About a year and a half ago, it was announced that Shawnee Smith of the Saw franchise had signed on to star in a horror movie called The Skulleton. That film is now ready to make its way out into the world under the title Bloodline Killer, and it’s set to receive a VOD and limited theatrical release on April 26th. With that date exactly one month away, a trailer has arrived online (our friends at Bloody Disgusting got the first look at it), and you can check it out in the embed above.
Smith is joined in the cast of Bloodline Killer by Tyrese Gibson (Morbius), Bruce Dern (The Hateful Eight), Taryn Manning (Orange Is the New Black), Damian Maffei (The Strangers: Prey at Night), Drew Moerlein (South of Hell), Alexander James Rodriguez (Bee and Puppycat), Jaime Zevallos (Cloak and Dagger), James Gaudioso (Mid-Century), and Anthony Gaudioso (What Josiah Saw...

Lightbulb Film Distribution is pleased to share the poster & trailer for new claustrophobic horror-thriller, The Seeding – which is out now on UK Digital Download. The debut feature from Barnaby Clay (multi-award-winning music video director), the film stars Scott Haze and Kate Lyn Sheil.
The World Premiere took place at Tribeca in June 2023 with the UK premiere taking place at FrightFest in August 2023.
A man trapped in a desert canyon with a mysterious woman is held captive by feral children…
Filmmaker Barnaby Clay says, “The Seeding deals with big themes, but in a small, contained way, almost like a brutal adult version of a children’s story or fable – something to bore under your skin and stick around for a while. I hope, like all great horror, it speaks some truth about human nature, even if it’s a side we’d rather not see.” The Seeding is available to own...

For a very select number of very independent productions, Tuesday July 18 will be a day to celebrate: That’s when SAG-AFTRA will give its blessing to a small but undetermined number of film shoots via interim agreements, or “waivers.” Indie producers who spoke to IndieWire are grateful for the support.
Eric B. Fleischman (“Sleight”), a producer with The Wonder Company, praised the guild’s swiftness in addressing the issue. “They don’t want all of their members not working,” he said. “They’re obviously fighting for the cause, but at the same time, people need to work, so I think it’s brilliant for them to find a way to have a sector of the industry… on a project-by-project basis to move forward.”
However, the only movies that will get approval are the ones the guild determine to be “truly independent.” That means they can’t be affiliated with any of the struck studios,...

The Seeding, written and directed by Barnaby Clay, takes audiences on a slow-burn journey into a desolate desert canyon where nightmares come to life. With minimal dialogue and a limited cast, this atmospheric horror flick thrives on subtlety and implications of evil rather than relying on jump scares or explicit gore. While it may not fully capitalize on its untapped potential, The Seeding offers an eerie exploration of relationship dynamics within a secluded and mysterious setting.
While out photographing a solar eclipse, Stone (played by Scott Haze of What Josiah Saw) stumbles upon a lost boy looking for his parents. After hours of walking away from his car and any sign of civilization, Stone too becomes lost and separated from the boy. Desperate for help and a place to rest, Stone is relieved when he finds a woman living off-the-grid in a tiny cottage home at the base of a canyon…...

Marvel's usage of mid-credits and end-credits sequences has become a cultural phenomenon. We sit attentively in our seats, reading 2nd Unit Director and Digital Effects Artist names, anticipating which superhero cameo awaits. We expect to be shocked and startled by MCU reveals — but that's a specific studio franchise strategy. Indie horror flicks don't usually embrace the tactic because what's the point? Right?
Au contraire. Let's sit down for Scariest Scene Ever storytime.
Vincent Grashaw's "What Josiah Saw" is one of Shudder's latest new additions, a homestyle Americana thriller that travels multiple genres. The kind of film without sequel intentions nor requires further explanations once the finale wraps.

As one of many people from a certain generation, Robert Patrick scared the bejesus out of me as a child. As the primary antagonist in The Terminator, where he played the T-1000 – Patrick has often been an actor attracted to the darker side of storytelling. His latest is the definition of that fact, as he takes a starring role in the chilling horror What Josiah Saw. To mark the film’s release on Shudder, we had the pleasure to speak to the man himself. A charming, affable figure we soon learnt that our childhood versions of ourselves had nothing to be scared of. We discuss with Patrick this latest project, portraying characters with sinister intentions and finding empathy within them. He also looks back across his career, whether he watches his old movies back, and on sharing them with his family. He also looks ahead, as the prolific actor still...

It took a while but Vincent Grashaw's southern gothic thriller, What Josiah Saw, has finally settled down over at Shudder. The AMC streaming service acquired the flick and will stream it later this year in North America, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. What Josiah Saw was one of my favorite films out of Fantasia last August. Building off of a harrowing performance from Robert Patrick, the thriller in four parts is a tense ride through funamentalist faith, mental health and addiction, and toxic family attachments. The less we say about it the better. After a brief hiatus in the new year What Josiah Saw still has its festival legs and will hit other festivals this month. We will keep you...

Fantaspoa 2022 Announced: "After two years of successful online editions, the 18th edition of the beloved Brazilian genre festival Fantaspoa will return to the cinemas from April 15th through May 1st. This year, attendees will discover a very different Fantaspoa from its last on-site edition (a very distant 2019): instead of its usual two venues, the fest will take place simultaneously in five cinemas, with part of its program also being available online, geo-blocked for viewers within Brazil.
The poster for this year’s festival was conceived by the festival’s art director Thalles Mourão, with the drawing from local artist Fernanda Moreira. The striking image is a mashup of two centenary anniversaries: The Modern Art Week, one of Brazil’s greatest art movements, and F. W. Murnau’s 1922 masterpiece of cinema, Nosferatu: A Symphony Of Horror.
Nosferatu will also have a very special screening on the opening night of the festival,...

Nick Stahl has been cast as a series regular opposite Demián Bichir, in Let the Right One In, Showtime’s vampire drama series, from Away creator Andrew Hinderaker, who serves as showrunner; Seith Mann, who directed the pilot and additional episodes; and Tomorrow Studios.

Trauma seems to, unfortunately, affect us all. No matter the degree of severity, no matter if you believe you’ve moved past it, trauma lingers like a bad taste in the mouth. Trauma in childhood especially can have effects that last a lifetime, and that’s exactly what director Vincent Grashaw explores in his latest film, What Josiah Saw. Written by first-time feature writer Robert Alan Dilts, the film delves into how childhood trauma manifests in people throughout their lives in different ways. It’s the type of trauma that is impossible to cure, but for the Graham siblings, they believe they can get at least some closure when they are enticed to sell the property that has their haunted past buried deep in its walls. But ridding ourselves of our trauma is never that easy, and for them, there’s no running from their past. What Josiah Saw is...

Flying largely under the radar, startup shingle Randomix Productions has shared in exclusivity a clip to Southern Gothic horror movie “What Josiah Saw,” one of the titles with the highest-profile star casts at Fantasia: Robert Patrick (“The Terminator”), Nick Stahl (“Sin City”), Scott Haze (“Child of God”) and Kelli Garner (“Lars and the Real Girl”).
“What Josiah Saw” also marks the third feature from Vincent Grashaw, whose intimate study of adolescent ordeal, “And Then I Go,” was picked up for U.S. distribution by The Orchard.
