In the spirit of December, here’s an array of thrilling horror flicks scheduled for release, catering to diverse tastes. Among them are some supernatural chills featuring legendary creatures, as well as bone-chilling psychological horrors that resonate with a wider audience. To dive right in, let me share the list of every horror movie slated for release next December 2024.
Nosferatu
Watch It in Theaters on December 25
Vampire horror movies have been quite common over time, yet they often lack careful execution, as demonstrated in the latest adaptation of “Salem’s Lot.” On the other hand, the upcoming supernatural horror film titled “Nosferatu,” written and directed by Robert Eggers, is anticipated to buck the trend and provide a fresh take on these bloodthirsty monsters.
Featuring Emma Corrin, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Bill Skarsgard, and Willem Dafoe, this film unfolds a chilling narrative about a vampire’s obsessive affection for a woman in the 19th century, imbued with a gothic atmosphere. The movie “Nosferatu” is set to premiere on December 25, making it an ideal holiday viewing choice for Christmas.
Get Away
Watch It in Theaters on December 6
Not every holiday is blissful; some can take a sinister turn very rapidly. This appears to be the case in the upcoming horror film titled “Get Away“, written and starring Nick Frost, renowned for his work in films such as Hot Fuzz, Attack the Block, and Truth Seekers. Joining him in this chilling tale are Aisling Bea, Sebastian Croft, and Maisie Ayres. The story unfolds on a seemingly idyllic island, but the holiday of a family takes an unwelcome twist when they discover that the island is home to a serial killer. Will they manage to escape unscathed, given that everyone around them seems suspicious? “Get Away” is set for a theatrical release in the United States on December 6, 2024.
Werewolves
Watch It in Theaters on December 6
This December just keeps getting more exciting as it caters to fans of the supernatural with not one but two horror films focusing on vampires and werewolves! While the classic “Nosferatu” boasts a stellar lineup, the original work “Werewolves” by Matthew Kennedy, under the direction of Steven C. Miller, offers a fresh idea that’s sure to captivate both die-hard horror enthusiasts and those who appreciate the adrenaline rush of zombie movies.
The upcoming movie titled “Werewolves” features Frank Grillo, Katrina Law, Ilfenesh Hadera, and Lou Diamond Philips. This film revolves around an extraordinary event of a supermoon that activates a hidden gene in humans, causing them to transform into werewolves, leading to a devastating apocalypse where countless lives have been lost. A year later, the world finds itself in the same dire situation, but two intelligent scientists are on a mission to halt the genetic mutation. The release date for Werewolves is set for December 6, 2024.
Nightbitch
Watch It in Theaters on December 6
Titled after Rachel Yoder’s 2021 novel, “Nightbitch” could be this month’s strangest film contender. This unique production combines elements of body horror with a heavy dose of dark humor. It first graced the screens at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival and has since received critical acclaim, particularly for Amy Adams’ captivating portrayal and the movie’s poignant message on motherhood, intergenerational trauma, and the pursuit of freedom. As per the official summary, “Nightbitch” tells the story of:
A mother who temporarily put her artistic pursuits on hold to focus on family life, later finds herself embarking on a fresh experience when her nightly habits undergo an extraordinary transformation, and her nurturing abilities unexpectedly manifest as a dog-like creature.
The movie featuring Scoot McNairy, Jessica Harper, Zoe Chao, Mary Holland, and Amy Adams is scheduled for a theater release in the U.S. on December 6, 2024.
