Can Christians Watch Horror Movies?

Are horror movies off limits for Christians, or is it a matter of personal conviction? In this episode, Mark Dickey and Pastors Burt Miller and Josh Dupiche scary movies, and faith. They consider Romans 14, Philippians 4:8, and the difference between depicting evil and endorsing it. The discussion also touches on bad theology in supernatural stories, the influence of the creator’s worldview, and how to tell the difference between something spiritually harmful and something that simply makes you uncomfortable. No “one size fits all” verdict here; just a call to discernment, charity, and care in how we treat fellow believers who see things differently.
