She happens upon a ouija board during a solar eclipse and decides to mess about with it with her friends. Set in early 90s Madrid, it relates the tale of its titular character, played by Sandra Escacena in her on-screen debut, who has to raise her younger siblings as her mother is always working and her father has died. ‘Veronica’ has gotten much praise for its scare factor, even being deemed ‘the scariest horror film ever’ by one critic.

If you feel like a double bill from the director, 'Midsommar' is also on Netflix now.

Not only a brilliant horror but just a brilliant movie in and of itself. Written as well as directed by Peele, 'Us' inspired nationwide discussions as to its many layers and meanings. The beach vacation turns horrific when a family of doppelgängers begins to terrorise them. In case you're unfamiliar, 'Us' follows a wife and mother-of-two (Lupita Nyong'o) on holiday with her family in Santa Cruz. It's kind of extraordinary to think that 'Us' is only Jordan Peele's second feature after the groundbreaking horror 'Get Out'. Starring Ethan Hawke - who also is the lead is another of our recommendations, 'The Purge' - it portrays a true-crime who discovers a box of home movies depicting grisly murders in the attic of his new house. One of its more successful series are the 'Insidious' films and another is 'Sinister'. Blumhouse have developed quite a rep for producing low budget horrors with high returns.
