2016 is coming to an end, which means another year of cinematic brilliance is coming to a close. This year was full of record breaking movies such as Finding Dory, Suicide Squad and Deadpool; and there are even more to come. Here are five movies to watch before the end of 2016:

5. Bye Bye Man

This movie is supposed to be utterly scary. Three college kids move to an old house off campus, and a supernatural entity known as the "Bye Bye Man" gets released. He preys on them and others around them, and it's up to the kids to protect each other from reaching a deadly fate. Rated PG-13 and being released December 9th, be prepared to be scared.

4. The Edge of Seventeen

Staring Hailee Steinfeld and Woody Harrelson, this movie (rated R), recieved a 7.7 out of 10 on IMDB. It is a comedic satire about a 17 year old female's life. The tagline is, "You're only young once... is it over yet?" It's about a teenager named Nadine, who is awkward and socially strange, and life only becomes harder when her best friend starts dating her popular older brother. Being released on November 18th, packed houses are expected.

3. Why Him?

This movie will be one to remember. Staring James Franco and Bryan Cranston, this is a comedy that you don't want to miss. Over the holidays, a father, his wife and his son go to visit their daughter at Stanford; where they meet her billion boyfriend. A rivalry then forms between the father and the boyfriend, and the movie follows them as they continue to challenge and compete against one another. Being released December 23rd, this movie is sure to bring humor and enjoyment to your family this holiday season.

2. Moana

This Disney movie has been anticipated for as long as I can remember. After years of begging from Disney fans, they finally promised a Princess of color; and that movie is finally here. The animated feature stars Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (as Demi-God Maui) and Hawaiian native Auli'i Cravalho (as Moana). The only released information is that Moana's family is in need, so she sets off on an epic journey with Maui. Being released November 23rd, this highly anticipated movie is projecting a $400 million box office earning. Also, with Lin-Manuel Miranda (the creator of Alexander Hamilton on Broadway) producing the songs, it will come as no shock to audiences.

1. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

I have waited so long for this movie! I'm a huge fan of all things Harry Potter and the world of Witchcraft and Wizardry! When I heard a prequel was being made and that Eddie Redmayne was staring, I became even more enthralled within it all. The movie follows Newt Scamander's monster adventures in New York's secret world of wizardry, 70 years before Harry Potter read about them in his school books. Written by J.K Rowling herself, this movie is sure to bring in a new generation to the wizarding world! Being released November 18th, expect nothing less than a packed house of people who preordered their tickets.
