This Halloween, however, it is the less well-known streaming services that offer the truly essential October viewing. Just like Christmas will forever be associated with Hallmark, Halloween is the time for Shudder, the horror-only service which is adding some Hammer Horror classics this year to its already stellar scary selection.
The Criterion Channel is also well worth a subscribe this spooky season. The arthouse and classics service has added nearly 30 classic horror movies from the 1970s, including The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Don’t Look Now and The Wicker Man, plus other great scary movies like Nosferatu, Videodrome and Trog, which features Joan Crawford battling an evil caveman.
