🎥 NEW MOVIE TRAILERS:
Home sweet horror!
🎥 Scream 7 — First Trailer
(in theaters Feb 27th)
After some behind-the-scenes drama, Scream 7 finally puts the mask back where it belongs — on Sidney Prescott’s doorstep. Following the franchise shake-up that saw Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega exit amid controversy and creative clashes, Neve Campbell officially returns to the series she helped build, this time as a mother whose teenage daughter has also caught Ghostface’s attention.
With original co-creator Kevin Williamson stepping into the director’s chair and Courteney Cox reprising her role as reporter Gale Weathers, the latest chapter goes full circle — diving into Sidney’s legacy, motherhood, and her cursed connection to the mask.
Also starring Isabel May as Sidney’s daughter and Joel McHale as her cop husband, Scream 7 will be slashing into theaters February 27, 2026. Expect plenty of meta mayhem, nostalgic callbacks, and a fresh round of blood-soaked phone calls as a new killer brings the horror home — because in the world of Scream, peace and quiet never last long.
Class warfare never looked this funny.
🎥 Fackham Hall — Trailer
(in theaters Dec 5th)
The grand tradition of the spoof comedy is making a comeback. After years missing in action, this summer’s Naked Gun remake reminded audiences that sometimes the best way to celebrate movies and TV is by lovingly making fun of them.
Now comes Fackham Hall, a new British period comedy that pokes fun at Downton Abbey and reimagines it through the absurdist lens of Airplane! and Monty Python. It’s posh, preposterous, and delightfully improper.
Directed by Jim O’Hanlon (Trying, Catastrophe) and co-written by Jimmy Carr, Patrick Carr, and the Dawson Bros., the film lampoons the manners and madness of the English elite, complete with tea scandals, secret affairs, and plenty of class-clashing chaos.
When petty thief Eric Noone (Ben Radcliffe) cons his way into service at a grand English manor, he quickly finds himself entangled with the lady of the house (Thomasin McKenzie), the incompetent aristocrats (Damian Lewis and Katherine Waterston), and a murder mystery that spirals into utter farce. Add in Tom Felton, Emma Laird, Tom Goodman-Hill, and Jimmy Carr as a very confused bishop, and you’ve got a full plate of posh pandemonium.
Fackham Hall opens in theaters December 5th.
Del Toro brings Shelley’s nightmare back to life... and makes it his own.
🎥 Frankenstein — Final Trailer
(on Netflix Nov 7th)
Guillermo del Toro’s long-awaited passion project Frankenstein finally lurches to life. And fittingly, it’s less about lightning bolts and more about the emotional aftermath of playing God. Oscar Isaac stars as Dr. Victor Frankenstein, haunted by his creation (Jacob Elordi) and the guilt that follows. Del Toro’s signature touch is all over it: gothic grandeur, haunting visuals, aching humanity, and monsters that mirror the men who made them.
Inspired by his complex relationship with his father and his own reflections on parenthood, the Oscar-winning Mexican filmmaker aims to infuse Mary Shelley’s Gothic classic with deeply personal weight—exploring creation, responsibility, and the fragile hope for forgiveness. While some critics find it more visually dazzling than emotionally deep, it seems to be pure del Toro in its poetic melancholy and tragic beauty.
With a stellar supporting cast including Mia Goth, Christoph Waltz, and Charles Dance, Frankenstein reanimates the age-old question of who the real monster truly is: the creator or the creation. Streaming worldwide on Netflix this Friday, November 7th.
The Old West forgives nothing. Neither does he.
🎥 Frontier Crucible — Trailer
(in theaters and on VOD Dec 5th)
In a land where mercy is as scarce as water, Frontier Crucible pits man against nature, conscience, and the ghosts of the Old West.
In this gritty new indie western, Myles Clohessy stars as Merrick Beckford, a battle-hardened frontiersman hired by the Union Army to escort a wagon of medical supplies through deadly terrain crawling with Apache warriors, bandits, and betrayal. His uneasy allies? Three outlaws who’d sooner shoot each other than share a fire.
Adapted from Harry Whittington’s Desert Stake-Out and directed by Travis Mills (Terror on the Prairie), the film captures the dusty brutality of a classic western with a modern edge. Also featuring Mary Stickley, Zane Holtz, and Armie Hammer (in his first screen role in years), along with William H. Macy, and Thomas Jane, it seems the Old West just got a little meaner.
Frontier Crucible hits theaters and VOD December 5th.

📺 NEW TELEVISION TRAILERS:
The battle for Hawkins ends here.
📺 Stranger Things 5 — Trailer
(on Netflix Three Volumes: on Nov 26, Dec 25 and Dec 31)
It’s been nearly a decade since Stranger Things first flipped Netflix upside down, turning small-town horror and ‘80s nostalgia into a global phenomenon. Now, three years after Season 4 left us hanging, the Hawkins crew returns older, wiser, and more battle-scarred for the show’s fifth and final season.
Matt and Ross Duffer close the curtain on their pop-culture juggernaut with a darker, heavier chapter that reunites Millie Bobby Brown, Sadie Sink, Finn Wolfhard, Joe Keery, Maya Hawke, David Harbour, Winona Ryder, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazzo and more for one last showdown with Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower). The Duffers are joined this time by The Shawshank Redemption’s Frank Darabont, who directs two episodes, and Terminator legend Linda Hamilton, dialing up the retro nostalgia even further.
Split into three event-style drops—Nov. 26, Dec. 25, and Dec. 31—Netflix is even giving the feature-length finale a theatrical run starting on New Year’s Eve.
It’s the end of an era for both the series and the streamer that built its empire on it. Stranger Things may be bowing out, but expect one final binge-worthy blast of supernatural mayhem, friendship, and fireworks to close out 2025.
The Gods aren’t done with Ashur yet. ‘Cuz blood never dries in Rome.
📺 Spartacus: House of Ashur — Trailer
(on STARZ Fri, Dec 5th)
Death may be permanent everywhere else, but not so in the sand-soaked, sword-swinging world of Spartacus. More than a decade after his demise, Nick E. Tarabay’s fan-favorite schemer Ashur is back from the dead — or at least from the writers’ room — in Spartacus: House of Ashur, a brand-new STARZ limited series that resurrects the blood-soaked saga with an alternate-timeline twist.
Once a cunning ex-gladiator with a knack for survival and betrayal, Ashur now runs his own gladiator stable, ruling with charm and venom. But his power is tested when a fearless newcomer, Achillia (Tenika Davis), becomes the arena’s first female gladiator... and soon, his biggest threat.
Created by Spartacus mastermind Steven S. DeKnight and co-starring Graham McTavish, Ivana Baquero, and Claudia Black, the series dives headfirst into a world of violence, vengeance, and volcanic ego. Expect all the blood, betrayal, and backstabbing you remember, just with a few new scars.
Spartacus: House of Ashur premieres Friday, December 5th on STARZ.

📺 The Creep Tapes: Season 2 — Trailer
(on Shudder/AMC+ Fri, Nov 14th)
Ever get that uneasy feeling meeting a stranger from Craigslist? The Creep Tapes turns that gut-level fear into a pure nightmare. The Shudder original series from Mark Duplass and Patrick Brice expands their brilliantly unsettling Creep universe, proving once again that the scariest monsters are the ones who smile, shake your hand, and say they just want to “film a little something.”
Duplass returns as the disturbingly friendly Peachfuzz, a camera-wielding sociopath whose awkward charm masks something far darker. Each new “tape” unearths another chilling encounter, blending found-footage intimacy with Duplass’s uniquely disarming menace.
With guest stars David Dastmalchian, Katie Aselton, and Robert Longstreet stepping into the crosshairs, Season 2 promises more laughs-that-turn-to-screams and dread you can’t look away from.
