10 Best Blumhouse Horror Movies You've Probably Never Seen

10. The Body

For those who are unaware, Blumhouse has been pumping out movies on Hulu month after month since 2018 under the Into The Dark brand. It's labeled as a 'horror anthology streaming television series" which is more than a mouthful and somewhat untrue.

They can call it a television series all they want but these are movies being released under the guise of a television anthology. Every month there's a new movie that centers around that month's biggest holiday. December movies usually revolve around Christmas, October around Halloween and so on.

The first entry in Hulu's Into The Dark series, The Body follows a professional hitman (Tom Bateman) as he transports a dead body across the city in plain view on Halloween. He ends up with a couple admirers who love his "costume" and convince him to come to a party with them, body in tow. It's a horror trope that gets stretched the length of the movie, but it never gets stale and it never runs its course. It just works perfectly.

While The Body may not be a scary movie, it has laughs and never takes itself too seriously. It has charm, and the atmosphere of Halloween in the city is something that cannot be mistaken. Tom Bateman does an underrated job portraying the arrogant and cocky hitman, making you both uncomfortable as you laugh at the same time.

It's not a horror masterpiece, but it is a fun and enjoyable modern day slasher. The acting is strong and the story never gets boring. It's the perfect movie for when you need a laid back horror.
