Horror fans are in for a treat! A lot of new scary movies and true crime documentaries are coming out this week. You’ll find everything from classic monster movies and suspenseful slashers to chilling stories based on real crimes, both in theaters and on streaming services. This guide will help you find all the horror content releasing now.

‘Night Patrol’ (2026)

The new horror film, ‘Night Patrol,’ will start streaming on February 10, 2026. Critics have given it a lukewarm reception (58%), and audiences seem even less impressed (34%). The movie follows police officers and the creepy things they encounter while working the night shift. It’s the first of several horror and suspense titles being released this week.

‘Gale: Yellow Brick Road’ (2026)

A new movie, ‘Gale: Yellow Brick Road,’ offers a frightening and suspenseful twist on the familiar story of the Land of Oz. Released in theaters on February 11, 2026, the film follows Emily Gale, Dorothy’s granddaughter, as she uncovers unsettling secrets about her family’s history and a hidden supernatural world. This reimagining transforms the beloved tale into a psychological thriller.

‘The Mortuary Assistant’ (2026)

On February 11, 2026, ‘The Mortuary Assistant’ will be released in theaters nationwide, courtesy of Seismic Releasing. The film is based on the well-loved video game and centers on a mortuary apprentice who must prepare bodies for burial while fighting off demonic forces. Viewers familiar with the game will find the film’s intense moments and supernatural elements true to the original. The movie aims to bring the unsettling and frightening environment of a funeral home to life on the big screen.

‘Broken Bird’ (2026)

I just got a look at the release schedule, and ‘Broken Bird,’ an indie horror film, is hitting theaters for a limited run on February 11, 2026. It’s one of a bunch of horror movies opening mid-week, clearly aiming for that audience who actively seeks out smaller, more specialized films. It’s great to see such a diverse range of horror hitting screens, from big releases to these more curated experiences, and ‘Broken Bird’ definitely adds to that variety.

‘Mimics’ (2026)

‘Mimics,’ a new horror film from ArtAffects Entertainment, will be in select theaters February 11, 2026. The movie follows creatures that can shapeshift into the form of their victims, creating widespread chaos. It uses practical effects and builds suspense to make both the characters and the audience feel increasingly paranoid. This limited theatrical release offers a classic monster-movie experience for horror fans.

‘Love, Ted Bundy’ (2026)

A new documentary called ‘Love, Ted Bundy’ is being released this week, exploring the life of one of America’s most notorious serial killers. The film uses letters and personal writings from Bundy himself to offer a rare and unsettling glimpse into his private life and how he manipulated others. By analyzing these firsthand sources, the documentary aims to reveal the stark difference between the public persona Bundy created and his true nature. It’s a historical look at the mind of a violent criminal, offering insight into the psychology of offenders like him.

‘Primate’ (2026)

The new film ‘Primate’ kicks off with a terrifying scenario: a chimpanzee driven mad and attacking anyone in its path. It’s a survival horror story that taps into our deepest fears about the dangers of the natural world, as the characters desperately try to stay one step ahead of this incredibly smart and aggressive animal. Confined to a limited space, the movie delivers intense physical action and suspense, focusing on the raw conflict between humans and animals. If you’re looking for a thrilling, action-packed horror film, it’s a great change of pace from the more psychological or supernatural options currently available.

‘The Huntsman’ (2026)

“The Huntsman” is a new horror film releasing directly to streaming. It’s a suspenseful thriller about a meticulous serial killer and the terrifying reasons behind their crimes. The movie focuses on building tension and a creepy atmosphere, making it a good choice for fans of slasher and thriller films.

‘The Haunted Forest’ (2026)

Starting February 13, 2026, viewers can stream ‘The Haunted Forest,’ a story about a group of people who stumble upon dangerous spirits in a creepy, supernatural forest. As they venture further in, they’re forced to face their own anxieties and uncover the forest’s hidden, dark history. The film uses traditional spooky elements within a large, cursed setting.

‘Be My Valentine’ (2026)

Okay, so ‘Be My Valentine’ is hitting streamers on February 14th, 2026, and it’s definitely aiming for those of us who like a little horror with our hearts. It’s a classic Valentine’s Day slasher flick – think romance gone horribly wrong. I haven’t seen it yet, so I can’t give you a score, but it’s clearly trying to tap into that seasonal craving for a good scare. It wraps up the week’s releases with a promise of suspense and, let’s be honest, some pretty intense violence.
