7 Fall Movies That Are Perfect For People Who Don’t Like Horrors

Usually, when you think of the horror genre, you think of Freddy Krueger, Jason, Alien, and the rest of those bloody, gory, and very scary monsters. Bloody murders, obscene language, nudity — all these make it difficult to watch horror flicks with your family or kids. But there is a solution!

There are always horror films with PG ratings, and here are seven fall movies that you can enjoy with the whole family or if you’re just a big wuss. From creepy animated films to good-old 90s classics, there’s something for everyone.

1. Coraline

Coraline is not the only animated movie worth watching during the fall season. Frankenweenie, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, Paranorman, and many other dark cartoons can be watched by pretty much anyone. But Coraline is still the most unusual movie on the list. It’s a dark world of dreams, where people have buttons instead of eyes, and the spirits of children roam the streets. The absolute gem among gems!

2. Gremlins

You should watch Gremlins on Christmas Eve, although do not hesitate if you haven’t seen these iconic holiday movies yet. Kids may be spooked by disgusting, evil little monsters trying to ruin everyone’s lives. Still, adults will definitely appreciate all the references and double-entendre’s the writers have put into these movies. Gremlins is a hilarious satire of everything and everyone that anyone will be able to enjoy.

3. Little Shop of Horrors

Seymour is a real loser who works in a flower shop. One day he finds a very unusual plant and brings it to work. Because why not? The flower, however, does not require watering or sunlight, and all it needs is — you guessed it — human blood and meat. In return, the flower attracts visitors, but only to have a snack. Shenanigans ensue. It’s a dark comedy with some of the most iconic lines and songs from any horror movie.
