Nothing brings on the cozy fall vibes like a good old movie night. And if you're feeling nostalgic, there’s no better era to dive into than the ’90s! Whether you’re in the mood for laughs, thrills, or heartwarming moments, this list has a little something for everyone. So, grab a blanket, make some popcorn, and get ready to rewind to a simpler time with these 7 perfect-for-fall ’90s movies.
Selena (1997)
Nothing says “Latino classic” like Selena! This movie follows the life of Selena Quintanilla, the Queen of Tejano music, whose songs, style, and heart still influence the world today. Jennifer Lopez brought Selena to life in a way that gave everyone chills, and the movie has become an absolute classic in the Latino community (and beyond!). Between the great music, Selena’s infectious joy, and pure cultural pride, this is the perfect film to warm your heart during the fall. Unfortunately, we all know how it ends, but Selena’s life is worth celebrating and this movie is a good way to do that.
The Craft (1996)
Who doesn’t love a good teen witch movie? The Craft follows four high school friends who form a coven and start experimenting with magic—only to realize that playing with supernatural forces comes with major consequences. This cult classic is edgy, mysterious, and all kinds of spooky. Plus, it’s bursting with ’90s style and attitude to make you want to bring back chokers and dark lipstick.
My Family / Mi Familia (1995)
This heartfelt classic is a beautiful multi-generational story that follows a Mexican-American family over several decades. My Family captures the immigrant experience, family bonds, and the struggles and triumphs of maintaining cultural identity in the U.S. You’ll laugh, cry, and probably call your loved ones after watching it. It’s one of those films that gives you all the feels and triggers the nostalgia, so be ready for that.
Clueless (1995)
If you’re in the mood for something a little lighter (but totally iconic), Clueless is the ultimate ’90s comfort movie. Follow Beverly Hills teen Cher Horowitz as she navigates friendship, love, and a few makeover projects, all while serving fashion inspo that still feels relevant today. It’s funny, charming, and endlessly quotable, and it captures all the ridiculous fun of high school in the ’90s. The witty banter and playful rivals-to-lovers romance will also hit the spot for a feel-good night in. Plus, who doesn’t love Paul Rudd?
Practical Magic (1998)
Practical Magic brings all the fall vibes you could possibly need. This cozy, mystical movie follows two sisters who come from a family of witches. While they try to escape their family’s supernatural past, they ultimately embrace their powers to protect themselves and the people they love. It’s got romance, sisterhood, and just enough magic to make it a seasonal favorite.
The Addams Family (1991)
No fall movie list can be complete without The Addams Family. This quirky, spooky movie brings the iconic Addams family to life with their dark sense of humor and love for all things creepy. Raul Julia and Anjelica Huston are perfect as Gomez and Morticia (truly unbeatable performances), and Christina Ricci as Wednesday is pure gold. The dark humor and gothic vibe make this one a fun, lighthearted way to embrace the spooky side of fall, long after Halloween.
The Sixth Sense (1999)
If you’re in the mood for a movie that’ll make you think and also scare you a little, The Sixth Sense is the way to go. This supernatural thriller follows a young boy who can “see dead people” and the psychologist trying to help him understand it. The movie’s twist ending is unforgettable, and it’s just eerie enough to give you chills without being too scary to watch alone. It’s a great option for a cozy yet thrilling movie night, so create the right ambiance for it and enjoy the experience.
Now you’re ready to grab your favorite snack, snuggle up, and enjoy some of the best movies the 90s have to offer.
