Want the best Horror, Thriller, and Sci-fi movies of 2020? We’ve got you covered. Here’s our list featuring the best releases among those we’ve watched and reviewed this past year. Check out our 2020 list right here!
In 2020, we’ve reviewed more genre movies and series than ever before: A whopping 314 titles!
While we “only” gave out our top rating of 5 stars to six movies in 2020, that’s not to say we didn’t love a lot of movies released this past year. Actually, in 2019 we gave a 5 out of 5 to just five movies, so in that sense 2020 won.
Overall, we just don’t give out many top-ratings but we do love many of the movies we watch and review, so there’s plenty of horror, sci-fi, and thriller movies for our “Best of 2020” list.
Let’s begin this “Best movies of 2020” with our best horror movies of 2020.
