Now that he's become an unlikely LGBTQ+ icon, it's easy to forget just how terrifying the titular villain is in 2014's The Babadook. This demonic entity haunts a single mother and her aggressively annoying child until both reach the breaking point. Between the children's book that just won't go away and that terrifying phone call, the Babadook has ...
Never let it be said John Kramer doesn't put in the work. This prolific killer doesn't settle for just any old murder weapon; he designs elaborate death traps that push victims to the limits of their endurance and sanity. And unlike so many slasher villains, Jigsaw has a true method to his madness. He wants his victims to appreciate life by fightin...
After a string of increasingly disappointing duds in the '00s, M. Night Shyamalan roared back into top form with 2016's Split. That's thanks in no small part to James McAvoy's terrifying, scenery-chewing performance as Kevin Wendell Crumb, an apparently innocuous zoo employee whose mind is home to 23 other alternate personalities.

He happens to be the Anti-Christ, a fact which most of the adults in his life discover far too late. Even as a young boy, Damien was sending his enemies plummeting to their deaths and...
The Creeper more than lives up to his name in the Jeepers Creepers series. This villain might look like a man at first glance, but he's actually an ancient demon who appears for 23 days every 23rd spring to feast on human flesh and assemble himself a new body from the various body parts. He also drives a massive truck that has become as much a hall...
The Conjuring series has several demonic entities and ghosts who could easily qualify for this list, but we have to give the nod to Annabelle, the most unsettling movie doll this side of Chucky. Heck, even if Annabelle did nothing in these movies but stare creepily from inside her protective glass case, she'd be the stuff of nightmares. But after s...
Few things are scarier than the prospect of visiting your significant other's family for the first time, but Get Out shows just how horribly wrong that ordeal can go.
