20 New Horror Movies You MUST Watch This Halloween 2023

12. Slotherhouse

Look, it's a movie about a killer sloth hunting down a fleet of sorority girls. What more do you really need to know?

By his own admission, screenwriter Bradley Fowler came up with the premise for the hilariously-monikered Slotherhouse while actively trying to think up the "dumbest idea" he could for a movie.

It's far from the smartest or most nuanced horror you'll see this Halloween, but Matthew Goodhue's film knows exactly what it is and delivers precisely what it advertises.

This is a goofy-dumb time that offers up a dementedly absurd spin on the typical sorority slasher formula, while making the absolute most of its terrifically adorable antagonist. And at just 93 minutes long, it knows the virtue of brevity.

Slotherhouse is out now on VOD.
