I’ve been slowly watching more horror movies and TV shows having avoided them like the plague for the longest of times. It started with A24 which are mild horrors I would say, less about the jump scares. I finally got round to watching Alien and loved it. So I wondered what other horror movies are worth watching on Disney+. I’ve gathered everything which received at least a 6.5 score on IMDb.
