Family Halloween Movies on Netflix 2019

If you're looking for some spooky fun with your family this Halloween season, Netflix has got you covered! One of the best family movies to watch is 'The Willoughbys' (2020). This animated film tells the story of a group of siblings who are deprived of love and care by their parents. In an effort to send them on a deadly vacation, the children put together a plot that seems sure to kill them off.

Starring Ricky Gervais as a cat narrator, Alessia Cara sings an absolute banger of a song in this unique take on family and childhood. As the story unfolds, the siblings eventually find a family of their own where they are loved and cared for. The Willoughbys' fortunes change with the arrival of their new nanny, voiced by the iconic Maya Rudolph.

While the premise may sound dark, rest assured that 'The Willoughbys' is indeed a family movie. It's an acclaimed animated film that balances adventure tale and family drama in a wonderfully entertaining way, complete with a national manhunt, faked death, and almost New Wave-like series of vignettes within the story itself.

Another great option for families this Halloween season is 'Hunt for the Wilderpeople' (2016), directed by Taika Waititi. This New Zealand-set story follows Ricky Baker, a young boy who is taken in by foster parents to help out on their farm. It's full of quirky humor and never glib in the face of its often intensely emotional material.

So grab some popcorn, gather your family around the TV, and get ready for some spooky fun with these great Halloween movies on Netflix 2019!
