10 More Great Teen Horror Movies (No One Ever Talks About)
9. Disturbing Behavior (1998)
Disturbing Behavior is right — this movie is disturbing in all the best ways possible. This sadly only made $17.5 million against a $15 million budget and doesn’t seem to have found a second life after its theatrical release, either. What a shame, because this is one of the best teen horrors from the '90s.
This 1998 picture stars recognizable names James Marsden and Katie Holmes and was directed by David Nutter, who was a director and producer on The X-Files, and follows the story of Steve Clark, who’s new in the town of Cradle Bay. Steve quickly realizes there’s something strange going on with his high school classmates; they’re a little too perfect, almost like there’s something he’s not supposed to know going on within their clique.
Wacky, odd, and above all addictive, Disturbing Behavior feels like a full-length X-Files episode in all the best ways possible. This is the kind of horror flick you play over and over again with your friends because it’s just so much fun. This is an entertaining gem with an ending that feels like the cherry on top of a tasty cake.
