This summer, Investigation Discovery (ID) is leaning into the eerie chill of the deep with its new six-part series, “Bodies in the Water.” Premiering Wednesday, June 2 at 10/9c, the show explores how rivers, lakes, and coastlines serve as both a killer’s accomplice and a detective’s greatest witness.

It’s officially “Shark Girl Summer.” As if the digital depths weren’t already crowded enough with Netflix’s Thrash and The Asylum’s Shark Thrash, a new contender is swimming into the Cannes market. Kate Beckinsale and Katherine McNamara are officially set to lead the high-stakes survival thriller, White. Directed by horror veteran Jake West (Evil Aliens) and penned by cult comic creator Dan Schaffer (Dogwitch), the film promises to be more than your average “stay out of the water” cautionary tale. A Very Bad Day at the Office The story centers on Willa. She’s a struggling actress who finally gets her big break—only to have it turn into a literal disaster. While traveling overseas for a shoot with a co-star, her private jet goes down in the middle of the Pacific.

If you thought the most dangerous thing in Orange County was a property tax hike, think again. Justin Long and Iris Apatow are currently in negotiations to star in Stung, a survival thriller that proves even a luxury mansion can’t keep out a swarm with a grudge. The project reunites Long with director Colin Minihan, who recently put the actor through the wringer in the genre-bending Coyotes. VMI Worldwide is currently shopping the film to global buyers at Cannes, presumably with a side of antihistamines. The film is produced by Andre Relis and Jib Polhemus, marking their third feature together after the Josh Lucas-led The Night Driver. Home Invasion (With Wings) Set against a backdrop of suburban isolation and that specific brand of “OC” paranoia, Stung follows four teenage girls whose innocent sleepover turns into a tactical nightmare. The antagonist? A massive, unrelenting swarm of Africanized Killer Bees has taken over their high-end fortress. It’s a classic “trapped-in-a-box” scenario, but

If you thought the scariest thing about a newborn was the 3:00 AM diaper changes, think again. Breaking Glass Pictures has announced the North American release of Nesting, a haunting psychological thriller from director Chloé Cinq-Mars that gives “sleep training” a terrifying new meaning. Home (Un)Sweet Home Nesting (French with English subtitles) follows Pénélope (Rose-Marie Perreault), a new mother who is dealing with the standard “bundle of joy” package: postpartum depression, crushing sleep deprivation, and the lingering trauma of her sister’s death. As the boundary between dreams and reality begins to dissolve—as it tends to do when you haven’t slept since the mid-2020s—Pénélope falls into a paranoid spiral. It’s an intimate, suffocating look at identity and mental health that suggests the most dangerous thing in the house isn’t the unanchored bookshelf, but the fragility of the human mind. Award-Winning Pedigree This isn’t just another jump-scare flick; it’s a critically acclaimed slow-burn. After making its World Premiere at the Fantasia Film

If you thought the “Living Dead” family tree couldn’t get any more tangled, grab a shovel. While Dan O’Bannon’s 1985 classic The Return of the Living Dead is a punk-rock zombie masterpiece, it all actually started as a novel by John A. Russo. He’s the man who co-wrote the original 1968 Night of the Living Dead with George A. Romero. Now, Russo is returning to his original literary roots. Production is officially in full swing on Rebirth of the Living Dead, a movie that serves as a direct sequel to Russo’s 1978 novel. Forget the slapstick of the 80s movies; this is a “brutal continuation” of the Russo-style undead mythology. Just Say No to “Trioxin Trash” In a move that feels like a PSA gone horribly wrong, the film introduces a street drug called “Trioxin Trash.” Apparently, the side effects include a mild case of “total cellular reanimation” and a sudden, insatiable craving for grey matter. The story follows a

Cannes’ Un Certain Regard section just got a major vibe check. The world premiere of Jane Schoenbrun’s third feature, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, kicked off with the kind of chaos that usually signals a future cult classic. The screening ended with a tearful Schoenbrun hugging stars Hannah Einbinder and Gillian Anderson, and a six-minute standing ovation from the audience. In other words, it was a good night for the cast and crew. It also signals that you can expect a killer film (in more ways than one). The Meta-Slasher We Deserve Produced by Mubi, the film is a queer slasher that functions as a sharp, bloody middle finger to Hollywood’s obsession with “woke” reboots of dormant IP. The story follows an enthusiastic young director (Einbinder) tasked with resurrecting the long-dead Camp Miasma franchise. Her first stop: the original film’s star (Gillian Anderson), a reclusive legend living in a shroud of mystery. Naturally, the two women spiral into
