10 Best Non-Horror Films To Watch This Halloween 2020
7. What We Do In The Shadows
Vampires are a terrifying abomination of fiction. The thought of the complicated and dangerous predators is enough to keep anyone awake at night afeared of what being caught by one would be like. But this film asks the question how the mundanity of average life would impact a group of the undead.
It is a great angle to venture into. Vampire films have always implied that they live isolated lives, but still seem to have the money and resources to do what they want. This project - created by Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi - is a hilarious exploration of how contemporary problems such as paying rent, clubbing, chores and petty disputes can impact the life of a creature that we've never seen need to worry about such problems before.
The irony of seeing the dead deal with life is present throughout the entire project and makes for an incredibly entertaining film that feels appropriate for Halloween. The TV series based on the project is also essential viewing for anyone who loves comedy and vampires.
