5 New Horror Movies of 2024 Got a Perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes Already

Speaking of the horror genre in the film industry, 2024 is not far behind the previous years, having already managed to deliver a not insignificant number of impressive movies. What's more, five of them have already managed to score a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Let's take a look at what these new releases are and why they have won over the critics.

5. Midnight Peepshow

Release Date (Theaters): August 26, 2022

Release Date (Streaming): February 13, 2024

Genre: Horror, Anthology

Okay, so technically this isn't exactly a 2024 movie, as horror aficionados saw it back on October 18, 2022, when it screened at the FrightFest, but a wider audience only recently became aware of the film with its addition to streaming services.

Midnight Peepshow is a British indie horror anthology that hit our small screens right before Valentine's Day — a perfect time to get acquainted with eros in the horror genre, as the new movie is loaded with sex, sin and gore. As the title suggests, each story in the anthology follows different, unrelated people who are one day brought by fate to the doors of a mysterious peep show that can reveal the deepest secrets, fears and desires of its patrons.

4. Summoners

Release Date (Theaters): October 18, 2022

Release Date (Streaming): February 13, 2024

Genre: Horror, Suspense

Summoners follows a young woman named Jessica, played by co-writer Christine Nyland, who has returned to her hometown. Fate reunites her with a childhood friend with whom she once practiced a light form of witchcraft. Only there is something she hasn't told Jess, and years later the protagonist is forced to turn to witchcraft again.

You shouldn't expect maximalist expression from Summoners: the movie is simple enough and doesn't emphasize gore, screamers, or even visual effects. Yet it is an uncanny psychological and supernatural drama that explores the nature of the human condition.

3. Double Blind

Release Date (Theaters): February 9, 2024

Release Date (Streaming): February 13, 2024

Genre: Horror, Thriller, Sci-Fi

The test subjects on whom a new drug was being tested suffer a terrible side effect — everyone who takes the drug dies as soon as they fall asleep. Naturally, this leads to chaos, panic, and mass psychosis as people try to figure out how to leave the isolated facility and stay awake.

The movie follows all the canons of classic internet creepypastas, offering an original concept and terrifying claustrophobic suspense.

2. T-Blockers

Release Date (Streaming): March 5, 2024

Genre: Horror, Sci-Fi

Queer folks have been involved in horror fiction almost since the genre's inception, so it's hard to deny the many implications embedded in horror narratives that deal with issues like identity, body dysmorphia, gender oppression, and so on. But that doesn't mean such stories are just solid sermons and can't be fun.

T-Blockers is a fast-paced and gory low-budget film that is an ode to splatterpunk movies combined with themes of oppression, a sense of community, and, of course, some pretty savage aliens!

1. Late Night with the Devil

Release Date (Theaters): March 22, 2024

Genre: Horror, Found Footage

Finally, with a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, one of the most eagerly awaited horror movies that film critics have already seen. The plot follows the fictional 1970s late-night talk show. During one of the Halloween episodes, a parapsychologist came on the show with a teenage girl who had survived a mass suicide in a Satanic cult.

As reviewers noted, the film was both scary and satirical, playing on the mass hysteria of the supernatural possessions in the 20th century, but also criticizing the media's pursuit of hype.
