The horror genre has been dominating the box office in 2025, and with the recent success of "The Conjuring: Last Rites," fans are eager for more thrills and chills. If you enjoyed the latest installment in the "Conjuring" universe, here are some other Hollywood horror films released this year that you should definitely check out.

One standout is "Weapons," directed by Zach Cregger. This mystery horror film follows the bizarre case of seventeen children who vanish from their classroom simultaneously, seemingly abducted by an unseen force. Featuring a cast including Josh Brolin and Julia Garner, "Weapons" has garnered critical acclaim and achieved box office success, grossing $252 million worldwide.

Another film to consider is "Final Destination: Bloodlines". As the latest installment in the "Final Destination" franchise, this movie promises the same terrifying and creative deaths that fans have come to expect. If you enjoy a mix of suspense and gore, "Final Destination: Bloodlines" should be on your list.

For those who appreciate a blend of horror and dark comedy, "The Monkey" is a must-see. Directed by Oz Perkins and produced by James Wan, "The Monkey" is based on a story by Stephen King and stars Theo James as troubled twins. Expect plenty of scares and violence, along with a good dose of laughs.

If you're seeking a more suspenseful and Hitchcockian experience, "Drop" might be the perfect choice. Directed by Christopher Landon, known for "Happy Death Day" and "Freaky," "Drop" stars Meghann Fahy and Brendan Sklenar. The film follows a woman on a first date who starts receiving threatening messages, creating a tense and dread-filled atmosphere.

Beyond these, several other horror films are generating buzz. "Sinners," directed by Ryan Coogler and starring Michael B. Jordan, presents a period-setting horror adventure involving vampires. Additionally, keep an eye out for "The Ritual," starring Al Pacino and Dan Stevens as priests performing exorcisms. Fans of slasher films will want to check out "I Know What You Did Last Summer," a direct sequel to the 1998 film.

Looking ahead, there are even more horror releases to anticipate later in the year. "The Black Phone 2," a sequel to the creepy 2023 chiller, and "Five Nights at Freddy's 2" are both expected to be major draws. Also, an untitled "Conjuring" film is slated for release in September, promising more paranormal investigations.
