"Inside" tells the story of a pregnant woman terrorized in her own home by an unknown female assailant who's not after money or jewelry - she wants the woman's unborn baby. So it's no shocker that the bloodiest film on this list comes to us from France. No one can make a disturbing film quite like the French. So here is a list of some of the best home invasion movies - not necessarily the scariest, the twistiest, or the goriest - but the most solid entries in an often shaky genre.

It's the spine-tingling feeling of "This could actually happen," that makes them so uncomfortable to watch. Home invasion movies are a very specific sub-category of the horror genre that derive their scares not from supernatural menaces like ghosts or vampires, but from a very human threat. This Friday will see the wide release of "You're Next", a home invasion thriller/comedy that has been garnering rave reviews on the festival circuit. ![]()
