It’s time for another preview, and below, we’ll take a look at Netflix’s upcoming roster of horror movies currently announced with them either in development, pre-production, or awaiting release for 2024 or beyond.

Horror is a genre you could very easily argue Netflix hasn’t given the love it deserves with a relatively weak lineup in years prior. While what’s set to come isn’t quite as impressive as some of its studio rivals who are sitting on decades of beloved IP, there are still some great new titles to look forward to.

This is one of multiple genre previews we’ve published to kickstart 2024. Other recent articles we published include a big look at the new fantasy series on the way, all the new sci-fi movies, and sports docs.

  • My Wife and I Bought a Ranch… – This was announced back in 2020 and nothing has come out since. 21 Laps Entertainment was due to produce with Harrison Query working on the screenplay based on a short story by Matt Query.
  • The Inheritance – This movie was scrapped by Netflix. It was written by Joe Russo and Chris LaMont and would’ve starred Bob Gunton and Peyton List.
  • The Hills Have Eyes for You– Eli Craig was supposed to direct this horror movie first announced in June 2020 but the project has gone quiet since.
  • The Unsound – This was one of the many movies announced to be in development from Netflix’s overall deal with Boom! Studios with David F. Sandberg set to direct. All has gone quiet since 2019.
