From 28 Weeks Later to A Quiet Place Part 2, these are the best horror sequels of the 21st century.
From genre-defining cult classics released early in the century to bona fide mainstream sensations of recent years, horror has evolved to be a landmark genre of 21st century cinema. The emergence of some of the best horror filmmakers the genre has seen and a more emphatic focus on powerful and meaningful stories has combined with new-age effects to make modern horror not only terrifying, but a meaningful viewing experience.
10 'The Devil’s Rejects' Rob Zombie’s filmography as a whole has achieved a cult status among hardcore horror lovers due to its intense gore and sadistic violence. While it makes for polarizing reception, one film which was at least praised for its filmmaking was The Devil’s Rejects, the follow-up film to his much-maligned black comedy horror film House of 1000 Corpses.
The final Scream movie directed by Wes Craven, it follows Sidney Prescott as she nears the end of her book tour and revisits her hometown, prompting a return of the Ghostface killer. While it lacked the sharp polish of the more recent Scream movies, it did excel as a thrilling slasher flick which brought back the original cast and boasted an appropriately pointed critique on celebrity culture.
6 '28 Weeks Later' 28 Days Later became a surprise smash hit for the genre as an intelligent and subversive, though no less terrifying, dose of zombie horror as it tracked a rage virus running rampant in England. In some ways, 28 Weeks Later presented as a revert back to genre norms, following the American army’s attempts to rebuild the nation only for a second outbreak to occur.
4 'Halloween' Halloween is one of the most iconic titles in horror, as the pioneering slasher movie especially for franchise horror. However, while there have been countless sequels and spin-offs – some even earning cult status among the fan base – there had not been one which could truly honor John Carpenter’s definitive 1978 original until the 2018 legacy sequel.
2 'Doctor Sleep' While horror is back in vogue, another cinematic trend which had emerged throughout the 21st century has been the “legesequel”, follow-up movies made decades after their predecessors hit screens. By far one of the most underrated of those films was Doctor Sleep, a successor to The Shining based on Stephen King’s book and directed by horror master Mike Flanagan.
