I’ve always been a big fan of animal horror movies. My criteria are that it has to be classified as a horror movie and usually the animal either gets really big or there’s tons of them! 🙂 Can’t be plants or aliens or demons or people changing into creatures, but they can be ancient terrestrial monsters. Most of them are pretty low budget, but they’re still fun.
This page groups all these Animal Horror movies by the type of animal featured in the movie. Movies may be listed in more than one category as applicable. You can also check out the full alphabetical list.
