HORROR fans have found their perfect blood-curdling Halloween flick on Netflix.

Old People, directed by Andy Fetscher, has shaken viewers to their core, leaving them way more frightened than they ever imagined they would be.

The sinister film is about a woman who travels back to her hometown with her two children for her sister's wedding.

But in a sadistic twist, she find herself defending her family against blood-seeking pensioners.

And while most horror movies have a chilling twist, it seems as though this English adaptation of a German shocker has taken things to an even darker level, leaving viewers scared.

Taking to Twitter, one viewer wrote: "Not entirely sure why I’m still watching It’s creepy, disgustingly horrifying, sadistic, and just messed up."

Another viewer said: "I'm watching #oldpeople on Netflix and I truly have never been more disturbed."

A third added: "#OldPeople on #Netflix is nasty asf. Being more brutal than I was expecting it to be."

While some reviews of the film have been favourable, others have been less than impressed.

One reviewer gave it a rating of two out of ten and said: "This is bargain basement from beginning to end."

The added: "But what follows is cheap, grey, too dark, entirely generic, with the oldsters pretty much depicted as zombies. Some violence, plenty of goo and gross-out moments, but zero suspense or viewer involvement."

Meanwhile another reviewer found the film, which was released last year, utter diabolical. They said: " A bunch of old German people running around and killing everyone in sight. Its not new or a fresh take on a zombie apocalypse, Its just plane out lame."
