Horror movies on HBO Max to watch today

The Satanic Rites of Dracula

Let’s kick things off with an older movie from the 1970’s. Leave it to HBO Max to feature the good classics! The Satanic Rites of Dracula was released in the year 1973 and it’s a vampire movie that follows a thirsty vampire living in London with plans of developing a plague to destroy all life on Earth. The movie stars Christopher Lee, Peter Cushing, Michael Coles, Joanna Lumley, and others.

Hollow Man

Moving now to a movie that isn’t as old as The Satanic Rites of Dracula, but still a couple of decades old, is Hollow Man (2000). The movie sort of reminds me of The Invisible Man (streaming on Prime Video), but it’s not quite the same. It stars Kevin Bacon, Elisabeth Shue, Josh Brolin, Kim Dickens, and others.

It

I don’t have you tell you much about It, it’s one of the most popular horror franchises and they are streaming on HBO Max (It and It: Chapter Two)! If you missed the revival of the classic, don’t miss it on the platform. It’s a long one, but worth it.

The Conjuring

Speaking of classics, The Conjuring is a personal favorite! I love the entire series, including the spin-offs, but nothing beats the 2013 original. Based on true events, The Conjuring follows Ed and Lorraine Warren, a married couple who are paranormal investigators on their latest case that turns out more sinister than they could have ever imagined. The Conjuring 2 and other movies from the franchise, including Annabelle, are also streaming on HBO Max.

The Shining

Let’s revisit another classic. The Shining is from 1980 and a true thrill! The silence, the mystery, watching Jack slowly go insane, it’s a ride! The movie stars Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd, and others.

The Empty Man

Finally, we’re switching things up here with the 2020 film, The Empty Man. The movie follows the search for a missing girl who shocks the town when the kidnapping turns supernatural. The Empty Man stars James Badg Dale, Sasha Frolova, Marin Ireland, and Robert Aramayo.
