Cold Storage (2026) Review Explore the chaos of Cold Storage where horror meets comedy in a splatter-filled adventure featuring BAFTA-winning talents.

What do you get when you combine two BAFTA Award winners, two Oscar nominees, and a TV director β€” who’s also won a BAFTA β€” making his sophomore feature film? A fungus-filled, splatterrific, goopy, gory horror-comedy, that’s what. #HorrorSky #Horror #FungusAmongUs

Send Help (2026) Review Rachel McAdam and Dylan O'Brien have their boss and employee relationship turned around completely when they get stranded on a desert island. This is Sam Raimi's glorious return to horror comedy featu...

Funny, brutal, and puts both of its main characters through real ethical paces. This is the work of a veteran horror movie director who has learned from his time away from the genre and has crafted a popcorn crowd-pleaser with a wink and a grin. Pure wicked entertainment! #HorrorSky #SamRaimi

Presence (2025): Review Presence is a languid drama from the perspective of a ghost, crafted by Steven Soderbergh. The ending is a heartbreaking haymaker. Have Patience!

It’s not going to satisfy the gore-hounds, but it might just be the perfect film to watch with someone who isn't into blood+guts jump scare horror, but is up for something full of tension and menace. #HorrorSky #HorrorFamily #Ghosties

Whistle (2025) Review Get ready for Whistle (2025), a suspenseful horror film filled with engaging characters and unexpected thrills.

Crack open your Final Destination franchise, It Follows (2014), and Smile 2 (2024) and pour them all into the blender. What comes out is a well-oiled, decently entertaining horror smoothie that somehow forgets to add its most interesting ingredient. #MissedOpportunity #HorrorSky #HorrorFamily

With Infuencers, writer/director Kurtis David Harder comes back to his Influencer… dare I say it? Franchise?! 🀞🀞
And he’s kicking things up a notch. Count this among the rarities where the sequel is better than the original. Just make sure you watch them in order.

Digital illustration of an anthropomorphic champagne bottle, green glass, yellow label, gold neck ring and gold foil wrapped around the neck. The bottle is down on its little knees. The label is just an insane, furious face, mouth wide in rage and frustration, furious drool running down the bottle below. Is holding its tiny fists aloft as it lands back to howl at the implacable heavens and one fist grips a filled glass champagne flute. A cork is nowhere to be seen as, in its impotent fury, the bottle has blown its top and a frothy gout of sparkling wine is erupting out through the foil wrapped neck. Manic, messy red lettering fills most of the blue background reading β€˜Maybe it will happen today’.

Kombucha (2025): Review Kombucha successfully graduates from its short film roots to the feature film big leagues. with its mix of body horror and dark economic satire.

I’ll bet you never really trusted Kombucha, right? This is a little indie film that clawed its way up from the short film stage. It definitely succeeded in broadening the short-film premise into something bigger. #SupportIndieHorror #HorrorSky

Him (2025): Review Him (2025): Given a chance to be a breakout sports horror film, Him fumbles its opportunity. It manages to be both stylish and dull at the same time.

False start. Production team. Five-yard penalty. Retry third down. Him (2025) is a rare commodity: a sports horror film, and sadly, it fumbled the opportunity away. #SportsHorror #HorrorSky #HorrorFamily

The Long Walk (2025): Review The Long Walk takes follows a group of young men competing in a marathon walk that ends with one winner and 49 corpses. A Stephen King Story.

The Long Walk is a simple, well-executed story. It oozes Stephen King’s trademark pop-horror tropes: normal people pitted against long odds, with grotesque consequences. Brutal, gritty, and showcasing some stellar performances by David Jonsson and Cooper Hoffman. #HorrorSky #StephenKing #Walking

Dangerous Animals (2025): Review Dangerous Animals puts a new twist on the serial killer trope, with a psychopath who films captive humans as shark bait for kicks.

This is 100% a fun popcorn thriller. If you are looking for a night of cat-and-mouse theater, this is an excellent pick. For fans of shark horror, this one's a cut above. It doesn’t rise to the raw terror of Open Water or the pinnacle of Jaws, but it should put a smile on your face. #HorrorSky

The revisioning of the Predator franchise is in full swing and continues to impress. A rite of passage movie that oozes with warrior ethos. It's a fantastic creature feature harkening back to the days of Ray Harryhausen! #CreatureFeature #HorrorSky #Yautja
