Netflix Is Adding Tons Of Great Horror Titles Next Month
Netflix can always be relied upon to provide a new sizeable library of quality horror each month, and July is no exception. Here is what you can expect from the greatest genre.
The main addition is Fear Street, a trilogy of films set across three different time periods. The first, 1994, follows a group of teens who investigate the curse plaguing their Ohio town that results in periodic bouts of mass murder, then the story goes back in time to 1978 where a second group of youngsters attempt to survive, and 1666, where the curse’s origins during a witch hunt are revealed.
Another trio is three of the Underworld flicks revolving around an eternal war between vampires and werewolves: the original, the prequel third installment Rise of the Lycans detailing the conflict’s backstory, and Awakening, the forgettable fourth film where the two species are almost hunted to extinction by humans.
A Classic Horror Story is an Italian entry in the metafictional setup of characters being aware of genre tropes, the film intentionally evoking multiple subgenres such as Giallo, slasher, found footage, cabin in the woods, folk horror, and torture porn, all leading to the mystery behind their suffering.
Kingdom: Ashin of the North is a movie spinoff from South Korean period zombie horror Kingdom, focusing on the mysterious woman encountered at the end of season 2 who keeps a collection of the undead.
