There's a lot of competition for the top spot, but scientists have crowned the scariest movie ever - and it's available to stream on Netflix .
A scientific study ruled 2012’s classic scary movie, Sinister , to be the most bone-chilling of all time - and it's not even Halloween yet. The study of broadband choices determined that there is no movie more spine-tingling than Sinister.
The creator of the study, Daniel Clifford, said: “With more people than ever facing a Halloween at home, our Science of Scare study was designed to help people find the most scientifically scary films ever made , to save them the time of searching through thousands of titles across streaming services like Amazon, Netflix, and Shudder.”
Evidence was taken for the scientific study by measuring the resting heart rates of 50 individuals of varying ages while they watched over 100 hours of scary movies. Sinister is in good company, as Netflix has put together a string of spooky offerings in time for Halloween.
Fans of horror movies will be delighted after Netflix has just released a gory favorite. The streaming giant has added Joko Anwar's Grave Torture to is schedule - and it's not for the faint-hearted.
In the film, 'When a violent act kills her parents, Sita vows to debunk the idea of supernatural torment after death - a fixation that leads her on a dark quest,' writes BloodDisgusting.com .
Telly fans will be getting the popcorn ready as Netflix has brought even more spooky films to fill the void for when Outlander wraps up its current season .
If supernatural romances that span across many different era s are your cup of tea then you'll want to get to grips with A Discovery Of Witches. Based on Deborah Harkness's All Souls trilogy, A Discovery of Witches follows the perfect formula for Outlander fans and is available to stream on Netflix .
The series has a wonderful cast led by Matthew Goode of Leap Year fame and features a fantastic array of witches, vampires, and daemons as they navigate a world of love, power, and ancient feuds. The main characters are Diana Bishop (Teresa Palmer), a reluctant witch and historian, and centuries-old vampire Matthew Clairmont (Matthew Goode) with their incredible love story forming the basis of the series.
The pair travel time and continents as they fight to stay alive and stay together with a plotline that Outlander fans will greatly appreciate. Fans of Outlander's Claire will find themselves warming to Diana who is an equally fierce and independent female lead.
Matthew meanwhile possesses much of Jamie's intense masculinity with the added twist of being a vampire who has a ferocious side which is counteracted by his unbridled love and passion for Diana.
