Add these frightening films to your watchlist:

Looking for something scary to watch? Detroit Film Theatre’s longtime director Elliot Wilhelm joined CultureShift’s Ryan Patrick Hooper to share his must-watch horror movies:

“Rear Window” (1954)

“Hitchcock was so strong as a storyteller that you could visually follow the storytelling wordlessly,” says Wilhelm.

“The Sweet Smell of Success” (1957)

“It shows New York as this kind of engine where you need to be vicious to survive,” says Wilhelm of the 1957 film noir drama

“Night of the Living Dead” (1968)

“Who knew that a zombie movie would be that successful at putting their finger on the pulse of the fear and the anxiety and the despair that so many felt going on politically and morally in this country in the 1960s?” says Wilhelm. Watch “Night of the Living Dead” in its entirety here »
