All the Horror You Need to Stream in October 2023
Horror fans love two things: on-screen scares and comically detailed streaming guides.
Welcome to Horrorscope, a monthly column keeping horror nerds and initiates up to date on all the horror content coming to and leaving your favorite streaming services. Here’s what to watch in October 2023:
After a brief break in September (blame festival season) the lights are back on here at Horroscope LLC. Personally, I think that the cobwebs add character to the place. The rats I could do without.
October is here! And in this hemisphere at least, the air is crisp and full of the unmistakable scent of rotting leaves. The pumpkins in my compost are finally ready to harvest. And coming across animal bones on my daily walks is more on-theme than ever. This is my Christmas.
It’s also the busiest time of the year as far as horror streaming is concerned. So without further ado, let’s cut to the chase and have a look at the state of things this month. Be sure to peruse the complete list below, calendar in hand, for a full picture of what horror movies are coming and going from your favorite streaming services in October 2023.
Please keep in mind that all dates listed below may not apply to viewers outside the US.

The streaming service champion of the month is The Criterion Channel, who always do incredible work this time of year with their curated collections. We’re truly spoiled for choice this year.
The streaming service dunce of the month is Disney+. While dunking on the House of Mouse usually brings me joy, this go round, my heart is somewhat heavy. Disney+ is bringing more horror content to their service this month than they usually do. And while I want to congratulate them for doing the bare minimum, look at what the others are slinging. Rise to the occasion Disney, ’tis the season.
Horror Streaming Highlights for October 2023
Pick of the Month — When Evil Lurks
Synopsis: Two brothers, Pedro (Ezequiel Rodríguez) and Jimmy (Demián Salomón), make a horrifying discovery in a nearby farmhouse. Something — formerly someone — is rotting; a demonic presence that threatens to infect the surrounding area. Attempting to game the strict rules around the supernatural plague, the brothers relocate the possessed ticking time bomb. Sure enough, their attempts to make the problem go away make things much, much worse.
I’ll be vulnerable, for your benefit: I am not the biggest fan of Terrified, the haunting possession flick that introduced international audiences to Demián Rugna. But the tables have turned with When Evil Lurks, which handily knocked me on my butt and stole my wallet. This is easily the most accomplished resurrection of Euro-splatter films I’ve ever seen. It’s as bleakly apocalyptic as any Fulci film; dropping you into a nightmare and hitting the ground running with no regard for anything so insulting as “an explanation.” It rules, and I’ve already said too much. No child, dog, pregnant woman, or hero is safe.
Available to stream on Shudder on October 27th.
A totally tubular drive-by through ’90s horror courtesy of Criterion
Synopsis: Everyone’s favorite prestige streaming service is griming things up with this collection of must-see horror gems from the 1990s.
After previous collections highlighting the 1970s and the 1980s, The Criterion Channel commits to the bit with this ode to the genre output of the 1990s. The selected films run an impressive gamut from horror comedies (Frankenhooker, Ravenous) to reclaimed masterpieces (The Exorcist III, Demon Knight), to curios that deserve more eyes on them (Dust Devil, Def by Temptation).
The collection includes: Def by Temptation (1990), The Exorcist III (1990), Frankenhooker (1990), Body Parts (1991)*, The Rapture (1991), Dust Devil (1992)*, When a Stranger Calls Back (1993)*, In the Mouth of Madness (1994), The Addiction (1995), Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight (1995)*, and Ravenous (1999). Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992) and Body Snatchers (1993) arrive on the first of November and Event Horizon (1997) hits the service on the first of December.
Available to stream on The Criterion Channel on October 1st.
One of the best Halloween-set horror anthologies of the 21st Century
Synopsis: Not to be confused with the 1986 Satanic Panic rock’n roll horror flick of the same name, this horror omnibus sees a series of connected spooky stories unfold on Halloween night in an unassuming small town.
Michael Dougherty‘s 2007 horror flick is an anomaly in that it is one of the few genre anthologies with a perfect batting average. There are no weak links in this chain link fence. Though, as ever, one segment (which sees Dylan Baker as a creepy child-killing principal who meets a sticky end) is especially crunchy. Full of the gleeful comeuppance that defines the pulpy sub-genre, Trick ‘r Treat is the cinematic equivalent of a fistful of your favorite candy. And it goes down especially easy around All Hallows’ Eve.
Available to stream on MAX on October 1st.
An ultra-gory forgotten Japanese home invasion masterpiece
Synopsis: A housewife (Keiko Takahashi) in a high-rise apartment finds herself a victim of an especially persistent door-to-door salesman, who doesn’t take kindly to having a door slammed in his face.
Newly remastered (and hot off a stint at Fantastic Fest), 1988’s Door has never been screened outside of Japan. Which is a damn shame because it’s one of the most shocking home invasions you’re liable to find. And, thanks to Screambox, “finding” it is going to be a hell of a lot easier.
Directed by Banmei Takahashi under the umbrella of the infamous and short-lived production house Director’s Company, Door features one of the most batshit final twenty minutes of its sub-genre, which careens into Evil Dead territory without a backward glance. If the phrase “slow-burning J-Horror giallo” makes your heart flutter, make sure to check out this incredibly weird, and criminally under-seen genre gem.
Available on Screambox on October 24th.
