Full FearFest 2024 Schedule of Horror Movies on AMC Released for Halloween

As a lifelong fan of horror movies, I can’t contain my excitement for AMC’s FearFest lineup this year! Growing up, Halloween was always a special time, not just because of the candy and costumes, but also because it meant marathon sessions of my favorite fright flicks.


As October approaches, there are numerous methods to embrace the eerie atmosphere, but some might argue that nothing compares to watching your favorite horror films again. Though several fresh movies will be in cinemas soon, many enthusiasts prefer to watch scary films at home for their chills, and with so many streaming platforms offering thrills, it can be confusing to choose one title. This is where AMC’s FearFest comes in handy, as it simplifies the decision by providing a long stretch of unsettling content that will give you goosebumps.

For the fortnight prior to Halloween, enthusiasts can anticipate viewing episodes from classic series such as “Halloween”, “Friday the 13th”, and “A Nightmare on Elm Street”, along with popular adaptations of Stephen King’s works. Moreover, certain days will be dedicated to showcasing marathons themed around John Carpenter, beloved sequels, and specific eras.

Here I am, fellow horror fans! Don’t forget to check out the complete lineup for AMC’s FearFest and jot down the dates for your must-watch movies! Let the spooky season begin! 👻🎥📅
