Author-type Jack Russo (writer/director Joe Hollow) has got it tough all over… he’s got writer’s block like a mother fucker, and his marriage to his wife, Sienna (legendary Scream Queen Debbie Rochon), has seen better days. So, to try and get their life and Jack’s work back on point, the couple schlep out to a remote cabin which goes South rather quickly once Jack checks out a mysterious videotape he receives in the mail.

Sienna falls sway to the dark influence as well, and soon their paths cross with a woman named Vivienne (August Kyss), who just so happens to have had major family problems that leads to a Faustian deal with an entity known as the Death Dealer that may spell

HBO MaxMoviesNewsStreaming TVThrillerTrailers

From Producer M. Night Shyamalan Comes the Max Original Thriller ‘Caddo Lake’

This October, the Max Original film Caddo Lake, from producer M. Night Shyamalan (Trap) and writer-directors Celine Held and Logan George (known for Servant), will unleash chills, thrills, and haunting mysteries. Caddo Lake plays out against the haunting but stunning backdrop of the Southern bayou and back roads lined with cypress trees. It follows a series of past deaths and disappearances that come to light when an eight-year-old girl vanishes mysteriously. Long-buried truths and newly surfaced mysteries will forever alter the history of a broken family and those around them. The story’s inspiration was born from a single photograph discovered online of the real Caddo Lake, which filmmakers Celine Held and Logan George became captivated by. This led the two to make numerous visits to the cypress forest, which straddles the border of Texas and Louisiana, leading to the film being shot over 2021 and 2022 in and around the town of Karnak, Texas.

Spoiler-Free Reviews: MEMBERS CLUB and THE DEAD THING (Pigeon Shrine FrightFest)

MEMBERS CLUB Official synopsis: Wet Dreams, a middle-aged male stripper group have hit rock bottom. After a string of disastrous gigs, the gang considers disbanding. Alan (Dean Kilbey), the group’s happy-go-lucky front man, takes over the business and books the boys a lucrative and mysterious gig in rural Essex. But when the group arrive at the desolate club, their night quickly takes a dark turn when they find themselves tangled up in a plot to raise a murderous 16th century witch from the dead. The humor is Rabelasian and the gory dismembering of male genitalia is prominent in writer/director Marc Coleman’s horror comedy Members Club (U.K., 2024). The film is an overall fun romp that makes its well-past-their-prime male strippers a rather likable bunch for whom it is easy to cheer, and to hope for their survival. Members Club boasts additional heart in its family drama between front-man Alan (Dean Kilbey) and his daughter Daisy (Barbara Smith). The practical effects
