2020 certainly threw a curveball in many studios’ movie release schedules. Many films only released digitally or had their release dates pushed to this year. Now that most studios have a pulse on the state of the industry, we can tell that 2021 will be a much better year for horror releases. From sequels to new indie horror titles, I foresee 2021 being a strong year for horror. Here are 10 movies to be excited for in 2021:
After unearthing a gem that controls an evil monster looking to destroy the Universe, a young girl and her brother use it to make him do their bidding. It isn’t long before PG’s reappearance draws the attention of intergalactic friends and foes from across the cosmos. Before long, a rogues’ gallery of alien combatants converges in small-town suburbia to battle for the fate of the galaxy.
A quiet drifter (Nicholas Cage) is tricked into a janitorial job at the now condemned Wally’s Wonderland. The mundane tasks suddenly become an all-out fight for survival against wave after wave of demonic animatronics. Fists fly, kicks land, titans clash — and only one side will make it out alive.
A young girl, passionate about fashion design, is mysteriously able to enter the 1960s. There she encounters her idol, a dazzling wannabe singer. But 1960s London is not what it seems, and time seems to fall apart with shady consequences.
Following the events at home, the Abbott family now face the terrors of the outside world. Forced to venture into the unknown, they realize the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats lurking beyond the sand path.
This film is the epic next chapter in the cinematic Monsterverse. The fearsome Godzilla and the mighty Kong battle each other -with humanity caught in the balance.
Working in the shadow of an esteemed police veteran (Samuel L. Jackson), brash Detective Ezekiel “Zeke” Banks (Chris Rock) and his rookie partner (Max Minghella) take charge of a grisly investigation into murders that are eerily reminiscent of the city’s gruesome past. Unwittingly entrapped in a deepening mystery, Zeke finds himself at the center of the killer’s morbid game.
The Devil Made Me Do It reveals a chilling story of terror, murder and unknown evil that shocked even experienced real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren (Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga). The film revolves around one of the most sensational cases from their files. It starts with a fight for the soul of a young boy, then takes them beyond anything they’d ever seen before. The case marks the first time in U.S. history that a murder suspect would claim demonic possession as a defense.
When a single mom and her kids arrive in a small town, they begin to discover their connection to the original Ghostbusters and the secret legacy their grandfather left behind.
A “spiritual sequel” to the horror film Candyman (1992) that returns to the now-gentrified Chicago neighborhood where the legend began. A decade after the last of the Cabrini towers were torn down, Anthony and his partner move into a loft in the now gentrified Cabrini. A chance encounter with an old-timer exposes Anthony to the true story behind Candyman. Anxious to use these macabre details in his studio as fresh grist for paintings, he unknowingly opens a door to a complex past that unravels his own sanity and unleashes a terrifying wave of violence.
