The greatest month of the year is almost upon us, where normal people embrace the scary movies they might otherwise avoid, and those who live the life year round can let their freak flag fly. AMC’s FearFest block of programming is an annual highlight, and this year is offering up 92 films for your spine-chilling pleasure. Here are a few highlights of the dozens of titles awaiting your viewing.
Recommended VideosFrom Dusk Till Dawn sees a pair of criminal brothers on the run escape to Mexico after forcing a vacationing family to smuggle them over the border, only for them all to become trapped in a bar where vampires feast on the living, with their only hope for survival being to make it to sunrise.
Silver Bullet is an adaptation of Stephen King’s illustrated novella Cycle of the Werewolf, and sees a rural town in Maine (shocker) plagued by a monthly series of murders on each night with a full moon, and only a teenage boy believes it to be anything supernatural and tries to identify the human form of the lycanthrope killer.
Thir13en Ghosts sees a widower move his family to the mansion he inherited from his late uncle, only to discover the building has been transformed into a great machine powered by an assortment of bound spirits, each one eager to vent their anger at their captivity.
Demon Knight features a drifter on the run from a demonic entity hunting him for the mysterious artifact he carries, and holes up in a boarding house where he and the other residents must fight off an army of demons and possessed townspeople to prevent the final victory of the forces of darkness.
And finally, if you’re after some lighter fare, the horror-comedy of Eight Legged Freaks might be up your alley. In this homage to ‘50s B-movie creature features, a small Arizona mining town comes under attack from a swarm of giant arachnids, with the exotic spider collection of a local farmer mutated by a toxic waste spill and the band of local eccentrics populating the town grouping together to try to escape to safety.
