I ended up really enjoying Alien Romulus. Some magnificent zero G scenes, truly awesome visuals, and even a cinematic 'moment' or two. The characters were relatable.

Movies I loved not on her list: You'll Never Find Me, Violett, Love Lies Bleeding

What is a mini me? Your kid or something?

I loved Longlegs! I highly recommend Blackcoats Daughter

Thank you for your excelent list👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Oddity was my personal favourite of the year, such a clever and well written story with a truly haunting atmosphere. Great list, look forward to seeing what 2025 brings.

Hey thanks for making the video. Who knew so many horror films were made in a year? (Well, I guess YOU knew). One thing: I did find there were more spoilers in your video than I would have expected. I like to go into films knowing very little, so for instance giving away the progression of a film (like science based, then science goes out the window, or small spiders to medium to crazy big) spoils things for me. Not everyone is like me, but something to think about.

Lowlifes is good.

I completely get you in Cuckoo, i just didn't think it was that good or special

Longlegs is my absolute best film of not only the year but the last 5 years at least. So good! and far more interesting to watch than any other movies this year.

ragebait ahh ranking

Time Cut is horrible

Smile 2 is much better than Smile

Yes, i guess i am not the only one anymore who enjoyed Afraid :D Great ratings and i love Jaws is behind you, my favorite movie. :D

I'm surprised you were taken in by the "Longlegs" hype - since you operate in social media, a world of seeking clicks and relevance and hyperbolic, over-emotionalized fakery to get them, I would think you would know that hype is almost always way overblown by design. I was totally looking forward to Longlegs apart from the hype due to his masterpiece film "The Blackcoat's Daughter" being my favorite film of 2017, and I STILL never expected Longlegs to be as scary or amazing as the media frenzy would have you believe. In any case, I agree that "Longlegs" is nonetheless the best horror genre offering of the year right up there with "Abigail" - two films that are different in every way but both just amazing viewing experiences. As for "Oddity," it was admittedly very good (and very well shot) film, but it just didn't "go there" enough with the payoff and I felt a bit let down by the ending. I actually prefer the filmmaker's earlier film "Caveat," mostly because it has one of the best and creepiest jump scares in recent memory - kind of like an Exorcist III moment. Anyway, overall a nice job with the list. If you haven't seen "The Blackcoat's Daughter," then DEFINITELY make that your next watch. I think it is a better film than "Longlegs" and more rewatchable when it comes right down to it.

Longelegs gang gang

I get Ghostbusters. Loved it. It was just outside of my top films this year.

'Oddity' at #2! Yes! Maika Monroe makes the best movies!! Every film is a killer.

I really enjoyed your list, I appreciate that you consider how enjoyable something was and not just how objectively well made something is. Sometimes people just want to be entertained, not everything needs to have a deeper meaning or commentary on society. I thing Longlegs was my favourite as well, Oddity hasn't been released in my country which is a shame because it sounds like my kind of horror 😅 I wouldn't call Longlegs super scary, but it really got under my skin and made me lose sleep that night, which usually never happens. The First Omen was another highlight for me, I'm not a huge fan of the original so it was such a positive surprise!

Nosferatu, Alien: Romulus, Longlegs, Abigail, Cuckoo, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, and Strange Darling were my fav horror films this year.

reflection of ring light aside, u looked really good here 😊

Hey lovely another cracking video and I'm looking forward to watching your vids in 2025 I hope you have a fabulous NYE be safe lovely

I now have a longer watch list 😂

Abigail is my favourite film this year. I watched it with my kids and they loved it.

Each to their own we clearly have very different tastes but Heretic?? Terrible movie. QP series? Also terrible. Oddity okish, certainly not remotely scary. Long legs. Good but there are much better movies

The Substance was great until the last 30 minutes. Not to take away from the fantastic performances but most reviews seem to gloss over how awful the ending is.

Completely agree with you on Matthew Goode not being domineering and menacing enough 😅 coming from someone who isn’t familiar with his previous roles

ranking sharks under paris > smile 2 is crazy

Great recap and video! I've yet to see Afraid and despite mass criticism, I'm still curious to watch. I believe I Saw The TV Glow was the worst movie of 2024 in general and like Cuckoo, I just didn't get it. It took itself way too seriously. My favorite 2024 horror release is Smile 2, I had the most fun movie theater experience, nearly screaming and jumping out of my seat multiple times 😂

I'm really curious to what if there's a life experience or gender line with the fearfullness of Nic Cage in Longlegs. I've heard a few people say how scary and unnerving he was in the movie and litterally when he showed up on camera both me and my wife burst out laughing. Neither of us can figure out what's scary about it other than he's acting like a crazy person. Both of us grew up around people with schizophrenia so people tlaking to no one or acting crazy ins't abnormal to us. So who knows. Did not find it scary in the slightest but I'm glad some people got that out of it.

I wonder where Nosferatu would fall. I loved the remake. Great rankings.

Great episode! You NEED to watch 30 days of night

I literally started learning french because of under paris. Oh putain ! Il ya beaucoup de requins dans la seine à Paris ! Pourquoi sont ils ici !? Ils veulent manger tous les parisiens ! Et que fait le gouvernement !? Rien ! Absolutement rien ! Pas de requins en france !

Love the video I been watching your channel ta few months love ur content I'm autistic but I'm a huge horror guy and my top 5 of the year is 5. the substance 4. Lisa Frankenstein 3.smile 2 2. Abigai 1. terrifire 3

Sorry for spamming you. Hopefully it helps your engagement lol. My top 5 are going up on my channel in January. I'm trying to cram as many more 2024 films in as possible before the end, lol.

Great list, thanks!

**police siren goes by** SARAH: "The f-" 😂

My biggest complaint with In A Violent Nature was how terribly it was filmed/framed. I wasn't expecting immense gore, but if it's supposed to be "the killer's point of view" why was everything slightly off frame or far away or completely off camera in general!? I HATED it. Oh, I "got it," pretentious film bros. The premise is a great one. And it was executed *terribly* Absolute garbage.

top 5 for me: The Substance Nosferatu Alien Romulus Smile 2 Longlegs

No Exhuma, no I Saw the TV Glow, no Dead Talents Society?3 of the best horror of 2024.

Happy New Year to you and your family, Sarah! I love you and your channel, can't wait for the 2025 content🖤💜🖤

Haha I was with you until you put Smile 2 below Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Trap, and The Watchers. 😂 Just my preferences vs yours, obviously. BB was absolutely terrible IMO. I hated that I paid money for it. Again, just me. Under Paris though... 😶

M. Night did only make Trap to promote his daughter's music career, which i understood that, but it was awful

I have bought Immaculate First Omen Abigail and Longlegs on dvd. All high quality imo. Nice to see you rank Abigail so high. I have not yet seen Oddity or Heretic but they look good too!!! Hopefully Nosferatu will not disappoint. Keep up the good work in 2025 Sarah. Dave

Longlegs, I don't get it. Mr. Cage ruined the movie. He looked and acted like a clown. Go be Art the clown.

I cannot believe more channels aren’t talking about Blink Twice. I watched it the other day and thought it was so good! 30 days of night is one of my favorites you have to watch it ! 😅

David Howard Thornton as a murderous Mickey mouse? I'm all in!

i love stream for what it was the killers were funny and fun nosferatu is my favorite of the whole year

I started following you because I love horror movies and wanted to practice my English, but I'm staying because of your excellent analysis and insights into these films. Happy New Year!🎉 Greetings from Mexico!

I saw most of those. Thankfully I'm a horror fan that's not too hard to please so did like everything. I wish you a happy and prosperous New Year 2025 Sarah! 🎆
