11 Best Meta Horror Movies That Know They're Being Watched
Although metacinema includes a wide range of incredible movies, such as 8 ½ (1963), Day for Night (1973), and The Truman Show (1998), it's at its most powerful when it comes to horror. In a genre filled with conventions and controversies, meta-references are greatly more effective. These self-referential films dissect the formulaic beats of horror, deconstructing and subverting tropes. Some poke fun at themselves, while others go in on the horror fandom. There is also a set of movies in the subgenre that lift the veil on filmmaking and the industry itself. What they all share in common is that they remind viewers of why they keep coming back to the beloved genre.
