31 Horror Movies You Must Watch This October 2022

3. Sissy

Hellraiser Pinhead
Dog Park Pictures

Horror films about the perils of social media feel a dime-a-dozen these days, yet few are as deftly crafted as Sissy, in which social media personality Cecilia (Aisha Dee) is invited on an old friend's bachelorette party and comes face-to-face with a childhood tormentor.

Hannah Barlow and Kane Senes' film dials into the destructive power of being permanently tethered to your phone in the modern age, brought fully to life by a rich performance from lead actress Aisha Dee.

Throw in some terrific gore and you've got all the ingredients for a horror that's got something to say but never at the expense of the grisly genre elements everyone wants to see.

Sissy is out now on Shudder.
