The 6 best horror musicals of all time

by Sam Sutherland

With Halloween just around the corner — plus AUX TV’s own Shocktober weekend from October 27 to 28 — it’s time to watch horror movies. All of them.

But you’re on a music website, so it’s safe to assume you possess some sort of bias towards the musics. And because we care about you and your needs, here are the six best horror musicals to ensure you get a solid dose of righteous tunes with your exploding butts this Halloween.

6. Repo! The Genetic Opera
You haven’t experience this until you’ve seen it in a theatre with five hundred cosplaying goth teens.

5. Rocky Horror Picture Show
Of course. And shut up if you don’t like it. You know it rules.

4. Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead
Underrated, vicious, hilarious, and very, vary catchy madness from the greatest b-movie studio ever, Troma.

3. Cannibal! The Musical
Pre-South Park weirdness from your boys Matt and Trey.

2. Little Shop of Horrors
Feed me, Seymour.

1. Phantom of the Paradise.
The best musical ever made about a phantom by Brian De Palma.
