Horror Movies Coming To Netflix July 2024, Ranked By Rotten Tomatoes Score

Rotten Tomatoes Score: 25%

Critics Consensus: The Nun boasts strong performances, spooky atmospherics, and a couple decent set-pieces, but its sins include inconsistent logic and narrative slackness.

The first of two Conjuring Universe films on this list, “The Nun” is near the bottom of the barrell when it comes to entries in that ever-growing franchise. The creepy demonic Nun made her first appearance in the excellent, scary sequel “The Conjuring 2,” setting up the path for her own spin-off movie. A prequel, this film heads to Romania in the 1950s. After a nun dies by suicide at a remote monastery, a grizzled priest (Demián Bichir) and a young nun (Taissa Farmiga) are sent to investigate. There, they discover the monastery is cursed the presence of a demonic nun lurking in the shadows. Big on atmosphere but low on actual scares, “The Nun” got a chance at redemption with the much better sequel, “The Nun II.” Unfortunately, Netflix isn’t streaming that one (you can currently find it on Max, though).
