10 Horror Movie Trilogies That Absolutely Kill It

10. Fear Street Trilogy

Netflix's Fear Street trilogy, adapted from R.L. Stine's book series of the same name, delivered a fierce and refreshing homage to the slasher genre with a wickedly witchy twist.

Set within the tragedy-prone town of Shadyside, the plot follows a group of high schoolers who discover that the legends about a witch's curse are more than just stories when they're pursued by killers from the town's grisly past. It's therefore up to them to find a way to break the curse before they become the latest tragedy.

After Part One delivered an entertaining slice of '90s-inspired slasher goodness, the sequel took the action to a summer camp in 1978. Alongside even more gleefully grotesque kills, Part Two's love letter to the genre expanded upon the wider plot in intriguing ways by revealing crucial details about the overarching mystery.

Everything culminated in Part Three, which whisked viewers back to the curse's chilling origins in 1666. Not only did the climactic chapter answer the questions surrounding Shadyside's dark history, but it did so while delivering an unexpectedly emotional punch before drawing the centuries-long tale of tragedy to a satisfying close.

Mixing self-aware fun with a compelling mystery, Fear Street is modern horror done right.
