If You’re a Horror Fan, Get to Los Angeles as Soon as Possible

Horror films rarely get their due at the Academy Awards, but at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures? They’re about to kill it. This weekend, the Los Angeles museum opens its next major exhibition, “The Horror Show,” and it features almost 400 objects from almost 200 horror movies released over the past 100 or so years. It’s absolutely incredible.

Think of your favorite horror movie, and it’s probably in there. The classics? Of course. Alien, Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, Silence of the Lambs, Frankenstein, etc. Newer stuff? Sure, they’ve got ’em. Saw, Midsommar, The Nun, Terrifier, It. What about slightly cultier stuff? That’s there too. They Live, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, In a Violent Nature, Bride of Chucky.

And then there are pieces that you can’t even believe you’re in the presence of. Jamie Lee Curtis’ script from Halloween. A prosthetic worn by Gunnar Hansen in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. The chair and teacup from Get Out. The list goes on and on. And as amazing as it all is, for me, I was most blown away by a computer. More on that in a second.

The exhibit is broken down into six different galleries, each separated by a long hallway of iconic movie posters. There’s “Gothic,” “Psychological,” “Science,” “Slasher,” “Religion,” and “Ghosts.” Below, we’ll give you just a few images from each, which barely even scratch the surface of this magnificent collection.

To avoid crowds a bit, I skipped the first five rooms and ran to the last one.
