10 Most Terrifying Horror Movies Released In 2021 So Far
9. Lucky
Think Happy Death Day but reversed and with a touch more horror. That's the most basic description of Natasha Kermani's Lucky, which is now available globally on Shudder. As is often the case, though, there is obviously a little bit more than that going on underneath the surface.
Headlined by modern-day horror fave Brea Grant, Lucky focuses on self-help author May and the mysterious masked man who stalks her every single night. For Grant's May, even when she kills this strange figure, he still turns up again the following night to send chills down the spine in a continuous cycle of torment.
The overarching message of Lucky is one of the abuse both physical and mental that women experience at the hands of men. And at its core, with the film very much on her back, Brea Grant - who also wrote the movie - is the perfect choice to drive the picture, putting in a performance that is powerful, poignant and packs an almighty punch.
It may slip under the radar for some, but Lucky is a film that you need to make sure is on your to-watch list sooner rather than later.
