8 Best Horror Movies Directed by Women in 2025
Most of 2025's horror movies have been directed by men, but women have helmed some impressive entries.
It is an exciting time to be a woman in horror. The past decade has seen women directing sleeper hits and big-budget studio films. The Substance was nominated for five Academy Awards last year, including a directing nomination for Coralie Fargeat. Other celebrated women directors of the modern age include Julia Ducournau (Titane), Jennifer Kent (The Babadook), Karyn Kusama (The Invitation), and Nia DaCosta (Candyman).
