Horror Movie Blind Descriptions

Horror Movie
Blind Descriptions

If you’re looking for a horror movie this Halloween, don’t settle for judging a movie by its cover. Instead try a Horror Movie Blind! This intriguing synopsis, as well as a target audience and a content warning, may give you a new Halloween favorite you might not have watched otherwise! Please note that I like these movies, but you might not. Gotta take your chances, folks!

Note: Although the ‘More’ link will take you to Amazon to rent the movie, many of these movies are available on different streaming services. Before you rent, see if Hulu, Netflix, or Prime has the movie free to watch. A couple of them can probably even be found on YouTube.
