1. The Autopsy Of Jane Doe

One of the best horror movies in recent years, the premise of this one is simple. A father and son mortician team are handed a body by the authorities, with the goal of coming to a conclusion as to how she wound up buried at a crime scene with an almost perfect, unblemished appearance. But - because there's always a but - the further they work on The Autopsy of Jane Doe, the more that strange, horrific events begin to unfold in their basement laboratory, and it seems the body on their table and terrifying paranormality are innately linked.

The pacing of this one is perfect, giving just enough time for us to invest in the few characters on screen before plunging us into a disastrous murder mystery. Never revealing too much on screen and never relenting once the frights begin, The Autopsy of Jane Doe is a fine example of nuanced horror filmmaking that makes for perfect Halloween watching.

Locking your doors won't always save you from what hunts on the other side.
