Genre fans won’t have to wait long to feast on the madness. A global digital release is slated for late October across major streaming platforms. However, before it hits home screens, the film will make its international market debut at the 2026 American Film Market (AFM) in Los Angeles. Giallo Vibes, Paranoia, and Pasta It’s a blend of psychological suspense, razor-sharp dark comedy, and classic giallo influences. The film follows a man whose peaceful weekend devolves into absolute chaos after he murders his wife. What follows is a paranoia-fueled game of cat and mouse. However, reality keeps shifting, trust is nonexistent, and one fundamental rule remains: authentic Italian cuisine never lies. Wearing its inspirations proudly on its

Official Synopsis It’s the summer of 1998 in New York City; Sayo (Jeff Wahlberg, EUPHORIA), a soulful nightlife photographer and small-time drug dealer, is invited to a party upstate by his long-time friend and unrequited love, a movie star on the rise: Vince Marlowe (Brodie Townsend, HEARTBREAK HIGH). Together with their rowdy friend Ross (Michael Vlamis, POOLS), they drive to a remote, bucolic manor in hopes of some summer debauchery. But when they arrive, they discover that the promise of a party is actually three mysterious women – Billie (Lily Cowles, ANTEBELLUM), Wren (Nuha Jes Izman, YELLOWJACKETS) and Cata (Ching Valdes-Aran, THE EQUALIZER) – whose disturbing agenda draws the boys into a dark web of seduction and terror. Review Director Corrin Evans crafts an intriguing fear-fare feature rooted in 1990s club and art culture with Corpus. Evans and cowriter Lily Cowles — who also stars as a renowned photographer — set the discomfiting tone of the film from the opening

We’ve all sat through a karaoke cover so agonizing it felt like an actual hate crime. Now, co-directors Chris Lightbody and Robert J. Steinmiller Jr. are taking that universal nightmare and turning it into a literal body count. Making their feature directorial debut, Lightbody and Steinmiller have officially announced the world premiere of Bad Karaoke. It’s a pitch-black horror-comedy where an ambitious young band finds themselves locked in a battle for survival against a murderous, possessed karaoke machine. Safe to say, there’s a whole lot more on the line than a free round of pub shots. The film stars Lexi Underwood (Little Fires Everywhere), Case Walker (The Other Two), and singer-actor Kat Cunning (Trinkets). The Story When wedding band keyboardist Emily discovers an old karaoke machine in the back of a dive bar, she thinks it will lead to a fun-filled night of singing and bonding with her bandmates. Unfortunately, this karaoke machine seems to have a thirst for blood.

1981 was brutal. Just ask Ryan Murphy and Bret Easton Ellis. The third trailer for Ryan Murphy’s 10-episode series adaptation of The Shards, based on Bret Easton Ellis’ 2023 novel, really wants you to know how tough teenagers had it back in 1981. And, to be fair, between the cutthroat social hierarchy and an actual serial killer on the loose, they might actually have a point. Set in sunny, sinister 1981 Los Angeles, this semi-autobiographical, dark coming-of-age story follows 17-year-old Bret during his senior year at the uber-elite Buckley School. His privileged, paranoia-fueled world starts unraveling with the arrival of a mysterious new transfer student, Robert Mallory. However, Robert’s unsettling charm conveniently coincides with a brutal spree by a killer known as “The Trawler.” An All-Star Cast Igby Rigney (The Fall of the House of Usher) takes center stage as young Bret Easton Ellis. He’s joined by Homer Gere (The Agency, and yes, Richard Gere’s son), who steps into the

As summer wanes, August serves as a calm entry point before Halloween season kicks off in earnest next month. While it may be a relatively light period for major horror drops, major streaming platforms are quietly packing their libraries with a mix of original premieres, cult favorites, and franchise marathons.

They’re also unloading virtually the entire Chucky collection—ideal for anyone nostalgic for a simpler era of micro-budget plastic slayings.

His latest film, the highly anticipated cinematic adaptation of The Dog Stars, is set to hit theaters nationwide this month. Based on Peter Heller’s acclaimed 2012 novel, the film takes place in a haunting, stripped-down future. A devastating pandemic has wiped out the vast majority of human civilization.

The Story At the center of the narrative is Hig (played by Jacob Elordi). He’s a civilian pilot who survived the deadly flu that claimed his wife and destroyed the world as he knew it. Living out of an abandoned air park with a gruff, heavily armed companion and his loyal dog, Hig spends his days patrolling the skies in a 1956 Cessna. He desperately searches for signs
