10 nature-gone-wrong horror flicks if Piranha left you hungry

Horror flicks, the only genre where screaming at your TV, clutching your pillow and cursing your entire existance is considered a good time. If horror needs to be described in one sentence, then it is a genre where logic dies, phones never have signals, people somehow think spiltting up is a good idea when there is a dangerous ghost lurking around.

If there is one thing that horror flicks have taught fans, it is to always get full background before moving into a new place, believe the vision you got before getting on a plane, and never trust a doll. Because failure to do either of those things will result in either someone's demise, someone going crazy, or worse, someone getting pulled into another dimension and getting stuck there forever.

So, if you like bloody classics, heart-stopping jump scares, or teenagers making bad decisions, then you will enjoy this list of 10 nature-gone-wrong horror flicks.

1) The Birds (1963)

It is one of the best Alfred Hitchcock horror flicks. What starts as a blossoming love story between two individuals quickly turns into an episode of Man vs. Wild with our feathery friends suddenly turning on people and declaring war on humanity.

The plot follows Melanie (Tippi Hedren), who follows a boy, Mitch (Rod Taylor), to a small town in North Carolina, and quickly realizes why people leave small towns for big cities.

2) Lake Placid (1999)

Lake Placid is the answer to what every American man thinks once in their lifetime: "I think I could take on a croc." Spoiler Alert: No, you can't. Watch this horror flick to know what happens if you mess around. A motley crew of scientists, cops, and a sassy billionaire set out to investigate and kill a man-eating crocodile that has been snacking on people like churros.

If not for any other reason, watch this movie to see Betty White as a foul-mouthed old lady who is also the croc's personal meat supplier.

3) Eight Legged Freaks (2002)

Eight Legged Freaks is less of a horror flick and more of a documentary on toxic waste. The movie shows what would have if instead of Peter Parker, a spider gains radioactive powers. It is set in a mining town in Arizona where a team of a mine owner, a sheriff, and an annoying teenager come together to fight giagantic spiders that gobble up humans like tic tacs. It stars David Arquette and Scarlett Johansson.

4) The Ruins (2008)

This film is about a group of friends who decided to take a trip to Mexico and do the one thing they aren't supposed to do, follow a stranger to the ruins. Big Mistake. They ignore every warning and instinct and head to a cursed temple to touch some dangerously carnivorous plants. The worst part is the vines don't like to eat people, they simple get under the skin. Don't watch it if you have houseplants.

5) Rogue (2007)

Rogue deserves a special mention on this list of horror flicks. It's simply Jaws and Lake Placid on steroids. A group of tourists go to Australia thinking it's all Koalas and Kangaroos, but they are in for a surprise when they encounter a giagantic crocodile with an apetite for toursists. It stars Sam Worthington who got his training for Avatar from fighting crocs.

6) Black Sheep (2006)

If you thought Australia was bad for breeding killer crocs, then think again. It's neighbour New Zealand isn't far behind on this list. It may not have giagantic crocs to scare tourists, but New Zealand is thinking outside the box and using animals that no one will suspect of being blood thirsty.

In this comedy horror film, Henry, a man with sheep phobia, goes back home after 15 years to sell his share of the family home only to realize that his brother Angus has turned innocent sheep into man-eating woolly spawns of Dracula.

7) The Bay (2012)

The Bay was directed by Barry Levinson, the who directed Rain Man. In this found footage movie 4th of July celebrations fo awry when mutant water parasites decide have their own celebration inside humans by wreaking havoc in their organs.

People start meltings, fishes start glitching, and there is no way of asking for help because the phones aren't working. All this happens because some humans think it's a great idea to dump toxic waste like flowers all over the city.

8) Anaconda (1997)

Anaconda is one of the most loved nature-gone-wrong horror flicks of all time. It features a film crew who think filming in the depths of the Amazon forest is great idea. Their adventures turns into a nightmare when things start to look like an episode of Survivor.

They are being hunted by an anaconda as big as an electricity pole who eats humans inside of mice. Watch J.Lo, Ice Cube, Owen Wilson, and Jon Voight fight the giagantic serpant and fight for their survival.

9) Grizzly (1976)

As the name suggests, Grizzly is about a 15-foot grizzly bear who decide to rid the world of humans. The bear is up against a park ranger, a helicopter pilot, and a bear expert who try to kill it and save everyone from becoming a trail mix. This horror flick will keep you on your toes throughout and will make you stay away from national parks forever. Grizzly walked so that Cocaine Bear could run.

10) The Happening (2008)

The Happening takes a different approach that the rest of the horror flicks on this list. It practised consent even before it was a thing. Instead of killing people without their permission, the toxins in the air motivate them successfully to off themselves. Mark Wahlberg plays a science teacher who tries to figure out a to save himself and Zooey Deschanel from these mind-controlling toxins.
