Ranking What Was Really The Best Horror Movie Every Year 1990-2021
2. 2020: The Invisible Man
The Invisible Man gives H.G. Wells' classic novel a modern revamp, casting Elisabeth Moss as a woman stalked and terrorised by an unseen threat she believes to be her abusive - and apparently deceased - ex-boyfriend.
At once a shockingly bleak tale of the unknown but also a striking assessment of gaslighting and trauma in the MeToo era, Leigh Whannell uses Wells' source material to make his film both painfully relevant and unique in its disturbances.
Much like Get Out, The Invisible Man proves the real world is scarier than anything fictional, and the results are unforgettable.
