12 Horror Films That Will Scare You Senseless In 2020

11. Malignant

Mark 2020 down as the year that James Wan makes what will undoubtedly be a triumphantly terifyiing return to the genre that put him on the map.

This statement is being made with pretty much zero knowledge of what his new, top secret project is all about, mind. But come on, this is the man that splattered us through the noughties with Saw, Dead Silence (an underrated oddity - check it out), Insideous and then, in his best effort to date, The Conjuring. So this one has to be great, right?

The scraps of plot details we do know indicate this is set to be based on Malignant Man, a comic series penned by Wan, which centres on a cancer patient given a new lease of life when he realises his tumour is alien parasite. Chuck in a war against a mysterious army lurking within society and we look set to have a bonkers, scary movie coming our way.
