Horror Movies and Other Frightening Flicks Streaming on Showtime in October 2020
The Halloween season is here, which means it’s time to grab a bowl of candy corn and binge-watch some scary movies. Right now, there may be no better way to escape the horror-show of a year that is 2020 than by trading real-world terrors for some made-up frights. Fortunately, if you’re in the mood to be scared silly, Showtime has your back. The premium cable network had plenty of frightening flicks available to stream this month, from kid-friendly Halloween movies to horror classics.
Showtime’s ‘spooktacular’ streaming lineup for October 2020
Showtime’s “Halloween Spooktacular” collection is sure to satisfy your spooky streaming needs.
Horror movie buffs can cue up the 1990 remake of the classic zombie film Night of the Living Dead or catch original scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis in the 1980 slasher Prom Night. Also streaming is Roman Polanski’s Rosemary’s Baby, starring Mia Farrow as a young, pregnant wife who discovers her husband (John Cassavetes) has made a horrifying deal with their Satan-worshipping neighbors involving the couple’s unborn child.
Those who enjoy their horror with a tinge of sci-fi will want to watch the 1978 remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, which stars Donald Sutherland and Jeff Goldblum.
You can also indulge in some ‘90s nostalgia by streaming I Know What You Did Last Summer and its two sequels, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer and I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer.
The 2018 Jack Black flick The House With a Clock in Its Walls delivers kid-friendly scares. Older kids will enjoy the 2019 adaptation of the classic kids’ book Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.
Paranormal Activity, The Thing, The Witch, My Bloody Valentine, Re-Animator, and Tales From the Hood are all also streaming on Showtime this month.
