10 Best Horror Movies on Hulu Right Now (March 2026): ‘Ready or Not’ and More

Quinn Maybrook (Katie Douglas) and her father, Glenn (Aaron Adams), move to the small town of Kettle Springs, Missouri, looking for a fresh start following the death of her mom. Katie befriends some local teens and learns that the town has fallen on hard times, attributed to the destruction of their corn syrup factory, which the community blames on a group of kids who were killed there. But it wasn’t partying teens that condemned the town of Kettle Springs: it was a murderous clown, who returns to take even more victims.

Despite the ridiculous title (it’s actually based on a young adult novel of the same name from 2020), Clown in a Cornfield is actually a solid horror movie that cleverly subverts expectations. The movie executes a masterful blend of gory kills, laugh-out-loud comedy and some surprising, even interesting ideas.
