The 20 Best Horror Movies to Watch this Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day brings chalky candy and big red hearts, and for many it's the perfect excuse to settle in with a movie—whether a cozy romance or something that will sour the mood.

This roundup gathers a wide range of holiday horrors. The Loved Ones mixes dark humor and bloody torture after a prom rejection, The Honeymoon Killers follows a deadly couple who prey on lonely‑hearts ads, and Bride of Chucky teams Tiffany and Chucky for a toxic, slasher‑comedy road trip.

Other picks lean into classic slasher thrills and strange romance: Valentine and My Bloody Valentine deliver gore and nostalgic shocks; Thirst reimagines vampirism as tense and sensual; Ready or Not turns a wedding‑day ritual into a lethal hunt; Only Lovers Left Alive offers a drowsy, swoony look at immortal lovers; Revenge stages a brutal desert chase after betrayal.

Whether you're cuddled up with a partner or flying solo, these films can make your skin crawl—or, perhaps, let romance grow.
