10 More Great Teen Horror Movies (No One Ever Talks About)

Musical horror? Sign us up right away! Following a young singer targeted by a killer at a musical theater camp, Stage Fright takes the crazy idea of turning Friday the 13th into a musical and runs with it, but the end result is a wickedly fun time. This is a project clearly made by people passionate about musical theatre and slasher offerings, and that passion shows all throughout the runtime.

While it may not be for everyone, Stage Fright represents a uniqueness not often seen in teen horror movies (or even just horror movies in general), and it’s this uniqueness that makes it worth your time. It’s a wonder why this feature hasn’t found a cult following yet because it is every bit deserving of one.

This 2014 film - not to be confused with the 1987 slasher of the same name - is a joyous romp filled with clever tunes and plenty of gore. There’s so much fun to be had here and the screenplay doesn’t hold back with its campiness, fully embracing its silly nature. If you love both musicals and slashers, Stage Fright should be right up your alley and you’ll want to rewatch it over and over again.
