Originally created by John Carpenter and met with increasingly mixed reviews across its slew of sequels, the slasher movie series was brought back to life with much acclaim with 2018's Halloween produced by Blumhouse, which acted as a direct sequel to the original movie. Similar to prior sequels, its direct follow-ups were met with mostly mixed-to-negative reviews, with Halloween Ends seemingly ending the franchise with Michael Myers being put through an industrial shredder, effectively killing the villain for good.

However, what’s much less common is the final boy, often a man or teenage boy who fills the same role, fighting back against the story’s adversaries in order to live — here are all the horror movies with a final boy. While there are plenty of final girls and boys of all ages, final girls mostly fall within the same age range of late teens to early adulthood, while final boys seem to get a bit more variety.

The horror genre has been through some great trends and is home to some regrettable fads. However, usually, even the most widely-disliked horror trends provide interesting fare for critics and academics to analyze. For example, the “torture porn” trend that caused so much hand-wringing from moral guardians in the mid-‘00s has since been viewed as a compelling and complicated reaction to the violence of the war on Terror and the normalization of state-sanctioned torture post-9/11.

Even though Christmas is associated with good cheer, merriment, and gift-giving, the holiday has always had a dark side. A few years before 1978’s endlessly influential slasher Halloween, director Bob Clark’s seminal release Black Christmas established many of the elements that would go on to define the sub-genre’s formula in decades to come.

Despite the failure of 2022’s Firestarter remake and the muted critical reception that Netflix’s Mr. Harrigan’s Phone received, Stephen King adaptations are still a major horror trend. 2023 alone will see the release of the long-delayed Children of the Corn remake, the Salem’s Lot remake, and Host director Rob Savage’s adaptation of the short story "The Boogeyman."

Another notable point of contention is when the film kills off Jamie in its first act, which many felt too cruel a fate for the character after everything she went through.

After the mixed results of Jaws 3D in 1983, the Jaws series looked to be over. A few years later though Universal Studios was in financial difficulties and needed a quick hit, fast-tracking Jaws '87 (as it was originally known) for a summer release. The script was hastily put together in five weeks, but it wasn't finished before shooting began. During this time, one of the first ideas mooted for Jaws 4 had a different character as the shark's first kill.

The franchise's creator, James Wan, brought the torture porn genre into mainstream media with his nine-film horror franchise that all began in 2004 with two men chained up in a dirty bathroom. Since then, the film has sparked six sequels, one prequel, and a spinoff called Spiral, released in 2021. The complex, twisting, and often convoluted plot surrounding the Saw franchise brings viewers back over and over for every new film, and Jigsaw is one of the most iconic horror villains in cinematic history right alongside Freddy, Michael, and Jason.

Played eight times by the inimitable Robert Englund and once by Jackie Earle Haley in the long-running A Nightmare on Elm Street horror franchise, what sets Freddy Kruger apart from his baleful brethren is the mordant sense of humor and side-splitting puns he often lobbies at his victims in the moments before their grisly demise.

Pitt is now a respected Oscar-winner, but back in 1989, he was still trying to make a name for himself. Like many future movie stars, he turned to horror, landing one of his earliest roles in a television show hosted by Freddy Kreuger himself.

It is common that they reside in stereotypical constructs such as the deviant seductress or the unhinged women as well as scorned or suffering victims. Oftentimes, they are utilized to create a stronger origin story for female antagonists, but they can lead to harmful misconceptions about women as a whole, especially when they have a vengeful storyline. Here's how horror movies can create strong female villains who don't fall into stereotypes in 2021.

While Ruggero Deodato's Cannibal Holocaust is considered the first of its kind, found footage was popularized by Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez's The Blair Witch Project. Since then, creators in the sub-genre have used it as a means of crafting realistic horrors. Despite the mid-2000s ushering in the era of video chats and webcam conferences, found footage horror continues to have an affinity for '90s technology, and for good reason.

Independent cinema seems to have undergone an upsurge in recent years, with indie horrors such as The Vast of Night and VFW offering a niche palette to audiences. Indie film distributor A24 has established itself as a force to be reckoned with in modern cinema, belting out a string of critically-acclaimed titles such as Moonlight and Uncut Gems. However, it is A24’s horror entries that have made a tangible mark on popular consciousness, with films such as Hereditary and Midsommar reaching cult status, while changing the very face of horror.

After spending years caring for his mother, David (Brian Landis Folkins) turns to a videotape dating service to find love, but he unexpectedly makes a pre-recorded friend. With such a complex and nuanced take on loneliness and dating, Rent-A-Pal's ending leaves some of its scenes, circumstances, and even its conclusion unexplained.

Every decade has its share of horror highlights, beginning way back in the silent era of the 1920s with chillers like Noseratu or The Phantom of the Opera and carrying through to the classic Universal monster movies of the '30s and '40s.

It's no wonder that Clive Barker disowned the final product considering its cheapness and especially goofy creature costume, as the horror writer, who is something of a legend in the community, felt the film ruined his more satirical and unsettling vision.

The werewolf is a classic monster that has origins in the very early years of Universal Pictures, which was founded in 1912. In fact, the first werewolf movie was released in 1913 when the company was under the name Universal Film Manufacturing Company, and was simply titled The Werewolf. It's typical for monsters and creatures with deep roots in horror history to have longstanding popularity in the genre, but the werewolf tends to be the least popular in recent years.

Recently acquired by IFC Midnight, it's set to release on February 26, 2021, just in time for the Jewish commemorative celebration known as Purim. Due to the fact that the movie is heavily influenced by Orthodox Jewish practices, its use of the dybbuk box makes perfect sense in comparison to uses of it in other horror movies.

Others are far less commonly used, which makes them more surprising. The choice to kill off everyone in a horror movie isn't as common of an ending, but tends to be utilized when a bleak, shocking finish is necessary.

With up and coming talent such as director Brandon Cronenberg living up to his father's legacy and Misha Green's impeccable depiction of metamorphosis in its most gruesome way, this lesser known, underrated sub-genre has been slowly re-emerging and gaining recognition in unexpected places. It has been one of the greatest years for the body horror sub-genre, despite the visceral reactions it often evokes in its audiences. Body horror sometimes gets a bad reputation because it is known for being gory, whether it's through approaching phobias by tapping into exploitation movie tropes or psychologically disturbing depictions of the human body, sexuality, gender, disease, or sex acts.

As an unknown driver flashes their high beams at her, she suspects he is the one trying to hurt her, but the real danger is much closer.

Every film genre has its own set of conventions that differentiate it from the rest. Romantic comedies are known for their typical wacky misunderstandings and the main character's climactic declaration of love, while superhero movies almost never miss the game-changing McGuffin that helps the hero save the day. Accordingly, horror movies have unmistakable tropes such as the final girl, the haunted house, and the jump scare. Tropes aren't inherently detrimental. Quite the opposite—they're useful tools that make movies feel more familiar. The real problem comes when they're either overused or poorly executed.
