10 Best Horror Movies Of 2024 (So Far)

1. Late Night With The Devil

And finally, the most buzzed-about horror film of 2024 to date is also the best, as Late Night with the Devil is a rarest of horrors to live up to all the foaming festival hype. 

Clearly inspired by the legendary 1992 horror mockumentary Ghostwatch, Colin and Cameron Cairnes' film perfectly captures the aesthetic of 1970s late night talk shows, while offering a deeply twisted riff on the seemingly played-out found footage subgenre.

David Dastmalchian, who has been killing it in supporting roles in huge movies for years now, finally gets a meaty leading role and absolutely knocks it out of the park as a troubled talk show host who invites an apparently possessed girl (Ingrid Torelli) onto his show.

Though we know the outcome isn't going to be good, the smart writing and excellent ensemble cast ensure this wild ride zips nimbly by inside of a tight 93 minutes.
