With an average IMDb score of 6.2 from over 14 horror movies released in 1996 you could say it was actually a pretty good year for horror movies. Sure there were some duds (The Dentist, Head of the Family), but we also got some real gems like From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) and Scream (1996) to name just a few. As horror fans we've come to expect a wide ranging degree of quality from our vice but in 1996 we did pretty good.So grab some snacks and a drink (and maybe something to hide behind) and check out reviews, ratings and trailers for the 1996 - Top 20 Horror Movies ranked by Metacritic.
