I didn’t know WWE made all of these horror movies
Every WWE Studios Horror Movie Ranked From Worst To Best

The only one I knew was WWE was SEE NO EVIL

7. See No Evil (2006)


One of WWE Studios’ most famous horror movie franchises, See No Evil follows a group of inmates who embark on a work release program to an old abandoned hotel. They’re offered three months off their respective sentences for three days spent cleaning up the old hotel in preparation for it to be reopened as a homeless shelter. Unfortunately, the old hotel is also inhabited by a crazed serial killer who removes the eyes of his victims.

Starring WWE’s Kane, See No Evil really embodies early 2000s horror movies in every way possible, and while that’s not necessarily a bad thing, it doesn’t really work here. The whole film seems like a flimsy, contrived premise to create cool kills, and it doesn’t really deliver on that front either. That being said, this original movie is completely made up for by its sequel, which really delivers on everything See No Evil was trying to be.

6. The Day (2011)


A Canadian post-apocalyptic horror movie directed by Douglas Aarniokoski, The Day follows a group of five survivors who are traveling the countryside looking for supplies and somewhere safe where they can hole up and try to rebuild. However, tribes of cannibals roam the same land, attacking, killing, and eating any remaining survivors. Of course, the survivors run into a gang of cannibals and things go awry from there.

While the premise of a post-apocalyptic story following a group of survivors is certainly not unique, The Day offers an interesting variation with roaming tribes of cannibals rather than zombies or Mad Max-style psychos. The movie offers some other interesting twists and turns, but overall ends up being just middling in terms of quality and interest.


5. Mohawk (2017)

This period action-horror movie follows a young Mohawk warrior as her people are thrust into the War of 1812 against their will, and she’s pursued by a group of new American military renegades set on revenge. Fleeing into the woods, she has to use every resource available to her in order to survive and kill the soldiers set on taking her life.

Mohawk stars an actual Mohawk actress, Kaniehtiio Horn, and other indigenous actors in the roles of her family and tribesmen, which is definitely a plus for this film. It was co-written by director Ted Geoghegan and renowned novelist Grady Hendrix (Satanic Panic). A thrilling political commentary and depiction of the way indigenous peoples were treated during the settlement of America, this movie doesn’t hold back on brutality.

4. The Call (2013)

Starring Halle Berry and Abigail Breslin, The Call focuses on Jordan, a 911 operator who - still recovering from a botched call that led to the death of a young girl - receives a call from another young girl, Casey, who’s been kidnapped by the same man. Putting the wits and survival skills of both women to the test, the story follows as Jordan does everything she can to ensure they find Casey alive.

Offering the basics of a traditional thriller, this movie is definitely compelling, holding the audience’s attention through every twist and turn. While it’s certainly not something that’s never been seen before, The Call is well-crafted and the performances are good overall. All in all, it’s a solid thriller.

3. See No Evil 2 (2014)

See No Evil 2 takes place in the morgue that takes in all the bodies of the first film, including killer Jacob Goodnight. When morgue worker Amy is getting ready to leave for the night, her friends decide to surprise her at work with a birthday party. Soon after, Jacob Goodnight reveals himself to not actually be dead, and starts stalking and killing each person left in the morgue, one by one.

Directed by Jen and Sylvia Soska (American Mary, Rabid), See No Evil 2 brings in horror greats Danielle Harris (Halloween, Hatchet) and Katharine Isabelle (Ginger Snaps, Hannibal). Due in part to this new direction and ample talent, See No Evil 2 is everything the original movie wanted to be, and delivers on deploying interesting and brutal kills, high tension scares, and a truly terrifying killer. This is the movie that makes the See No Evil franchise an underrated gem.

2. No One Lives (2012)



When a couple traveling across country stop at a rural motel for a few nights, they encounter trouble by way of a local gang member who decides to kidnap them in order to make up for the burglary he botched earlier. However, when they find a kidnapped girl locked up in a concealed box in the couple’s car trunk, the tables turn. The gang figures out they are actually up against a highly efficient, psychopathic serial killer determined to ensure No One Lives.

For what is basically just a more simplistic version of Adam Wingardand Simon Barrett’s movie The Guest, this movie is surprisingly enjoyable, mixing campy, laugh-out-loud moments with brutal kills. Luke Evans (The Alienist, Beauty & The Beast) does an amazing job in the lead role of the killer, and the movie does a great job of building tension along with interesting and visceral killing scenarios. Overall, a great movie for some mindless gore.

1. Oculus (2013)

Oculus is a psychological horror film that stars Karen Gillan (Guardians of the Galaxy) as a woman convinced that an antique mirror is responsible for the death of her parents. But, when her brother is finally released from the psychiatric hospital after years of therapy, she sets up an experiment to prove to everyone that the mirror and not Tim, her father, or any of the mirror’s previous owners, is the real killer.

Not totally horror related but a good read nonetheless ^^^:

From the beginning, Black films have been used to challenge stereotypes of race, tell great stories, and create laughs. There have been various eras within Black film history that focused on social and political movements. "Race films," or "race movies" as a specific film classification came to be around 1915 as a means of combatting the Jim Crow South and negative racist stereotypes in the early 1900s. Later, blaxploitation films were developed following victories of the civil rights movement. The genre was geared toward young Black Americans and had many political undertones. As industry leaders driving the progress and development of Black-inclusive film, Black writers, directors, producers, musicians, cast, and crew have created award-winning movie scores, horror films, and comedies.

Many Hollywood films have historically caricaturized the Black experience. Today, even films that aren't overtly racist often perpetuate harmful stereotypes or tropes. However, Black creatives and others have worked tirelessly to combat these views with their own work. This list celebrates various representations both in genre and accolades and contains a number of firsts, including the first Black woman with a movie that earned $100 million at the box office.

I aint know the call was by wwe
I didn’t know any on the list besides See No Evil were WWE. But considering that the only personas that I really know from WWE are The Bella sisters - my thoughts aren’t saying much . But I’m still surprised that WWE has that number of horror movies under its belt.
:yeshrug:
They’re not up there with Blumhouse, A24, Gravitas Ventures etc but that list of wwe movies are decent for what they are.
