Nothing beats watching a horror film in a dark theatre with superb surround sound to add to the creepy atmosphere! To spice up your Halloween, here are a few movies you should catch while it screens InCinemas!
A reimagining of the classic horror tale about Carrie White (Chloë Grace Moretz), a shy girl outcast by her peers and sheltered by her deeply religious mother (Julianne Moore), who unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town after being pushed too far at her senior prom.
Several years have passed since the “cursed video clip” incidents. There is a mysterious outbreak of multiple deaths, but the cause is unknown. At the same time, there are many incidents of disappearance. Perhaps it is an outbreak of some new kind of virus, or intentional terrorist activity? During the ongoing investigation, it is established that there is some kind of relationship to the “cursed video clip” incidents that occurred a few years earlier...
A mysterious little girl holds the key to solving the story. Does this little girl have some kind of connection to Sadako? When all of the incidents are linked as one, the ultimate extent of the mystery is revealed.
Well, if you’re too afraid to step out of the house without a costume on, here are some movies you can enjoy at the comfort of your home!

Haunted Houses Anyone...?
It’s safe to say that a Halloween celebration in Singapore probably means a trip to haunted houses for some spine-chilling fun. You get frightened by the ‘ghosts’ and ‘chabas’ while you walk the trails, but unknowingly find yourself wanting more at the end of it.
Here are two popular haunted house trails you can consider. (Guys, this is the time!)
Sentosa Spooktacular
You've heard about these popular haunted trails, you know you want to scream and just have fun with your friends, and Sentosa Spooktacular will do just that.
This year's Sentosa Spooktacular brings the
classic Thai horror movie to life, re-enacting several scenes that once
gave you the frights and chills. It's "exciting" to know that the 5
trails are designed based on Coming Soon, Shutter, Body, Dorm and the recent 2013 released movie Pee Mak.
