Freakycast is made by horror fans, for horror fans.
This app comes from the same place as every late-night recommendation spiral, every overstuffed watchlist, and every "you need to see this" text. We love horror films, and Freakycast is our way of sharing that obsession with other people who do too.
Horror has always inspired a certain kind of person: the friend who keeps a running list of deep cuts, the one who can argue for three different versions of Nosferatu, the one who somehow always knows which possession movie is secretly great. Freakycast is for that person.
We wanted a place where fans could show their taste by ranking the horror that matters to them. Movies and TV series each get their own living community canon. Less corporate consensus, more genuine horror brain.
We're in beta, which means changes are part of the fun. We're still shaping features, tightening the experience, and learning from the people using it. If something gets sharper, faster, or weirder in a good way, that's the point.
How it works
Build your Freakycast
Order the horror movies and TV series that define your taste, then publish when the list feels right.
Shape the community charts
Published rankings with at least 10 titles in that media contribute positional points to its community Top 100. Shorter rankings remain shareable.
Add an editorial layer
Signal gives Freakycast room for updates, interviews, release notes, and broader horror-community coverage.
Why we made this
We made Freakycast because horror fandom deserves its own space to breathe. Horror fans do not watch the genre casually. We collect favorites, defend forgotten sequels, trade recommendations, and build personal canons around the films that got under our skin.
This app is meant to help people share that energy. Whether you are ranking slashers, collecting folk horror essentials, documenting first watches, or sending a friend a list for tonight, the goal is the same: give fans a home for their own voice and taste.
What you can do here
Freakycast is built around a few simple things horror fans actually want to do.
- Cast your favorite movies and TV series with your own Freakycast rankings.
- Publish at least 10 titles in a media ranking to contribute positional points to its community chart.
- Keep a Horror Queue, track watched titles, and make custom lists.
- Publish ratings and reviews that help other fans discover what to watch.
- Share profiles, rankings, and lists with clean public URLs.
- Read Signal posts for updates, editorial, and release communication.
How the rankings work
These lists are curated by horror fans through their personal Freakycast rankings. Each member can publish an ordered list of up to 100 titles. Published lists with at least 10 titles contribute to the community chart; private drafts do not.
First place earns 100 points, second place earns 99, and so on down to 1 point for 100th place. We add those points across contributing lists to calculate each title's Freakycast score. This is a points total, not a star rating. The ranking count shows how many contributing lists include that title.
Each chart displays up to 100 eligible titles, ordered by total points. Ties are resolved by first-place votes, ranking count, then lower summed ranking positions, followed by TMDB rating, TMDB vote count, and title name. Eligible titles with no contributing rankings may appear below scored titles while the community grows.
The charts change as members publish, update, or unpublish their lists. Movies and TV series have separate charts; year filters show the highest-ranked titles within each period.
What kind of horror app this is
We want Freakycast to feel like it belongs to people who really love this genre. That means keeping the app opinionated in the right ways without sanding off all the personality.
- Horror-first: this is not a general movie app with horror tucked in a corner.
- Fan-driven: rankings, profiles, lists, and reviews should carry real taste.
- Mobile-friendly: the best parts of the app should work just as well from the couch.
- Beta-minded: we expect to keep learning, refining, and adding better ideas.
The boring but important credits
Freakycast combines activity from inside the app with third-party movie metadata so the catalog is useful from day one. TMDB provides a large share of the title metadata and imagery used across the experience.
That credit matters. If you care about film data, you should know and support the work TMDB does for movie fans and developers everywhere.
