10 Best Horror Movies Starring Doctor Who Actors

3. The Others (2001)

Everybody loves a good old fashioned ghost story and the best ones are those that effortlessly manage to keep us guessing right up until the very end. Which this one does. And for a little while longer after that, actually. Christopher Eccleston (yes, him again!) adds to the mind-boggling mystery in his role as Nicole Kidman's husband whose return from World War II is overshadowed by the fact that his family home has seemingly become haunted by a supernatural force in his absence. Its ominous backdrop intensifies the drama to keep you on the edge of your seat as the mystery behind the ensuing terror reaches its climactic conclusion. A classic horror that strips the genre back to its basics in a story that will take you on a journey beyond the grave and back again. Sooner or later, they will find you.
