92 Movies just landed on Pluto TV: Here are the 3 best horror films to watch first
Pluto TV added 92 movies in October, and if you're looking to celebrate spooky season, here are the three horror movies to watch first.
In October, Pluto TV, the free ad-supported streaming service, added 92 new movies to its library, including several horror and thriller titles perfect for kicking off spooky season. Among the newcomers are three standout horror films that are well worth adding to your watchlist: Attack the Block, Shutter Island, and Cloverfield.
Attack the Block (2011) is a British sci-fi comedy-horror that features John Boyega in his breakout role. The film follows a group of young hoodlums, led by Moses (Boyega), who mug a nurse named Sam (Jodie Whittaker) on Guy Fawkes night. When an alien spacecraft crash-lands nearby and aggressive alien creatures attack their block, Moses and his gang decide to fight back and protect their neighborhood.
Unlikely ally Sam joins forces with Moses, turning the tables on the extraterrestrial threat. Attack the Block offers a unique blend of alien invasion satire and found footage-style storytelling, making it an entertaining and thought-provoking watch.
Shutter Island (2010) is a psychological horror thriller directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio. As U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels, DiCaprio investigates the disappearance of a patient at a fortress-like hospital for the criminally insane on a remote island. He soon finds himself embroiled in a web of conspiracies and begins to question his own sanity as a hurricane threatens to cut him off from the outside world.
Shutter Island is renowned for its slow-burn suspense and mind-bending plot twists that will leave you questioning everything you've seen long after the credits roll.
Cloverfield (2008) is a found footage horror film that helped revive the popular genre after The Blair Witch Project. The movie opens with a group of friends filming a going-away party for Rob (Michael Stahl-David) when a massive earthquake hits New York City, followed by a huge explosion. As Rob continues filming, he and his friends witness a gigantic monster tear through the city.
The shaky camerawork and lack of clear views of the creature contribute to the film's eerie realism, making it feel like a collection of recovered archival videos documenting a real monster attack on New York. Cloverfield's unique approach and intense atmosphere make it a must-watch for horror fans.
