From clever slashers to eerie thrillers and a few nostalgic Halloween staples, here are five of the best free movies to stream right now on Plex, Pluto TV, Samsung TV Plus, Tubi, and more this week. 1) Youre Next (Plex) Release date: 2013 Rotten Tomatoes score: 79% Length: 94 minutes Director: Adam Wingard Main cast: Sharni Vinson, Nicholas Tucci, Wendy Glenn, A. J. Bowen, Joe Swanberg, Barbara Crampton, Rob Moran Youre Next might seem like it has a familiar setup, think family gathering gone wrong. But this movie is incredibly smart and sharp, and easily one of the best horror films of the 2010s. It follows the story of a rich family that reunite at their countryside mansion when a group of masked intruders launch a brutal attack. But theres a twist (look away now if you dont like that sort of thing), one of the guests might not be as helpless as they seem. Its created by Adam Wingard and writer Simon Barrett (the duo behind The Guest and V/H/S ), and it blends humor, a bunch of creative kills and a genuinely satisfying twist on the usual home invasion genre. Its very gory, fast-paced and surprisingly funny at times. 2) Let Me In (Kanopy, Plex) Release date: 2010 Rotten Tomatoes score: 89% Length: 116 minutes Director: Matt Reeves Main cast: Alex Brunner, Simon Oakes, Guy East, Tobin Armbrust, Donna Gigliotti, John Nordling, Carl Molinder Its very rare that a remake lives up to the original. But Let Me In is one of the few rare exceptions. Its a haunting reimagining of the hit Swedish film Let The Right One In. It follows the story of a lonely boy who befriends a mysterious young girl and she just so happens to be a vampire. Its directed by Matt Reeves ( The Batman, Cloverfield ) and this newer, US version trades a snowy Stockholm for a small town America instead. But it does manage to maintain the same eerie tenderness at its heart. Its half horror story, half love story with some solid performances from Kodi Smit-McPhee and Chlo Grace Moretz. 3) The Descent (Fawesome, Hoopla, Kanopy, Plex, Prime Video, Samsung TV Plus) Release date: 2006 Rotten Tomatoes score: 87% Length: 100 minutes Director: Neil Marshall Main cast: Shauna Macdonald, Natalie Mendoza, Alex Reid, Saskia Mulder, Nora-Jane Noone, MyAnna Buring Were going to warn you now, if youre even slightly claustrophobic, this movie isnt for you. Well, unless you want it to burrow straight into your nightmares. The Descent follows the story of a group of friends on a caving expedition that goes horribly, horribly wrong. Thats before they discover what else is lurking in the dark with them What makes The Descent such an enduring horror movie nearly 20 years on is how it layers the claustrophobic physical terror with incredible emotional tension. Its not just about the creatures underground (yep, you heard that right, creatures) . But the secrets and grief the women bring with them into the caves with them. Its easily one of the best scary movies of the century. 4) The Addams Family (Pluto TV, Kanopy) Release date: 1991 Rotten Tomatoes score: 68% Length: 99 minutes Director: Barry Sonnenfeld Main cast: Anjelica Huston, Raul Julia, Christopher Lloyd Before the Netflix show Wednesday, the 1991 movie The Addams Family gave us a look at life inside the ultimate gothic household. This delightfully macabre comedy brings Charles Addams famous cartoons to life with style, wit and a truly perfect cast led by Anjelica Huston and Raul Julia as Morticia and Gomez Addams. Its spooky and campy and endlessly quotable. It manages to be both ghoulish and heartwarming at the same time. So whether you grew up with it or youre watching it for the first time, its the perfect family Halloween movie thats more charming than chilling. 5) Scream (Hoopla, Kanopy, Pluto TV) Release date: 1996 Rotten Tomatoes score: 78% Length: 111 minutes Director: Wes Craven Main cast: David Arquette, Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, Matthew Lillard, Rose McGowan, Skeet Ulrich, Drew Barrymore When Scream came out back in the 1990s, it reinvented the slasher movie genre. Directed by Wes Craven, its a horror masterpiece that follows the story of a group of teens who are stalked by a masked killer who knows all the rules of scary movies. Its self aware and funny at times, whilst also being genuinely terrifying. Scream manages to mock lots of horror clichs while delivering some of the best scares of the 90s. With its iconic Ghostface villain, wed say that its still the blueprint for how to do modern horror well nearly 30 years later.
