Editor's Choice: Top 10 Horror Films of 2017 Part II - @JonOnAString

2017 was an incredible year for horror fans. Not only did we see several Stephen King adaptations (including the block busting IT), horror has once again found itself with strong representation going into awards season. There is no shortage of supply for Top 10 lists this time of year, but we’ve taken it upon ourselves to avoid all hype and critical reception in our own Best of 2017. Controversial opinions abound in the list below!

Join us as we say goodbye to 2017, in Part II with editor JonOnAString‘s favorite horror and genre films of the year. You can also read KimmiKillZombie‘s Top 10 list HERE. We’ve a few surprises up our sleeves with added underdogs, lesser known picks, some surprising omissions – and a few festival finds, including films from; The Overlook Film Festival, Fantasia Festival, Fantastic Fest, and TIFF!

Hear our full thoughts on each of the films below on this week’s episode of the Nightmare on Film Street Podcast. Also well, Kim and Jon keep the conversation going, discussing some of the more controversial omissions from this year’s list in their Honorable Mentions of 2017, available to our Patreon supporters.

JonOnAString’s Top 10 Films of 2017

  #10 – Super Dark Times

Director: Kevin Phillips Writer: Ben Collins, Luke Piotrowski Cast: Owen Campbell, Charlie Tahan, Elizabeth Cappuccino

Plot: Teenagers Zach and Josh have been best friends their whole lives, but when a gruesome accident leads to a cover-up, the secret drives a wedge between them and propels them down a rabbit hole of escalating paranoia and violence.

#9 Le Manoir

Director: Tony T. Datis Writer: Bernardo Barilli, Dominique Gauriaud, Marc Jarousseau, Jurij Prette Cast: Marc Jarousseau, Nathalie Odzierejko, Lud

Plot: A band of students comes to celebrate the New Year in an old manor house isolated from everything. But soon after their arrival, strange events disrupt the atmosphere, before the party turns squarely to the nightmare.

  #8 – Get Out

Director: Jordan Peele Writer: Jordan Peele Cast: Daniel Kaluuya, Allison Williams, Bradley Whitford

Plot: It’s time for a young African-American to meet with his white girlfriend’s parents for a weekend in their secluded estate in the woods, but before long, the friendly and polite ambiance will give way to a nightmare.

  #7 – November

Director: Rainer Sarnet Writer: Andrus Kivirähk, Rainer Sarnet Cast: Rea Lest, Jörgen Liik, Arvo Kukumägi

Plot: Set in a pagan Estonian village where werewolves, the plague, and spirits roam. The villagers’ main problem is how to survive the cold, dark winter. And, to that aim, nothing is taboo. People steal from each other, from their German manor lords, and from spirits, the devil, and Christ. To guard their souls, they’ll give them away to thieving creatures made of wood and metal called kratts, who help their masters by stealing more. The pragmatic farmers are faced with a question: is the life that they’ve won through so much toil worth anything, if it lacks a soul?

  #6 – The Devil’s Candy

Director: Sean Byrne Writer: Sean Byrne Cast: Ethan Embry, Shiri Appleby, Pruitt Taylor Vince

Plot: A struggling painter is possessed by satanic forces after he and his young family move into their dream home in rural Texas, in this creepy haunted-house tale.

Director: Ryan Prows Writer: Tim Cairo, Jake Gibson, Shaye Ogbonna, Ryan Prows, Maxwell Michael Towson Cast: Nicki Micheaux, Ricardo Adam Zarate, Jon Oswald

Plot: The sordid lives of an addict, an ex-con, and a luchador collide when an organ harvesting caper goes very, very wrong.

Director: Ben Young Writer: Ben Young Cast: Emma Booth, Ashleigh Cummings, Stephen Curry

Plot: You only think you know this story. In 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer—the most notorious serial killer since Jack the Ripper—seared himself into the American consciousness. To the public, Dahmer was a monster who committed unthinkable atrocities.

Le Manoir (Fantasia, 2017) - by Paul Cardullo - Gruesome Magazine

Datis and features Marc Jarousseau, Nathalie Odzierejko, and Ludovik Day. Paul discusses the pacing and humor of the film explaining how the film grows on you as the humor - which is often lost in translation - improves during its bloody third act.
