31 Horror Movies You Must Watch This October 2022

18. Run Sweetheart Run

Hellraiser Pinhead

Finally hitting streaming almost three years after its Sundance debut, Run Sweetheart Run is a horror-thriller in which a single mother, Cherie (Ella Balinska), returns to the dating scene for a blind date with the handsome, charming Ethan (Pilou Asbæk).

However, before long things turn sour as Ethan's true, violent colours are revealed, and Cherie finds herself desperately trying to escape his clutches and make it home alive.

Don't be turned off by the fact that Shana Feste's film has sat on the shelf for so long - Amazon acquired it back in May 2020 - because early festival reviews have lauded it as a riveting, feminist cat-and-mouse thriller topped by a stellar performance from rising star Ella Balinska.

Run Sweetheart Run releases on Amazon Prime Video on October 28.
