Blumhouse's Compendium of Horror

A New Horror

In the 1980s, 24-hour cable news dominates the threat of new modern terrors; moviegoers embrace iconic slashers like Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees; vampire films see a resurgence.

Relentless Evil

In the 1960s and '70s, horror films reflect the real and intangible change younger Americans demanded; a new generation of auteur horror filmmakers push the envelope with films like "Halloween," "Carrie," "Rosemary's Baby" and "The Exorcist."

Unholy Dreams

Following World War II, Americans' anxieties evolve into fears around unchecked science, nuclear annihilation, and Communism, aka "the Red scare"; horror filmmakers respond with legendary films like "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" and "The Blob."

Atomic Nightmares

In the 1930s, iconic monsters such as Universal's Dracula and Frankenstein launch a horror renaissance when they are reintroduced to moviegoing audiences, offering a shared escape from real-world anxieties.
