top 50 best pg-13 horror movies of all time

 

When most of us think of watching a horror movie, we are mainly looking forward to getting scared out of our wits. Thankfully for us, we have a ton of visceral and graphic options to select from.

 

Ever since its introduction, the PG-13 rating has allowed many young viewers to relish content that many parents may otherwise consider a bit too much for a comparatively friendlier PG rating.

 

While most classic and contemporary horror features are rated R, one simply cannot deny the fact that a few good ones have also been allotted the PG-13 rating.

 

So, today, we are going to be discussing the best PG-13 supernatural and monster titles to have ever hit the screens.

 

These movies do not only thrive on the tension injected into their storytelling but also on the gore gags and dark humor that provide a definitive edge to their overall presentation.

 

 

 

1. The Sixth Sense (1999)

Box Office $293.51M
IMDb Rating 8.1

Writers M. Night Shyamalan
Music By James Newton Howard
Cinematography By Tak Fujimoto

Film director M. Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense is one of the most respected horror feature films in cinema history.

 

The supernatural psychological thriller traces the journey of a child psychologist named Malcolm Crowe and a young boy he is attending to.

 

The child holds a firm opinion that he can see ghosts. But, that is only the surface of the movie's incredibly layered screenplay.

 

This motion picture is credited with giving cinema one of its most iconic punchlines: "I see dead people." It does not rely on attractive special effects or abrupt jump-scares to make an impact.

 

Instead, it compels the viewers to run their minds, while keeping them on the edge of their seats throughout its run time.

 

It wouldn't be an exaggeration then to claim that the finale of The Sixth Sense has got to be among the finest endings in a horror-themed motion picture.

 

Needless to say, the movie is credited with turning M. Night Shyamalan into a much sought-after name within the industry.

 

 

 

2. The Birds (1963)

Box Office $11.40M
IMDb Rating 7.7
Metascore 90
Writers Daphne Du Maurier
Music By Robert Burks
Cinematography By George Tomasini
Costume By Virginia Darcy

 

Alfred Hitchcock is such a revered director for his innovative genius that his name itself can be used as a premier adjective to define innovative cinema.

 

What makes The Birds' storytelling and directorial triumph is that he uses minimalistic supporting cinematic techniques to create another "Hitchcockian" spectacular.

 

The storyline of the horror-thriller tracks the journey of Melanie; a rich socialite who ends up pursuing a lawyer named Mitch to his home in Bodega Bay. However, bizarre and life-threatening things begin to happen as the birds in the area start attacking the residents.

 

Even though Tippi Hedren's enchanting beauty, Rod Taylor's machismo, and Suzanne Pleshette's enigma take center stage, it is the ace director who is the true star of this classic feature film.

 

Hitchcock's usage of an atmospheric background score and the sounds of the birds to create an eerie uneasiness throughout the motion picture worked wonders.

 

 

 

3. The Others (2001)

Costume By Benjamín Fernández

 

Director Alejandro Amenábar's The Others features a cast headlined by actors such as Nicole Kidman, Fionnula Flanagan, Christopher Eccleston, Elaine Cassidy, Eric Sykes, Alakina Mann, and James Bentley.

 

The film traces the journey of Grace and her two photosensitive children. After the shift to a new house in Jersey, a series of unexpected supernatural events start to make her believe that her house may be haunted by wicked spirits.

 

The Others is an amazing horror feature that has an emotional undertone in its storytelling, as well as the ability to make its viewers think.

 

Much like The Sixth Sense, it also ends on a very high note. In fact, its climax happens to be its unique selling point and the atmosphere that it creates to get there is truly praiseworthy.

 

 

 

4. A Quiet Place (2018)

Metascore 82
Writers Bryan Woods
Music By Marco Beltrami
Cinematography By Charlotte Bruus Christensen
Costume By Jeffrey Beecroft

 

The husband and wife team of John Krasinski and Emily Blunt brings to us one of the finest horror movies of the 21st century.

 

Helmed by Krasinski, the story follows a beautiful family that battles to survive in a world that has apparently been destroyed by noise-sensitive monsters.

 

The fear is so deep that they are forced to learn and use sign language to communicate. As viewers, we get drawn into the storytelling and can do no better than to just remain silent as the story unfolds.

 

While Krasinski's direction is superb, his performance, along with that of his reel and real-life wife Emily Blunt, is also something to watch out for.

 

A Quiet Place relies on its ambitious setting, serious atmosphere, and strong performances to connect with its viewers.

 

 

5. Split (2016)

Cinematography By Mike Gioulakis
Costume By Mara LePere-Schloop

 

Split is a M. Night Shyamalan directorial venture to make it to our piece. Even though the filmmaker hasn't directed great movies in the recent past, Split managed to make his loyal supporters happy again.

 

The story of this psychological horror thriller follows a guy named Kevin. The thing with the calm-looking Kevin is that he is dealing from dissociative identity disorder and has 23 different alter egos.

 

One of his alter-egos ends up kidnapping three teenagers, who are left with no option but to figure out when his friendly personality takes over.

 

However, the catch here is that he is soon about to unleash his 24th alter-ego.

 

Split is not only an impressive attempt at studying a character that James McAvoy portrays but it is also a thriller that draws you in steadily; all while keeping the intensity alive throughout its runtime.

 

 

6. 10 Cloverfield Lane (2016)

IMDb Rating 7.2
Metascore 76
Writers Josh Campbell
Music By Bear McCreary
Cinematography By Jeff Cutter
Costume By Ramsey Avery Amelia Brooke

 

Director Dan Trachtenberg's 10 Cloverfield Lane is a fine mixture of science fiction and horror. While it does not follow the tropes of a conventional horror feature, its climax cements its claim of being a monster flick.

 

The story follows Michelle, who, after an unfortunate accident, somehow ends up in a bunker with a man named Howard.

 

Much to her disbelief, Howard notifies her that she is safe with him and that the world outside is not habitable anymore. Confused and desperate to get out, she plans her escape. However, what she finds out once she is out shocks her deeply.

 

Toplined by John Goodman and Mary Elizabeth Winstead, the motion picture keeps you guessing until the end. Matter of fact, it pretty much succeeds in making you see things through the eyes of Winstead's character.

 

It is one of those full-length features that banks heavily on its story, instead of special effects and pointless action.

This post-apocalyptic horror film is a direct sequel to 2018's A Quiet Place. It continues from where the first instalment of the franchise climaxes.

 

The film shows how Regan and her family are now aware of the fact that predators can be deterred using high-frequency audio.

 

This particular discovery and their brainpower are the only weapons that they are armed with post the demise of Lee Abbott, the father.

 

While Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, and Noah Jupe continue to play their respective roles from the first movie, actors like Cillian Murphy and Djimon Hounsou are new and worthy additions to the cast.

 

Director John Krasinski aims to build suspense through pacing and manages to pull it off yet again. The fact that we get to see more of the hideous creatures this time around also makes the film intriguing; especially given its time of release.

 

A Quiet Place II set the box office ablaze by recording one of the biggest opening weekends during the time of the COVID-19 pandemic.

This Gore Verbinski-helmed feature film stars Naomi Watts, Martin Henderson, David Dorfman, Jane Alexander, Brian Cox, and Daveigh Chase in pivotal roles.

 

It is a successful remake of a very scary Japanese horror movie Ring, which itself was based on Koji Suzuki's 1991 novel of the same name.

 

The story follows a young and brave journalist named Rachel, who, after the horrifying death of her niece Katie, starts to scrutinize a mysterious videotape that somehow slays its viewers within a week of them having seen it.

 

One of the highest-grossing horror movie remakes of all time, The Ring opened to positive reviews at the ticket counters and turned out to be an enormous box office success.

 

It was appreciated for its atmospheric setting, visuals, and the adroit performance by Watts. The success of The Ring paved the way for several other horror remakes.

 

 

9. Gremlins (1984)

 

gremlins (1984)

 

Let's just start by stating that Gremlins was considered to be so psychologically scarring at the time of its release that it went on to become one of the first few features to trigger the dawn of the PG-13 rating.

 

The film is full of weird and malevolent touches, and its ambition to startle is crystal clear right from the moment it opens.

 

A multi-layered critique of our consumerist values, the movie carries the hallmarks of a cult classic for it thrives on its rather implausible set-up and dramatic finale.

 

However, it is imperative to mention that the highly quotable Gremlins provides both scares and food for thought in equal measure, and is also darkly humorous at times.

 

Better still, it takes you to that point in time when we were little kids who could easily be frightened. While the monsters manage to steal the show with their wicked presence, the human actors in the project are also quite good.

 

Over time, several features have tried to emulate the success and impact of Gremlins but none of them have even come close.

 

 

10. Tremors (1990)

Tremors is a science fiction horror film that traces the journey of two handymen, Valentine and Earl, who happen to be staying in the town of Perfection in Nevada.

 

They soon agree to leave town but before they get to do so, they stumble upon the dead body of a companion. Not long after, they discover that eerie underground creatures are on a people-killing rampage.

 

The movie showcases how the monsters move underground at a rapid pace and slay their targets from under the ground.

 

Even though the plot may come across as silly on the surface, this Ron Underwood directorial venture is a highly enjoyable entertainer.

 

However, the best part about it is the fact that it comes across as original despite the fact that a cult monster flick like Gremlins had already been released at the time. Matter of fact, many film critics even see it as a multi-genre film.

 

Tremors stars actors like Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, Finn Carter, Michael Gross, and Reba McEntire in prominent roles.

Even though the florist hopes that his fortunes can turn around, what actually ensues makes this black comedy horror feature film a truly enjoyable watch.

Little Shop of Horrors opened to favorable reviews from critics and has developed a cult following ever since its theatrical release in 1986. While it underperformed at the ticket windows, it went on to be a success when released as a home video on VHS the following year.

World War Z is an action-horror feature that has been helmed for the screen by Marc Forster. The story follows a former United Nations employee named Gerry, who has to race against time to save himself and his family from bloodthirsty zombies.

 

The motion picture shows humans turning into zombies after having gotten infected with an unknown virus. While the premise was certainly exciting for the year that the film was released, it can sound a bit more haunting given that the world has been maimed by a life-threatening virus in the recent past.

 

Based on the 2006 novel of the same name by author Max Brooks, World War Z stars an ensemble cast that includes actors such as Brad Pitt, includes Mireille Enos, Daniella Kertesz, James Badge Dale, Ludi Boeken, Matthew Fox, Fana Mokoena, David Morse, Elyes Gabel, Peter Capaldi, Pierfrancesco Favino, Ruth Negga, and Moritz Bleibtreu.

 

 

14. Under the Shadow (2016)

 

Under the Shadow (2016)

 

Set in Tehran during the height of the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s, Under the Shadow is an intelligent horror movie that shows a woman and her daughter fighting not only an otherworldly presence in their apartment but also a repressive society that doesn't think too highly of women.

 

Helmed by Babak Anvari and headlined by Narges Rashidi, the motion picture is a refreshing watch for everyone who feels that the genre has stagnated in the recent past.

 

It blends the horrors of the war with that of the supernatural in a way that you may have never seen before in a mainstream feature.

 

Needless to say, Under the Shadow is a must-see for horror movie enthusiasts.

 

 

15. Poltergeist (1982)

 

Poltergeist (1982)

 

"They're here" are two simple words that announce the arrival of the supernatural in 1982's classic horror movie Poltergeist. While the paranormal activities seem a tad innocent at first, they steadily grow into something much more sinister, and, ultimately, life-threatening for the characters.

 

Even though the motion picture thrives on its technology and supernatural elements, it is almost certain to come off as mild to most viewers today.

 

However, you must know that following its theatrical outing in the United States, it pushed several home buyers to insist on a background check to ensure there wasn't a burial site on the property.

This remarkable chiller features talented actors like Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne in the lead. Both actors play their characters excellently.

 

It is the first installment in the famous Insidious franchise of motion pictures.

 

 

18. Signs (2002)

 

Signs (2002)

 

This intense and dramatic M. Night Shyamalan project thrives on elements of science fiction and horror. It tells us the story of a family and how they manage to withstand a potential alien invasion while staying on a secluded farm.

 

Signs is populated with jump scares that allow the viewers to get drawn to the story steadily. However, its true strength lies in its characters that come across as relatable, to say the least.

 

Even though the finale is a little convenient, it is the superb performances of the entire cast that keeps you invested in the film throughout its run time.

Whenever we get to hear the word exorcism, our instincts immediately take us to the 1973 classic The Exorcist. Therefore, any horror film with 'exorcism' in its title is under the pressure of doing full justice to it.

 

While The Exorcism of Emily Rose may not exactly be a horror classic, it tries its best to depict the real-life story of Annelise Michel on celluloid.

 

The girl, who was diagnosed with Epilepsy due to a row of visions and episodes that she endured, is put through the process of exorcism; an exercise that, ultimately, ends up taking her life.

 

The Scott Derrickson-helmed project merges the traditional approach of demonstrating exorcism with a thoughtful legal drama and does so effectively.

With a premise that appears to be a fair mixture of Groundhog Day and Scream, Happy Death Day is a successful attempt that has managed to carve a niche for itself in the highly populated market of horror motion pictures.

Sooner than later, she discovers the truth about her husband and his student; something that shocks her beyond belief.
