I mean, I watch horror movies anyway, but it\u2019s time to get some extras watched. Now, there\u2019s a specific one to add to the list.<\/p>\n<p>There is only one 100% Rotten Tomatoes-scored horror movie out in 2025 from what I can tell, at least with any significant amount of reviews in, and that is <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/v_h_s_halloween\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/v_h_s_halloween\" aria-label=\"V\/H\/S Halloween,\">V\/H\/S Halloween,<\/a> the latest entry in the lengthy horror anthology series that is reviewing better than all the rest. Here\u2019s the synopsis:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA collection of Halloween-themed videotapes unleashes a series of twisted, blood-soaked tales, turning trick-or-treat into a struggle for survival.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Those familiar with the V\/H\/S series know its concept by now, a shared world of \u201cvideo tapes\u201d that each contain some horrible story directed by unique directors ranging from the unknown to soon-to-be-famous to the already-famous. There are now eight installments in the V\/H\/S franchise which began in 2012 and is still going 13 years later with great new entries. They\u2019re not all winners, of course. Here\u2019s how they stack up via Rotten Tomatoes score:<\/p>\n<p>V\/H\/S Halloween \u2013 100%V\/H\/S Beyond \u2013 90%V\/H\/S 94 \u2013 90%V\/H\/S 99 \u2013 75%V\/H\/S 85 \u2013 74%V\/H\/S\/2 \u2013 70%V\/H\/S \u2013 55%V\/H\/S Viral \u2013 32%<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a series that has, generally speaking, gotten better in time, and now that has culminated with the release of Halloween, which as of now, is the best-scored of them all. And with that 100%, that also makes V\/H\/S Halloween presently the best-scored horror movie of 2025. Here\u2019s that list:<\/p>\n<p>V\/H\/S Halloween \u2013 100%Sinners \u2013 97%Weapons \u2013 94%Companion \u2013 93%Final Destination: Bloodlines \u2013 92%Together \u2013 90%28 Years Later \u2013 89%Bring Her Back \u2013 89%The Long Walk \u2013 89%Presence \u2013 88%Nosferatu \u2013 84%Drop \u2013 83%The Monkey \u2013 77%Heart Eyes \u2013 77%The Gorge \u2013 62%Borderline \u2013 59%M3GAN 2.0 \u2013 58%Until Dawn \u2013 52%<\/p>\n<p>It is, of course, entirely possible that as more reviews come in that V\/H\/S Halloween loses that 100% score. And I don\u2019t think anyone would seriously make the case that it\u2019s better than Sinners or Weapons, but hey, it seems like it\u2019s going to be pretty good. Like the others, it\u2019s a Shudder original, a service you should automatically have if you\u2019re into horror, and it is officially out on Thursday, October 3. Check it out then.<\/p>\n<p>Follow me <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\" aria-label=\"on Twitter\">on Twitter<\/a>, <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\" aria-label=\"YouTube\">YouTube<\/a><a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\" aria-label=\",\">,<\/a> and <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\" aria-label=\"Instagram\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Pick up my sci-fi novels the <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\" aria-label=\"Herokiller series\">Herokiller series<\/a> and <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\" aria-label=\"The Earthborn Trilogy\">The Earthborn Trilogy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"V\/H\/S Halloween V\/H\/S Halloween It is officially October, and if you\u2019re like me, you are going to jam&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":173006,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[77491,96,2839,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-173005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-best-horror-movie-2025","tag-entertainment","tag-movies","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/173005","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=173005"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/173005\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/173006"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=173005"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=173005"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=173005"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
