‘PG: Psycho Goreman’ Lands Exclusively On Shudder This May

The highly-buzzed about horror-comedy PG: Psycho Goreman (reviews here and here) makes its exclusive Shudder premiere this May following its release on DVD. In PG: Psycho Goreman, siblings Mimi and Luke unwittingly resurrect an ancient alien overlord who was entombed on Earth millions of years ago after a failed attempt to destroy the universe.

Rose Williams Talks ‘The Power’ And Its Message To Women In An Interview

This April, writer-director Corinna Faith‘s (The Innocents) The Power will premiere exclusively on Shudder. Ahead of its release, we sat down with the oh-so-talented lead actress Rose Williams to discuss the film (which we gave a glowing review), its making, and its important messages. Rose, who has also starred in films such as Curfew, A Quiet Passion, Misfits, and the Netflix original series “Medici,” absolutely nailed her role in The Power, delivering a powerful and emotional performance that left me impressed. So of course, I had to talk to her. In the film, as Britain prepares for electrical blackouts to sweep across the country, trainee nurse Val (Rose Williams) arrives for her first day at the crumbling East London Royal Infirmary. With most of the patients and staff evacuated to another hospital, Val is forced to work the night shift, finding herself in a dark, near-empty building.
