7 Halloween Movies on Hulu That You Can’t Forget

Halloween movies on Hulu are the treat when Halloween is right around the corner, and I got 7 of the best flicks without any tricks.

Hulu Halloween movies are known to be just the right amount of mix between spooky and scary.

For an entire month of  Huluween runs a different movie every night from family-friendly horror movies to hair-raising sinister one which makes your Halloween on Hulu extra special. 

Thus, Hulu is probably the best platform to spend Halloween with. 

You don’t find Huluween fancy enough? Then, you can check out the best thrillers movies to give your heart a rush of blood.  

Without further adieu, let us dive right into the best Halloween movies on Hulu.

Best Horror Movies on Hulu: Babadook

Watch Trailer

Director: Jennifer Kent

Writers: Jennifer Kent

Stars: Essie Davis, Noah Wiseman, Daniel Henshall

The Babadook 2014’s horror/thriller movie on Hulu comes from writer/director Jennifer Kent. Mr. Badadook manifests in the house of Essie Davis’s (Amelia)  family is the central point of this Halloween Hulu Movie. 

The plot of one of the best Halloween movies on Hulu revolves around Amelia’s son Samuels (Noah Wiseman) revealing the truth about the monsters that come out of children’s books.

In this fright-fest of a movie, you can expect to see gore and ghost scares, eerie scenes with some stabbing and so much more. This is a horror-thriller as much as it is psychological. The pain of loss and fear of unreal becoming real is delivered artfully inasmuch as within the budget the movie had. 

As it says in the movie, you can’t get rid of Babadook. Even after you watch the movie, it keeps you haunting your thoughts and imaginations.  The movie is without a doubt a good one. The cinematography and editing are praiseful. Because it avoids all the cheap scares that one would normally see in horror movies. Yet it still succeeds at terrifying the crap out of yourself. 

My impressions of the movie are so intriguingly positive because it is a well-made movie with such a small budget, that it had. However, it does have some technical flaws, which are covered well with excellent acting. 

It definitely is not one of the kids Halloween movies on Hulu, even though one of its protagonists is a boy. An important thing to include is; although it is a ghost horror movie on Hulu, it manages to avoid all the cliches and banalities. 

Best Halloween Movies on Hulu: The Shining

Watch Trailer

Director: Stanley Kubrick

Writers: Stephen King (based upon the novel by), Stanley Kubrick (screenplay by)

Stars: Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd

Based on the book of Stephen Kings and directed by Stanley Kubrick in 1980. The shining takes its place on the best Halloween movies on Hulu as one of the classics of this genre. Jack Nicholson’s Jack Torrance,  a struggling writer with writers’ block is the central point of this Huluween special.

The plot is briefly about this writer who is struggling and decides to take up a job in an isolated hotel in snowy Colorado. There are unseen forces at play when he starts to lose his mind instead of recovering from the writer’s block. 

The shortest description of this movie is : a slow descent into the madness of the main protagonist with exceptional acting.  

The cinematography of the movie is gorgeous and breathtaking, as is most of Kubrick’s movies. It captures the fascination of the viewer from the first scenes. The movie was released bad to some mixed reviews when it came out. Although, the perfection of the movie can only be realized gradually, the more times you watch, the more you get to understand. 

This is the genius of Kubrick, that he plays with your mind and your perception. But does not care about what you think. Yet, your respect for him as a director and producer grows with each time you watch one of a kind Hulu Halloween movies.

The impressions I get from one of the best Halloween movies on Hulu every time I watch are impossible to explain with words. The movie manifests itself like an organic being which keeps getting better and better with every run.

Best Scary Movies on Hulu: Carrie

Watch Trailer

Director: Brian De Palma

Writers: Stephen King (novel), Lawrence D. Cohen (screenplay)

Stars: Sissy Spacek, Piper Laurie, Amy Irving

Carrie is also another one of the best Halloween movies on Hulu that is based on Stephen King’s novel. The original one was directed by Brian De Palma stars actors like, Sissy Spacek, Piper, Laurie, Amy Irving. 

This review is going to be about the 1976 one since the 2013 one is the same and did not need to be there at all. The original one, on the other hand, was a cinematic success even though it did not stay true to the novel. 

When the movie came out back in 1976.  It had received positive reviews because it had a good feel to it and a very relatable one. Also, the film’s shocking ending was a factor in its success.

This is one of those Hulu Halloween movies that builds up slowly and bursts out in one last gigantic scene with blood and gore all around.  It starts more like a drama, slowly moving into the thriller zone. However, you cannot get bored or disengaged from the movie’s narrative is something that a lot of people know about. 

My impression of the movie is just like with every one of the good Halloween movies on Hulu: positive. Carrie excellently utilizes the camera angles and split camera moments, and overall cinematography techniques. It is the story of a teenage girl whom we have either met, befriended, or at least heard about, but with one shocking twist and end to it.  

This is what makes me love this movie.  Sometimes they are so real and natural.  But within a few scenes, they elevate themselves to the level only our imaginations can reside.

Family Halloween Movies on Hulu: A Quiet place

A Quiet Place hulu
Watch Trailer

Director: John Krasinski

Writers: Bryan Woods (screenplay by), Scott Beck (screenplay by)

Stars: Emily Blunt, John Krasinski, Millicent Simmonds

A Quiet Place is delivered to Halloween on Hulu by John Krasinski with the help of writers such as Bryan Woods, Scott Beck. Stars include John Krasinski himself and Emily Blunt. 

In the world of Quiet Place, there are aliens who can’t see but are noise sensitive. Thus, if they hear you, they hunt you, is the common saying in this one of the Halloween movies Hulu. 

As the plot of the movie is about not making a sound, you feel the quality of the sound works, and they are on a perfect level. Only exceeded by the way it looks. The overall cinematic experience is of a kind that no horror movie ever delivered.

Every element of the movie congeals into one artistic blob of mastery, excellent acting, directing, the concept, and the storytelling all being important droplets within the blob. 

Personal impressions of the movie are of course positive. Otherwise, it would not have been here among the best Halloween movies on Hulu. A Quiet Place succeeds at the concept. It succeeds at storytelling and succeeds at pretty much every aspect of filmmaking. 

One of the praiseworthy Hulu Halloween movies that inspired many other movie makers to learn from. Most probably will inspire even more to succeed in the plot and the character development at the same time. Because apart from all the mentioned above, there was this very part of the movie that stood out. It is that it inhibits the goldilocks zone of character development and plot. 

Good Halloween Movies on Hulu 2020: RE-Animator

Re-Animator a halloween movie on Hulu
Watch Trailer

Director: Stuart Gordon

Writers: H.P. Lovecraft (story “Herbert West, Re-Animator”), Dennis Paoli (screenplay)

Stars: Jeffrey Combs, Bruce Abbott, Barbara Crampton

Initially released in 1985 Re-Animator is directed by Stuart Gordan. Jeffrey Combs Plays this scientist Herbert West, while Bruce Abbot and Barbara Crampton play the couple Daniel Cain Megan Halsey. 

A Quiet Place Hulu is a witty thriller, whereas Re-Animator is as stupidly funny as it could get in those times. Re-Animator is based on H.P. Lovecraft’s novel by the same name. Centers around a student scientist who figures out the way to Re-Animate dead people.

One can describe the movie with just two words “weirdest gore-fest”. Which makes this movie unique in this genre of horror-comedy. For the most part, when it can’t deliver on the suspense, it will make up for it with its comedy and strangeness.

Obviously good Halloween movies on Hulu have far better cinematography and superior techniques. However considering this movie is from 1985, and the fact that it still stands as one of the horror classics. Re-Animator is easily one of the best horror Halloween movies on Hulu. 

It also happens to be one of the better Lovecraft’s adaptations in comparison with others. Re-Animator exceeds anything in close proximity to horror/comedy. It is ridiculously funny, with a splatter gorefest spread all around the movie. 

My personal favorite is the head of the resurrected doctor.  That idea alone that you could kill someone and play with his life is both immoral and dangerous to the psychic of a normal person, but one that you can’t help but give a guilty laugh at. 

Huluween Movies: Invasion of The Body Snatchers

The invasion of the body snatchers on hulu
Watch Trailer

Director: Don Siegel

Writers: Daniel Mainwaring (screenplay), Jack Finney (Collier’s magazine serial)

Stars: Kevin McCarthy, Dana Wynter, Larry Gates

This Huluween special comes from a long time ago, from 1956 and is directed by Don Siegal, includes stars like Kevin McCarthy, Dana Wynter. Invasion of the body snatchers focuses on couple Dr.Bennell (Kevin McCarthy) and his girlfriend Becky Driscoll (Dana Wynter), and their friend Jack (King Donovan).

Despite the many complaints of Dr. Bennels patients claiming their loved ones changed: became emotionless. The Doctor finds hard to believe the stories of the people he encounters. Together with his girlfriend Becky and friend Jack, they find out soon enough. 

The horror classic of that time, one of the best Halloween movies on Hulu has also noir-ish style to it, representing those Cold War times. The story of aliens replacing us without our noticing is so creative and unique that it bent the whole half-century of movies to follow in its steps. 

This one is a perfect allegory for that times’ alien paranoia. At the same time a perfect satire of the sci-fi horror genre. 

The magnificent writing and the dialogue are praiseworthy. For they are revealing a little bit more every time you watch it. It stays in your head like a mantra telling you to watch it again and again. Of course, the acting and scene placements and everything else is also perfect.

But if you only listen, “You fools! You are in danger” “Can’t you see? They are after you, after all of us!” 

That must be for horror fans what  “I will be back” is for Terminator fans. 

Horror/Satire Movies on Hulu: The Cabin In The woods

Chris Hemsworth Halloween movie
Watch Trailer

Director: Drew Goddard

Writers: Joss Whedon, Drew Goddard

Stars: Kristen Connolly, Chris Hemsworth, Anna Hutchison

One of the best Halloween movies on Hulu The Cabin in the Woods is written and directed by Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon. The cast includes people like Chris Hemsworth, Kristen Connolly, Anna Hutchison. It is about 5 college students who go on vacation in a remote house in the woods. 

When the students arrive in the remote cabin, they have no idea what awaits them there. For they do all the things that college students should not do in the far isolated forest house.

Although, the movie seems all that similar story of students renting a house in the forest and all that jazz. This movie shocks the audience with that, it is far more than that. It is not that familiar. Well, it actually is. But when you look at it from what it was meant to be. A subtle satire, it becomes disgustingly funny. 

Disgustingly because it is the same old story of people making the exact opposite of what they are supposed to do in their given situations. It is funny because that can only happen in movies of this sort.

My impressions of the movie are very positive, especially the dialogue. It is so real and simple. Although contradictory to what I have just written, you understand why would a character say this or that. It is not per-say very frightening or scary, but it is one heck of an entertaining movie. 

It is hard to get it from the beginning that it is a pastiche parody of the horror movie genre. But you start to get hints as the movie progresses, which makes it one of the best Halloween movies on Hulu.

In Closing This Piece 

Halloween is a special period of the year, regardless of what you like to watch or where. With this extraordinary list of Halloween movies, I hope this read makes it a bit more so. 

Whether you want to watch with your friends or family, the list has something to offer you, something to keep you entertained on Huluween. 

For Huluween is a month full of the best scary and horror movies, a list of which would take a whole lot of time to write.  Notwithstanding, the seven here are the best of the  best. 

Stay tuned for more movie reviews and great content on OnreplayTV.
