusters, Children of the Corn, Rosemary's Baby, Child's Play, and The Shining. It's not always laugh-out-loud funny, but it remains entertaining throughout.
Tumblr media
9. Patchwork
Patchwork is like a modern take on Frankenhooker with a dash of Re-Animator for good measure. It may not be as masterful a blend of horror and comedy as those '80s classics, but it's delightfully absurd just the same. It also offers a bit of social commentary, namely regarding the issues modern dating women face. Three girls - stuck up Jennifer (Tory Stolper), naive Ellie (Tracey Fairaway, Hellraiser: Revelations), and weird Madeline (Maria Blasucci) - are murdered, sewn together, and brought back to life by a mad scientist. They must learn to coexist in the same body in order to exact revenge. Cleverly conceived by director Tyler MacIntyre (Tragedy Girls), the girls are portrayed as one Frankenstein-ed creature in some shots and as three individual women in others.
Tumblr media
10. Death Note
While purists decry the changes that Death Note made from the popular Japanese manga on which it's based, those with an open mind (or, like me, unfamiliar with the source material) ought to enjoy this Netflix original film. A book labeled Death Note literally falls from the sky to the feet of Light (Nat Wolff, Paper Towns), granting the high school student the power to take the life of anyone whose name he writes inside. Quickly realizing its power without fully recognizing the responsibility, Light dishes out vigilante justice remotely, killing criminals and becoming a worldwide phenomenon. Also mixed up in it are Light's love interest (Margaret Qualley, The Leftovers), his detective father (Shea Whigham, American Hustle), a mysterious man trying to catch him (Lakeith Stanfield, Get Out), and Ryuk (Willem Dafoe, Spider-Man), the monstrous keeper of the book. There's a definite sense that the story has been condensed, things may have been lost in translation, and the fast pacing takes away from the weight of the situation. It may not be a highlight of his filmography, but director Adam Wingard (Blair Witch, You’re Next) delivers a fun, stylish movie with some gory, Rube Goldbergian deaths a la Final Destination.
Tumblr media
Bonus: Castlevania: Season 1
Castlevania is a Netflix original animated series based on the classic Konami video game series. Season 1 consists of only four episodes totaling around 90 minutes, resembling more of an anime film than a show, but it ends without a conclusion to the story. Thankfully, a second season is already in the works. Following the murder of his wife, Dracula summons a scourge of goblins to destroy the region of Wallachia and dismember every person along the way. Trevor Belmont, the last in an infamous family excommunicated for dealing in black magic while slaying monsters, leads the charge to bring down the legendary vampire. It's heavy on exposition, but each episode contains a couple of big action scenes to hold viewers over through the abundance of dialogue. Adult language, violence, and gore are on full display, looking great in old-school-style animation. The series is written by comic book scribe Warren Ellis (Red) and stars the voice talents of Richard Armitage (The Hobbit), James Callis (Battlestar Galactica), and Graham McTavish (Preacher).

Shoreham air crash pilot, 54, is found NOT guilty of manslaughter
Shoreham pilot Andrew Hill has been found not guilty of manslaughter. Speaking outside court today, he said he was ‘truly sorry’ for the part he played in the 11 deaths
The pilot whose plane crashed during the Shoreham Airshow, killing 11 men, has been cleared of manslaughter.
Andrew Hill had been attempting a loop-the-loop when his Hawker Hunter jet exploded into a fireball on the A27 on August 22, 2015.
Mr Hill miraculously survived after being thrown clear from the burning wreckage into brambles. 
The prosecution said the former RAF and British Airways pilot had been flying too low and slow as he attempted the disastrous stunt.
Prosecutor Tom Kark QC alleged Mr Hill had at times a ‘cavalier’ attitude to safety and a history of taking risks, having played ‘fast and loose’ with the rules in the past.
But the Old Bailey jury deliberated for just over seven hours before returning not guilty verdicts. 
Families of the victims sobbed and shook their heads at the back of the court.
Married Hill, whose wife Ellie is also a pilot, impassively stared at the floor of the dock as the jury unanimously found him not guilty of the manslaughter of the 11 victims by gross negligence. 
Speaking outside court, he read the names of each of those killed and said he was ‘truly sorry’ for the part he played in their deaths. He added that he would ‘remember them for the rest of my life’.
The plane came down on the A27 after attempting a loop-the-loop near the south coast town
Footage filmed by spectators showed the 1950s Hawker Hunter seconds before the crash
In a statement issued via Sussex Police, Sue and Phil Grimstone, whose son Matthew died in the crash, said: ‘Obviously we are devastated the jury have reached this verdict.
‘There seems to be no justice for our son Matthew and all 11 men who died in such tragic circumstances.
‘We were always told by the police that to prove guilty due to ‘gross negligence’ the bar was set very high. Despite having compelling evidence from the cockpit footage and expert witnesses, it was not enough.’
They added: ‘Why are we allowing any form of aerobatics to be performed when there is now doubt concerning any pilot’s ability to avoid becoming cognitively impaired from the normal G forces that will be experienced during an aerobatic display?
‘Matthew had no interest in air shows, he could not have cared less. Knowing he died because an aircraft was being flown for fun, for the entertainment of others makes it even harder to bear.
‘It has to be remembered that this is a leisure industry, it is not a necessity.’
Chilling footage showed the huge jet just moments before he landed on the busy A-road
The trial was shown footage of the horrific moment the 1950s jet came down on the busy road
Trial judge Mr Justice Edis acknowledged the families were ‘enormously upset’ as he praised the ‘very dignified way’ they conducted themselves throughout the case.
Pilot’s full statement outside court 
Andy Hill was composed and emotionless as he read a prepared statement outside the Old Bailey.
He said:  ‘1,295 days ago I lost control of an aircraft resulting in the deaths of Maurice Abrahams, Graham Mallinson, Mark Trussler, Dylan Archer, Richard Smith, Tony Brightwell, Mark Reeves, Matthew Grimstone, Jacob Schilt, Matt Jones, Daniele Polito.
‘A number of people were injured.
‘I am truly sorry for the part I played in their deaths, and it is all I will remember for the rest of my life.’
During the trial, Mr Hill had claimed he blacked out in the air, having experienced ‘cognitive impairment’ brought on by hypoxia possibly due to the effects of G-force.
The 54-year-old, of Buntingford, Hertfordshire, denied 11 counts of manslaughter by gross negligence.
Speaking for the first time in public since the incident when he gave evidence at the trial, he denied having a ‘cavalier’ attitude, insisting he was known for his safety record.
He has never watched footage that captured the moment of the crash and lowered his head when is was played to jurors.
The court heard this was on medical advice from his doctor over fears of how it would affect him.
Hill is now in good health, with medical checks before and after the crash showing no signs of a condition that would have affected him at the time, the court heard.
Prosecutors had claimed the 2015 crash was due to ‘pilot error’ and although Mr Hill was normally considered ‘careful and competent’, he had taken ‘risks’ in the past, suggesting he sometimes played ‘fast and loose’ with the rules and may have had a ‘more cavalier attitude to safety than was appropriate’.
Pictures from the aftermath of the crash showed debris strewn across the two-lane road
In 2017 a report by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch also found the disaster was caused by pilot error after the plane was too slow and too low during a loop manoeuvre.
But Mr Hill, an experienced former RAF instructor and British Airways captain, said he took a ‘very structured, disciplined approach’ to display flying.
He told jurors he sometimes held back from flights he was not comfortable with carrying out, adding: ‘We have our strengths and weaknesses.’
Mr Hill said he thinks about the tragedy every day and it was a ‘dominant’ thought in his mind. He said he never intended to cause any risk to anybody.
The victims were Maurice Abrahams, 76; Dylan Archer, 42; Tony Brightwell, 53; Matthew Grimstone, 23; Matt Jones, 24; Graham Mallinson, 72; Daniele Polito, 23; Mark Reeves, 53; Jacob Schilt, 23; Richard Smith, 26; and Mark Trussler, 54, who all lived in Sussex.
‘Someone who has made some very bad errors of judgment is allowed to walk free’: Mother of youngest victim says she feels ‘let down’ by the justice system
Daniele Polito was killed in the Shoreham air disaster. His mother is angry that the pilot has walked free from court
The mother of the youngest Shoreham Airshow crash victim said she feels ‘let down’ by the justice system after the pilot was cleared of manslaughter charges.
A jury found Andrew Hill not guilty of the 11 counts over the 2015 crash.
An official Government report into the accident, published in 2017, found the crash was caused by pilot error when Mr Hill flew too low and too slowly while carrying out the bent loop manoeuvre, and could have been avoided.
Leslye Polito, who lost her son Daniele in the crash, said: ‘I feel extremely disappointed, very upset and primarily let down by the justice system when someone who has clearly made some very bad errors of judgment is allowed to walk free.’
The 23-year-old builder left behind two young children, one of whom he never had chance to meet.
He had left work early and was travelling to the beach with a colleague when flames engulfed their car after the plane crashed on the A27.
Mrs Polito, 66, of Goring in West Sussex, said: ‘The whole fact that it was avoidable, that was the hardest bit to consider and process. It’s still the hardest bit.’
‘Bye mum, love you’ were the last words Mrs Polito heard her youngest son say, as she had so many times before when he left the house.
Daniele was described as ‘full of life, a joker and extremely family orientated’
That day he had been at work with 24-year-old Matt Jones, who also died in the crash. Their boss had let them leave early to enjoy the hot weather and they were driving to the beach in Mr Jones’s car.
She and her husband Nino were at a party when they heard about the crash and discussed it with guests but thought nothing more of it – no-one knew at that stage that anyone had died.
They thought Daniele was still at work. But both he and Mr Jones were killed, while their boss had been driving a few cars behind them and saw the horror unfold.
Mrs Polito said: ‘If there’s anything good about it, which there isn’t, it’s that it was all instant.
‘It helps to know that. One just learns to live each day as it comes and take every day and live as normally as one can.
‘Every birthday, Christmas, Father’s Day – it doesn’t matter what they are, they are all equally as difficult as the anniversary (of the incident).’
The family had no idea that Daniele had been caught up in the disaster when they heard of it
Daniele was never able to meet his youngest son, Jaxson, who was born after he died, Mrs Polito said.
Although they have ‘two lovely little boys to carry on his name’, she said this was ‘bittersweet’, adding: ‘We have that but we don’t have him and he won’t get to see either of them grow up.
‘We will make sure they know all about their daddy. We talk about Daniele all the time, every day.
‘He was full of life, a joker, he was extremely family orientated. Everything to him was family, I think due to his Italian heritage. He wanted to live life to the full.’
Victims’ families call for inquests to prevent similar future tragedies
A piece of the wreckage is winched from the scene after the Shoreham air crash
Families of the Shoreham Airshow crash victims have called for a ‘thorough and frank’ investigation to halt the grim death toll at displays across England.
Sarah Stewart, partner at law firm Stewarts, has represented most of the relatives of the 11 men killed at the 2015 show in West Sussex.
Four years on, they have settled compensation claims for undisclosed sums of money but are still waiting for answers.
Ms Stewart said the criminal trial of pilot Andrew Hill for manslaughter by gross negligence had put inquests ‘on hold’.
Its conclusion means that West Sussex Coroner Penelope Schofield can move ahead with full inquests and a thorough investigation into the wider issues.
The lawyer said: ‘Many families do not look for compensation. They want answers so that future deaths can be prevented.
‘It is now almost four years since the Shoreham Airshow disaster killed 11 innocent men.
‘The bereaved families have had to painfully relive the circumstances of their loved one’s death again and again. The families want answers. 
‘The inquest will enable a wider investigation into the deaths that occurred by examining the legal framework or rules relating to the supervision of pilots, flights, aircraft and airshows, as well as the various systems in place – including safety planning – to protect observers of the airshow and those in close proximity to it.
Locals laid flowers on the Old Tollbridge near the A27 at Shoreham after the crash
‘To give the families what they want – which is a thorough, frank investigation into how their loved ones died – the only way forward is a wider investigation into all those things as well.
‘The families will only be satisfied once a thorough investigation has been carried out.’
The Shoreham air crash in 2015 was the deadliest for 63 years, yet stunt pilot deaths and injuries have been a regular feature of shows in England over the past 100 years.
In 1952, 31 people, including pilot John Derry, were killed when a fighter jet crashed during the Farnborough Airshow in Hampshire.
Just three years later, the pilot of a Hawker Hunter was killed during a fly-by at the same venue which was witnessed by Princess Margaret and 4,000 other spectators.
In 1968, six members of the French Air Force were killed in a crash while performing a single engine demonstration at Farnborough.
In September 2007, James Bond stunt pilot Brian Brown was killed when his Hawker Hurricane crashed in a fireball after he failed to pull out of a dive during a mock dogfight at Shoreham. 
Who were the 11 victims of the 2015 Shoreham air disaster?

While in Shoreham, he texted his fiancee Giovanna Chirico telling her to get the children ready so they could take them out for lunch on his return home.
She told him she loved him and his last words to her were, ‘I love you too, forever’.
A motorbike and rugby fan, he was also described as a doting father.
 Tony Brightwell, 53:
Health care manager Mr Brightwell, from Hove, was indulging his twin passions of planes and cycling when tragedy struck.
His fiancee Lara watched him cycle off to watch one of the last Vulcan bomber flights, ‘but he never came home’, she said.
Mr Brightwell gained his private pilot licence at Shoreham, loved food and cooking, and admired Second World War pilots.
Dylan Archer, 42, and Richard Smith, 26:
IT consultant Mr Archer, a father of two who lived in Brighton, and Mr Smith, who lived in Hove, were due to meet up with a third friend to head out for a cycle ride in the South Downs.
