Horror movies that involve RELIGION

Do you think that religion in horror movies makes them creepy? I do. Anything that involves Satanism, voodoo...etc. just adds to the illusion that it could be for real. After all, who knows?

What are some of your favorite horror movies that involve religion? What are some you don't like?

A few examples would be:

The Exorcist. (duh) 👇
The Ninth Gate
The Seventh Sign
The Prophecy
The Omen
Rosemary's Baby
Night Train to Terror 👇
Satan's School for Girls 👇

And some not-so-scary movies that involve the devil, hell, voodoo and/or religion:

Stigmata 👇
Bless the Child 👇
End of Days 👇
The Serpent and the Rainbow (it IS in the horror section)
Frailty

Stigmata was interesting IMO..but many disagree.

It bored me.

better than Exorcist IMO

I think I would rank The Exorcist above it, but then again, I've only watched Stigmata once, in the theater.

Don't forgot the entire "Witchcraft" franchise, Lost Souls, Devil's Advocate, Prince of Darkness, and Black Circle Boys.

I think the people in the movie are what make them evil. Gabriel Byrne and Al Pacino make great devils.

well the movie se7en should def be somewhere on that list... because kevin spacy's character is such a great idea for a slasher type movie. brillient movie!

frailty... this is prob the first movie i started of hating but ended up loving in the end. first off bill paxton should stick with twister, and thats it. the directing and acting in the movie werent the best of the best, actaully the story itself is so clithe... that is until the ending. best turn around in any movie i have seen recently. i went from hating this movei to enjoying it!

I can only watch Frailty once. After one viewing, all the suspense is gone. Not rack worthy, IMO.

yeha i actaully only watched it once...hahah

maybe i should try it again

I know its not a movie, but Buffy the Vampire Slayer is very entgertaining! There was only one episode that freaked me though - "Hush" whree no-one can speak

Amlap-- Frailty is one of my favorite movies.

Cinemaddiction-- I knew I was forgetting about some... I love The Devils Advocate. I watched Prince of Darkness for the firs time last year, I enjoyed it.

"I know its not a movie, but Buffy the Vampire Slayer is very entgertaining!"

actually it is a movie........it starred Kristi Swanson, Donald Sutherland, Luke Perry and David Arquette........but yeah, I get that you were talking about the tv show (which I loathe)....just throwing that in there in case you didn't already know.

black circle boys... i didnt know what to make of that movie...

Other horror movies that involve religion :

The SIn Eater

I agree with you totally I find Devils Advocate one of the best and most distrubeing movie involed with religon. Al Pacino played his part great even though I think Robert DeNiro is the best actor ever and i think his best competion is Al i still say Al can still make his charatcers in movies way more intresting and fun to watch. but only a limited amount 😉 u cant top Robert DeNiro
