Police Station Horror Movie Best Online

Often, the station is haunted because of something the police did—or failed to do.

Here are the best police station horror movies that define the subgenre. 1. Last Shift (2014)

Police station horror movies remind us that no matter how many locks or bars you have, they only work if the monster is on the other side. When the walls start closing in, the badge doesn't mean much.

The horror usually comes from the outside trying to get in, or something locked inside that shouldn't be.

This Irish-British horror film takes place in a remote police station where a mysterious stranger (Liam Cunningham) is brought in. Soon, the secrets of everyone in the station—both the cops and the criminals in the cells—begin to manifest in violent, supernatural ways. It’s a grim, atmospheric "judgment day" story that uses the jail cells as a metaphor for the characters' own sins. 5. Baskin (2015)

If Last Shift sounded interesting, Malum is its bigger, bloodier reimagining. Directed by the same filmmaker (Anthony DiBlasi), Malum expands on the lore of the original cult. It trades some of the subtle atmosphere of the first film for visceral, high-budget body horror and demonic imagery. It’s a "maximalist" take on the haunted precinct concept. 4. Let Us Prey (2014)

If you want pure, terrifying ghosts and atmosphere, start with . If you prefer a gritty, "us against the world" survival story, go with Assault on Precinct 13 .
