A Family Is Attacked In The New Exclusive Clip From The Road Rage Horror ‘Tailgate’

This August buckle up for the Dutch thriller Tailgate, in which a family’s road trip turns into a terrifying nightmare. We’ve got an exclusive in which the family is attacked by a stranger following a road rage-induced event. In Tailgate (aka Bumperkleef), Hans, his wife, and two young children hit the highway on a trip to visit family.

New Fright Filled Trailer Arrives For Neill Blomkamp’s ‘Demonic’

We’ve got the new fright-filled trailer for Neill Blomkamp‘s highly-anticipated horror film, Demonic, in theaters this August. From the director of District 9, Elysium, and Chappie, comes Demonic, in which “A young woman unleashes terrifying demons when supernatural forces at the root of a decades-old rift between mother and daughter are ruthlessly revealed in this horror-thriller.”. Carly Pope (Elysium), Chris William Martin (The Age of Adaline, Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem, TV’s “The Vampire Diaries”), and Michael Rogers (TV’s “Siren”, “The Blacklist”, “Supernatural”) star in this supernatural horror.
