And this unholy entity is impossible to outrun. The trailer opens with two friends on a dark highway, then cuts to statistics. Did you know that every year, around 130 million people go on road trips, and over 15,000 are never seen again? That’s a terrifying thought, one that would make some never hit the road again. Next, we see that one friend vanishes during a quick roadside break. This sets a chilling tone for the entire film.

Family Reunions: Now With 100% More Homicide If you were hoping for a heartwarming tale about healing old wounds over potato salad, keep walking. Is God Is isn’t interested in your feelings. It’s interested in your femoral artery. This blood-spattered, genre-bending odyssey proves that vengeance is a dish best served with Southern Gothic grit and a side of pitch-black comedy so dark it’ll leave you reaching for a flashlight. Based on Aleshea Harris’ award-winning play, the film marks her directorial debut—and she isn’t exactly “easing” into the chair. She’s coming out swinging with a cinematic cocktail that’s equal parts Spaghetti Western and Greek Tragedy, served in a glass rimmed with desert salt. Hell Hath No Fury (But These Two Do) The setup is simple: Two sisters, Anaia and Racine, receive a letter from their mother. She’s got a horrific backstory, a body full of scars, and one modest, terrifying request: find their father and end him. What follows is an

If you’ve ever looked at a chimpanzee and thought, “That looks like a delightful companion for my suburban home,” please watch Primate before you make any life-altering mistakes. Because as this film vividly demonstrates, chimps aren’t pets—they are compact, hairy engines of destruction that will treat your face like a scratch-off lottery ticket. Practical Magic and Blood-Soaked Realism Let’s talk about the absolute standout here: the special effects. In an era where everything is smoothed over with mediocre CGI, Primate goes “old-school” in the best way possible. The effects are mostly practical, and they are impressive as hell. We’re talking tactile, “I-can-almost-smell-the-copper” gore that makes the brutality feel dangerously real. And when I say gore, I mean this rabies-carrying critter literally rips someone’s jaw off, and we see it all! I actually had the chance to sit down with the Director of Photography, Stephen Murphy. We peeled back the haunting imagery from the poster and his insights into the production,

Get ready to get weird. The Sundance hit Touch Me will officially be released on Digital and Blu-ray this May. This psychosexual horror-comedy comes from the mind of writer-director Addison Heimann and promises a gooey, neon-soaked exploration of codependency and interspecies intimacy. A Very Specific Addiction The plot follows two best friends who fall under the spell of a mysterious alien narcissus creature. Touch provides a heroin-like high that makes all their anxiety vanish. However, there is a catch: he’s also a manipulative predator trying to take over the world. Trapped in a cycle of toxic healing, the duo must decide if feeling good is worth the end of humanity. The Star-Studded Cast The film features an impressive lineup of genre veterans who aren’t afraid of the strange: Olivia Taylor Dudley (The Magicians, She Dies Tomorrow), Lou Taylor Pucci (Evil Dead, Daredevil: Born Again), and Jordan Gavaris (Orphan Black, Hacks).
