    Directed by Daniel Stamm

    It may be called The Last Exorcism, but this 2010 horror film is far from the last exorcism-related movie, because the formula such films follow is just too reliable. It can't even be called the last of the movies called The Last Exorcism either, seeing as in 2013, it got a sequel with the somewhat amusing title of The Last Exorcism Part II. It's a solid enough exorcism-themed movie for those who like that kind of thing, and does manage to stand out through also being a found footage horror m...

    Directed by Kōji Shiraishi

    Kōji Shiraishi is a Japanese director who specializes in making horror movies, and he combined horror with crime to great effect in the underrated and very unsettling A Record of Sweet Murder. 2005's Noroi: The Curse is perhaps his most famous movie, though, and something of a modern J-horror classic(known among the best demon movies ever made). It's about a mysterious demon called the "kagutaba," and follows a documentary filmmaker as he sets out to explore numerous cases linked to this alle...

    Though South Korean horror films might not be as popular as J-horror, it's certainly become more recognized in recent years. 2021's The Mediumhalf-qualifies, because it was a Thai and South Korean co-production, but the film is set in Thailand and features Thai dialogue. It's another possession movie that incorporates a mockumentary/found footage style (they don't all do this, by the way!), following a family that has one member of every generation inherit shaman powers through a spirit that...

    Directed by Gregory Hoblit

    Fallen is the rare movie about possession that isn't fully definable as one that belongs to the horror genre, with it being more of a particularly dark crime/thriller. It follows a homicide detective who notices a series of killings similar to those committed by a notorious serial murderer... who was shown being executed at the start of the film. Things take a turn towards the supernatural, but the idea that others might have been possessed by the spirit of a killer isn't played for horror as...

    Directed by Lamberto Bava

    The 1980s housed too many iconic horror movies to count, and that can lead to something with a title as generic as Demons potentially slipping under the radar. The film is similarly simple, but in no way can the execution be called generic, because Demons is a blast to watch, making up for a lack of scares by just being super entertaining. It's an Italian film about various people who get invited to a cinema to watch a strange new horror movie, only for something among them to begin attacking...

    Directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi

    A cult classic that ranks among 1977's best films, House is a loopy and unpredictable movie like no other out there. At its core, it is a haunted house movie about a group of young people who get possessed by some strange force within said house after they go to stay in it, but it's the style and presentation that makes it distinct. House has its own strange logic or lack thereof, and ends up feeling more like an absurd/surreal comedy with a few light horror elements, rather than something th...

    Directed Karyn Kusama

    While Jennifer's Body wasn't exactly a well-reviewed movie when it first came out, viewers in more recent years have been kinder to it, and its critical reputation has improved dramatically. Maybe there was just an inherent negativity on the part of many towardsMegan Fox, but she turns in a genuinely good performance here as the titular Jennifer. It's set in high school, and follows two friends who find themselves at odds after one of them begins behaving quite strangely, showing signs that s...

    Upping the mayhem found in the first film, and giving everything a decidedly more comedic spin, Evil Dead IIwould have to be one of the greatest horror sequels in history. In a way, it also serves as a semi-remake of the 1981 original, beginning by recapping that first film and then subsequently having a narrative with many similar sequences and story beats. It's as much of a remix as a sequel, and that's one of the things that makes it such a deservedly beloved 1980s comedy/horror movie. Lik...

    Directed by William Peter Blatty

    The third movie in the Exorcist series, The Exorcist III was released 17 years after the iconic original, and 13 years after the less beloved Exorcist II: The Heretic. According to most horror fans, the former is essential and the latter is skippable, but The Exorcist IIImakes for a surprisingly good follow-up. It's notable for being directed by William Peter Blatty, who wrote the novel the original film was based on and also adapted it into a screenplay. It's not a direct sequel, but works w...

    Directed by Scott Derrickson

    Demonic possession movies have proven particularly popular within the last decade or two, and Sinister reflects that, as one of the best-known of the 2010s. It's not a found footage movie, but follows a true-crime novelist who views "found footage" while trying to piece together the details of a grisly crime that occurred in his house. His investigation ends up getting him on the wrong side of a demonic entity, and then he and his family end up getting into serious danger. It's a compelling f...

  5. A list of the most terrifying horror movies involving Demons, Satan, Hell. NOT a list of the best movies, although many are listed. Only the most terrifying. For example, I consider The Omen and Rosemary's Baby great movies, but I find both just creepy and disturbing.
