The Best Feel-Good Guilt-Free Gore-Fest Horror Flicks for Halloween Joy and Rapture

I love all horror films. They’re my blood-soaked happy place. But that isn’t the case for everyone and sometimes they can be a real bummer. You want your Halloween horror flicks free of the existential despair that comes with family tragedies, torture, sexual violence, traumatic scenes of dealing with forgotten child rape (seriously, WTF, Nightmare on Elm Street remake?) and generally NOT FUN cinema? Here’s your list. GET BINGING.

Army of Darkness

You’re Next

A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night

All the Screams, seriously all of them, the last one is so fun
