When it comes to Disney movies, there are so many beloved classics that’s it hard to keep track of all of them. Years and years of groundbreaking, memorable films that defined the childhoods of millions of people.
…And then there are these Disney films. The other ones. The ones that history has consigned to the dollar bin.
Frankly, I didn’t even really know that any of these existed, but I guess you can’t produce only hits all the time, right?
Take a look at these 15 Disney movies that you most likely have never even heard of.
You’ve probably watched most of the classic horror movies that pop up around the Halloween season, but unless you’re a fanatic, you might have missed a bunch of lesser-known creepy movies that offer big scares.
Try these underrated horror movies on for size.
These suggestions come to us from the Buzzfeed community…and I added a couple of my own personal favorites on at the end.
1. 1408 (2007)
“1408 is really good, and the theatrical ending is way better than the original. It’s such an underrated movie.”
2. Funny Games (2007)
“Funny Games should definitely be on this list! It’s so creepy and after seeing it, the sound of a golf ball dropping on a hardwood floor STILL gets to me.”
3. Absentia (2011)
“If you’re looking for low-key, atmospheric horror, here it is.”
4. Trick ‘r Treat (2007)
“I’m a huge horror movie fan, and when I saw Trick ‘r Treat I thought it would be a mediocre horror movie. But boy was I wrong, it’s brilliant! It has a campy feel to it but it was just as intense as most horror movies.”
5. The Evil Dead (1981)
“The Evil Dead is the best cult classic of horror. The effects are campy but creepy as hell and the next two in the trilogy take it to the next level. Seriously, Evil Dead is one of the only horror movies I can watch on repeat. Sam Raimi is a genius.”
6. Contagion (2011)
“I know it’s only rated PG-13, but the most terrifying part about this movie is how realistic it is!”
7. The Fourth Kind (2009)
“It’s about aliens and probably won’t scare everyone who watches it, but it’s definitely the movie that kept me up the longest. I’ve seen the classics, but this one still gives me chills when I think about it.”
8. Cabin Fever 3: Patient Zero (2014)
“It’s an unspoken rule with horror that sequels suck, but Cabin Fever 3 is an exception. It’s gory, intense, clever, and pretty much everything a horror movie should be.”
9. The Mist (2007)
“This movie isn’t scary because of what’s in the mist, but because of how all the survivors turned on each other. That’s what truly scared me the most. Seeing The Mist was also one of the few times I’ve been open-mouth shocked at an ending.”
10. Creep (2004)
“Creep is a British film based in the tunnels of the London Underground. It terrified me when I first saw it and still does now.”
11. A Tale of Two Sisters (2003)
“This movie is brilliantly scary. It’s a South Korean horror film about a girl returning to her family home following a stay in a psychiatric unit. One of the scariest scenes features the main character’s sister hearing a strange noise in the middle of the night and hiding under the covers. Without cutting away from her on the bed, we hear the door open, footsteps towards the bed, then see the blankets pulled down away from her face. It’s honestly terrifying, gorgeously shot, and has such a great twist ending.”
12. Monsters (2010)
“It flew way under the radar and was unfairly brushed off as a poor-man’s Cloverfield, but this is a must-see. This film is a good chronicle of two characters trying to survive something much bigger than themselves, and it really wins during the last half hour. It’s beautiful, scary, and surprisingly thought provoking.”
13. Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)
“The 1978 version with Donald Sutherland is the creepiest atmospheric sci-fi horror film I’ve ever seen!”
14. Final Destination 3 (2006)
“Everybody needs to see Final Destination 3. The rest are pretty meh, but the third installment totally revolutionizes the horror genre. There’s no movie like it!”
15. Shutter (2004)
“Horror movies don’t scare me too easily, but the one horror movie that seriously freaked me out was The Shutter. This horror movie freaked me and my sister out so much that she couldn’t sleep for a week. I watched it years ago, and the name Natre still freaks me out.”
16. Hide and Seek (2005)
“Hide and Seek with Dakota Fanning and Robert De Niro was such a well thought out movie. The whole thing is really suspenseful and keeps your mind going. It’s a different kind of horror than most and I absolutely loved it. It’s definitely a must see.”
17. Pulse (2006)
“In an era where people are so reliant on technology and Wi-Fi, the movie Pulse really hits you hard.”
18. Dead Silence (2007)
“The movie is a mix of horrifying dolls and unexpected plot twists. I watched it when I was about 13 or 14 and had nightmares for months afterwards. To this day it’s still the scariest movie I’ve ever seen.”
And here are a couple that I recommend…
19. High Tension (2003)
Two friends retreat to the countryside in France and are stalked by a psycho killer hell-bent on killing them and anyone else who gets in his way. Creepy!
20. Angel Heart (1987)
Mickey Rourke plays a 1950s private eye who is hired to track down a singer that disappeared in Times Square after World War II ended. A really creepy, atmospheric film that sees Rourke travel through the seedy underworld of New York and New Orleans.
Is there anything better than a good coming-of-age movie?
Actually, maybe they’re tied with horror movies in my book, but that means a heck of a lot.
I have some favorites of my own I’d like to rattle off: This Boy’s Life, Stand by Me, Heaven Help Us, Mischief, The Monster Squad to name just a few. But let’s be real – the list goes on and on.
“It may be an adaptation of a Stephen King novella but the movie is just beautiful. I love how those friendships shaped their lives and helped them realize what they were trying to do was actually just really sad and depressing. It’s definitely something I recommend to everyone.”
2. The Edge of Seventeen
“Watching it when I was 16/17 really helped me because how Nadine felt was exactly what I went through. Being 17 is awkward and you’re unsure of everything and you feel like the world might end. Even though I just graduated high school, I’m still going through the motions but it’s good to feel like you aren’t alone.”
3. The Way Way Back
“The Way, Way Back has it all! A great cast, great soundtrack, and the best coming-of-age story I’ve seen from a film in a long time. The main character, Duncan, is all of us as awkward teenagers and we get to see him come into his own in the most realistic way — AKA without a major character death or similarly scarring event.”
4. Now and Then
“I’ve watched Now and Then probably 20 times. It shows that everyone is going to grow up on their own path, but that doesn’t mean you still can’t be friends. It also makes me wish I grew up in a time without cellphones and internet.”
5. Love, Simon
“It forever holds a special place in my heart and helped me see it was OK to be me.”
6. Lady Bird
“It makes you laugh, makes you cry, makes you want to call your mom. I’ve never felt more represented by any character than I did by Lady Bird. This movie literally changed my life.”
7. Akeelah and the Bee
“It’s about an 11-year-old girl in South LA who dreams of making it the National Spelling Bee despite her mom’s objections.”
8. Tall Girl
“I relate because I’m really tall and I feel lonely a lot.”
9. The Man in the Moon
“It stars a 14-year-old Reese Witherspoon and it’s a beautiful coming-of-age film set in rural Louisiana in the ’50s, and the locations used and score are gorgeous. Plus the movie itself is heartbreaking.”
10. Dirty Dancing
“I wanted to be Baby so bad, I had my mom buy me white Keds and perm my hair. I know every single line from that movie. The resort where the film is set has Dirty Dancing weekends, I think I gotta find my Johnny and go.”
11. Kids
“It’s a super dark and dramatically depressing story about tweens growing up in a New York suburb. The lesson at the end is so powerful it just makes you break down and cry. It’s hard to watch some stuff, but it’s truly what happens in places like that and everywhere for that matter.”
12. Mermaids
“Winona Ryder as Charlotte, an awkward teenage girl growing up in the ’60s, shares the perfect coming-of-age story. Her inner dialogue is GOLD. Cher plays her glamorous eccentric mother and young Christina Ricci is so cute as her little sister. So classic.”
13. My Girl
“My mom will tell you when I was a little girl and home sick from school for a few days, I would watch it, rewind it, and watch it all over again! She said I would repeat the words.”
14. Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
“Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is another John Hughes masterpiece that shows that sometimes you just need to have fun, otherwise you could miss the best things in life.”
15. The Sandlot
“I grew up watching The Sandlot. Now my sons are growing up watching The Sandlot! It’s heartfelt without being sappy. It’s timeless and funny. It’s just always a winner!”

Happy Halloween! How many of these movies are you gonna watch before October 31?
Do you have any other recommendations? Share them in the comments!
It’s very difficult to pick the best character on Seinfeld because they’re all pretty great, even the supporting characters. Jerry, Kramer, George, Newman, Uncle Leo, they’re all hilarious.
But Elaine Benes might just take the cake. Because sometimes, she spoke for all of us.
I’ve been praying for a black Icee to come along for almost my entire life, and now here it is!
I guess you could say this is my personal peak. Is that sad? I’ll let you be the judge.
But I digress: in honor of the new animated version of The Addams Family that hits theaters on October 11, AMC will sell a black cherry Icee that is totally jet black. Boom!
It's creepy, cooky, altogether ooky, just like Addams Family Movie. Try the Spooky Black Cherry Icee at participating…
The Spooky Black Cherry Icee will be available at the concession stand at AMC Theaters, and you know what the really good news is? It’s gonna turn your tongue black when you drink it so you can run around the lobby after the movie is over and creep out people waiting in line!
If you’re a youngin’, let me fill you in with a brief history of The Addams Family. The characters are based on a comic strip by artist Charles Addams that ran in The New Yorker from 1938-1988. There was a live-action version of The Addams Family on TV in the 1960s (in glorious black and white) and then the early 1990s saw a revival of the characters with two feature films.
AMC released a similar black Icee drink this summer for the release of Men in Black: International, and I’m sure there were a whole lot of black tongues at those showings as well.
Between Two Ferns: The Movie starring Zach Galifianakis is now on Netflix, and by all accounts it’s pretty hilarious.
If you’ve ever seen the Between Two Ferns show on Funny or Die, you probably already know what you’re in for: hilarious, uncomfortable interviews with big Hollywood stars.
I love it!
Here are 15 times celebrities got burned on the show.
Here’s another drink you must try this fall. It: Chapter Two recently hit theaters, and Starbucks has decided to offer a drink inspired by Pennywise, the murderous, terrifying clown from the film.
The frappuccino drink features a “strawberry blood” puree. I know I’m in!
The drink is a limited-edition item, and also it isn’t technically on the Starbucks menu, but if you ask your local barista for the Pennywise frappuccino, they’ll most likely know what you’re talking about. The drink has a vanilla bean frappuccino base with the strawberry puree (aka “blood”) mixed in. You can also add a vanilla bean scone if you want to get crazy.
A lot of Starbucks locations are not advertising the spooky concoction, but some places are letting the world know that they’re offering the drink.
The Pennywise frappuccino has actually been around since 2017 when the first It film hit the big screens, but a lot of folks still don’t know it exists.
For the It fans out there, Bill Skarsgård (who plays Pennywise) said there might be a third It film:
“Andy and I have discussed ideas for what a third movie would look like. I don’t think it’s quite what people expect. It’s something different. The first two stories are the book, and the second film is the end of that story. So we would do something quite literally off book. There are a few ideas floating around. I feel like I’ve done what I can with the incarnation of Pennywise as we know of him, so I think it would be a cool idea to change up a few things. So, without going into too much detail, there is a story that we’re kind of excited about, but it’s way too early to say. But we’ll see, we’ll see.”
I can’t wait to try this bloody—I mean strawberry-flavored drink and see a third installment of the series!
Stephen King, “The Master of Horror”, just turned 72 years old the other day, and he’s showing no signs of slowing down.
I think it’s safe to say that Stephen King has had one of the best careers in the history of books. His first novel Carrie was published in 1974, and he’s been on a roll ever since.
A whopping 42 of his books, short stories, and novellas have been adapted for the big screen, and It Chapter Two just recently hit the big screen, adding another notch in King’s belt. And there are more adaptations in the works and coming soon.
Take a look at this list of King’s books that have been turned into films and see how many you’ve seen. Anybody out there with all 42?!?!

Also – that list is straight up insane.
How many do you have under your belt? Share your number (and your favorites) in the comments! Let’s compare!
First off, I think this would be a great movie. Secondly, who do you think you would pick if you were posed with this question:
“If the headline “Celebrity outed as serial killer” appeared, who would you expect it to be about?
AskReddit users offered up their opinions. I can’t wait to dig into these!
Share your thoughts in the comments!
1. Prime suspect
“It almost pains me to say this because he is one of if not the best actors in the world, but Daniel Day-Lewis. The man protects his privacy extremely well. Doesn’t do a lot of movies (retired now) and stays as clean as possible. He is the prime guy.”
2. No way!
“Bill Murray.
“No one will ever believe you.”
turns to walk away
“You’ll never have the chance to tell them.”
3. Not a good legacy
“I hope that Tom Hanks dies peacefully in his sleep at a grand old age, with an untarnished history and nothing but funny stories about colleagues and strangers he helped and made happy.
And then they go to clear out the basement of his mansion and just find hundreds and hundreds of human heads in various states of decay.”
4. Say it ain’t so
“Carrot Top.”
5. A killer trifecta
“The first names that popped in my head were Tom Cruise, John Travolta, and Jim Carrey.”
6. A disturbed dick…
“Andy Dick… the dude is f*cking disturbed. Oh… he’s also a dick.”
7. I hope not. One of my favorite directors…
“David Fincher. Between Se7en, Zodiac, Mindhunter, and the rest of his entire filmography, he really seems fascinated with compelling serial killers, sociopaths, and psychopaths. The performances of these characters are always unique, captivating, and unnerving.
They have an air of authenticity to them. Fincher makes some great films, and I’m not seriously suggesting the dude’s a serial killer, but he’s probably the only famous person I can think of where, upon being revealed as a serial killer, a common first reaction would be, “…Yeah okay, that explains a lot.”
8. Might not be a stretch?
“Quentin Tarantino… just cause.”
9. It’s all in the eyes
“The Olsen twins. They got some menacing eyes.”
10. I think you’re right on the money
“There’s a distinct lack of female celebrities on this list. I definitely think Tilda Swinton could murder us all one day.”
11. Insane if he wants to
“Nic Cage. Have you seen the memes about the Ghost Rider movies having zero CGI and that it was all him? He can be insane if he wants to.”
12. A true villain
“Elon Musk is one face scar away from being a James Bond villain.”
13. Good old Woody
“Woody Allen. Anyone who marries their wife’s adopted young daughter is seriously creepy.”
14. Look at the track record
“Brad Pitt. If a man can leave both Angelina Jolie AND Jennifer Anniston he’s capable of anything.”
15. Can’t put my finger on it…
“Definitely Katy Perry. Something is off about her.”
