Horror nominees this year include “Wednesday,” “The Last of Us” and “Yellowjackets,” as well as the straight-to-Hulu Predator movie Prey!

Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, last year’s Prey has been nominated for “Outstanding TV Movie” at the 2023 Emmy Awards, eligible due to its direct-to-streaming release strategy.
