Dive Into the Trailer for the Practical FX Shark Movie ‘The Bay’

When it comes to the summer months, two things are absolute, undeniable certainties: Georgia is hot enough to melt asphalt, and Hollywood is going to dump a truckload of shark movies onto our screens. Joining the highly competitive 2026 aquatic thriller lineup, which includes Deep Water and Chum, is The Bay from Brainstorm Media. Practical Effects and Terrible Vacation Decisions The movie stars Francesca Eastwood (M.F.A., Clawfoot), but the real headline here for horror purists is behind the gills. Rather than relying entirely on dodgy, weightless CGI, The Bay will feature a fully functional animatronic shark. It was built by the practical-effects wizards at Bischoff’s. What you will be seeing is a combo of the animatronic and real beasts. Written and directed by Phil Volken, the plot keeps things lean, mean, and claustrophobic. When a tourist boat tragically sinks inside an actual, designated shark sanctuary, two best friends are forced into a brutal fight for survival as they try to

Steven Spielberg Taps Heretic and A Quiet Place Duo for Mysterious New Sci-Fi Flick

If you had “Scott Beck and Bryan Woods team up with Steven Spielberg” on your 2026 Hollywood bingo card, go ahead and collect your winnings. The filmmaking duo behind A Quiet Place and A24’s recent theological thriller Heretic are officially heading back into the cosmos. The Hollywood Reporter dropped the news that Beck and Woods are set to write and direct a brand-new, untitled, “high-concept” science fiction movie for Universal and Amblin Entertainment. And yes, the King of Sci-Fi himself, Steven Spielberg, is producing. No pressure, boys. From Iowa to the Dream Factory For a couple of lifelong friends from Iowa, Beck and Woods have turned making audiences sweat into a highly lucrative art form. Their trajectory has been nothing short of a genre fan’s dream: In 2018, they exploded onto the mainstream scene with their original spec script for A Quiet Place, teaching the world to fear stepping on creaky floorboards. Then, they steered Adam Driver through dinosaur-infested territory

Frank Grillo and Tyrese Gibson Battle Corporate Nanobots in ‘Kill Code’

The new cyberpunk thriller Kill Code is heading your way. In a grim future, the human body is treated like cheap hardware, controlled by the rich and powerful. Fortunately, some people still prefer their free will. Set in a rainy, neon-drenched dystopian America ravaged by a Second Civil War, crime has become a deadly pandemic. Enter Alpire Industries CEO and scientist Eion Prescott (Harvey Keitel), who claims to have the ultimate cure. His solution is the ONYX Program, an aggressively dystopian initiative where AI-powered watches are strapped to known criminals. Instead of tracking steps, these watches inject criminals with nanobots carrying a deadly computer virus: the titular kill code. The virus forces these tech-jacked criminals to battle each other to the death, with the bruised survivors supposedly earning redemption and their lives back. Of course, the corporation won’t be satisfied until they’ve eliminated human free will. The only thing standing in their way is a cyber-enhanced Alpire operative, played by

Spoiler-Free Reviews: MARGINALIA and BURNT FLOWERS (GenreBlast 2025)

MARGINALIA (U.S., 2025) Official synopsis: Summoned to Karnstein Abbey to serve as a mourner at the funeral of their recently deceased abbess, Sister Trista discovers a dark secret involving demons, witchcraft and killer rabbits. But Sister Trista has a secret of her own. Nunsploitation, a Hammer Films’ horror vibe, and the retro charm and surreal qualities of filmmaker Guy Maddin’s work: Writer/director/editor/cinematographer Mark Beal’s beautifully bizarre Marginalia has all this and more. This black-and-white supernatural feature will win cinephiles over with its atmosphere to spare, which includes impressive practical effects work, cool stop-motion creatures, and wonderful medieval set design, costumes, and illustrations. Composer Alexander Hellonious’s evocative score fits the proceedings perfectly. Beal kicks things off right away with one of the most imaginative demises you’re likely to see this year. The cast members do a fine job with their committed performances, led by Jessica Bell as Sister Trista. Beal does assured work at the helm, and as he did with

Don't Trust the Ranger: Psychological Thriller 'Capps Crossing: Wrong Side of Dead' Is Out Now

Capps Crossing: Wrong Side of Dead – Because Trips to the Woods Always Go So Well

If horror movies have taught us anything, it’s that celebrating your birthday deep in the wilderness is basically an open invitation to be hunted. Lionsgate’s upcoming psychological thriller, Capps Crossing: Wrong Side of Dead, is here to prove that rule once again when it arrives On Demand and Digital on July 28. Directed by Mike Stahl, the film promises plenty of tension, psychological mind games, and a stark reminder never to trust the local park staff. Surviving the Ultimate Bad Trip The plot follows Amber, whose birthday getaway with friends goes sideways faster than you can say “scenic overlook.” Enter a demented park ranger with a deeply tortured past and a sudden urge to turn their weekend into a masterclass in terror. Fortunately for Amber, she’s not your average running-and-tripping horror protagonist. She’s a stellar athlete and a brilliant social profiler—meaning she’s got the brains to match her cardio. Forced to use every tool in her survival arsenal, Amber must

7 Creepy Sports Movies to Add to Your 2026 Watchlist

Sports already flirt with horror. Think of a missed penalty, a rookie freezing under stadium lights, or a fighter trying to stand when everyone knows he should sit. The body is on the line, pride is on the line, and the crowd wants more. With CBS News’ interview with Tyriq Withers on the Jordan Peele-produced film Him, bringing football horror back into the conversation, these seven films are worth saving. Black Sunday (1977) This one does not need ghosts. Black Sunday turns the Super Bowl into a nightmare of timing, crowds, and public panic. The blimp is the image people remember, but the fear comes from the scale. Everyone is looking at the game. Almost nobody is looking up. Black Swan (2010) Black Swan makes ballet feel like combat in silk shoes. Natalie Portman plays Nina, a dancer so hungry for perfection that the line between discipline and collapse starts to disappear. The pressure feels recognizable. Coaches demand more, rivals

Legendary Producer Bill Kong Takes Us Inside the Making of ‘The Furious’ in Our Interview

When it comes to martial arts cinema, executive producer Bill Kong is an absolute titan. He’s the legendary mind behind genre-defining masterpieces like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero, and House of Flying Daggers. Now, his latest film, The Furious, stormed into theaters this weekend. And it’s already creating a massive wave of buzz world-wide. I’m referring to the balls-to-the-wall crime thriller The Furious, which we confidently crowned “the action film of the summer” in our recent review. I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Kong. We had a chat about a spectacular, high-octane feature that came to be, the grueling reality of its production, and what it takes to push modern action cinema to its absolute limit. An Unlikely Duo Directed by the masterful Kenji Tanigaki (interview), The Furious tracks two desperate men on a devastating, violent collision course with a ruthless criminal syndicate. The phenomenal Xie Miao (interview) stars as Wang Wei, an ordinary tradesman whose world
