Blumhouse’s modern horror icon M3GAN is back in the action-packed sequel M3GAN 2.0, which promises to be bigger, badder and bloodier. It’s now playing in theaters nationwide.
Director Gerard Johnstone and writer Akela Cooper are back for the follow-up to their 2023 film along with producers James Wan of Atomic Monster and Jason Blum of Blumhouse.
Allison Williams, Violet McGraw, Brian Jordan Alvarez, Jen Van Epps, Amie Donald, and Jenna Davis star alongside Ivanna Sakhno, Aristotle Athari, Timm Sharp, and Jemaine Clement.
Two years after M3GAN, a marvel of artificial intelligence, went rogue and embarked on a murderous rampage and was subsequently destroyed, M3GAN’s creator Gemma has become a high-profile author and advocate for government oversight of A.I. Meanwhile, Gemma’s niece Cady, now 14, has become a teenager, rebelling against Gemma’s overprotective rules.
Unbeknownst to them, the underlying tech for M3GAN has been stolen and misused by a powerful defense contractor to create a military-grade weapon known as Amelia, the ultimate killer infiltration spy. But as Amelia’s self-awareness increases, she becomes decidedly less interested in taking orders from humans. Or in keeping them around…
With the future of human existence on the line, Gemma realizes that the only option is to resurrect M3GAN and give her a few upgrades, making her faster, stronger, and more lethal. As their paths collide, the original A.I bitch is about to meet her match.

Don’t run. Don’t scream. Don’t break the rules. And, whatever you do, Please Don’t Feed the Children. The post-apocalyptic horror thriller debuted exclusively on Tubi today.
Destry Allyn Spielberg, the daughter of Steven Spielberg, makes her feature directorial debut with the Tubi Original horror movie from a script by Paul Bertino.
Set in a not-so-distant future where society contends with a pervasive virus that afflicts the entire adult population, a group of orphans flees in search of a new life, only to be taken hostage by a woman hiding a sinister secret.

The true story that inspired horror classic The Exorcist comes to the screen in The Ritual from XYZ Films, and the film is now available on Digital in the wake of a theatrical release.
Al Pacino and Dan Stevens star in The Ritual.
Sanctioned by the Church. Condemned by Satan. Based on the true story of the possession of Emma Schmidt, David Midell directs from a script he co-wrote with Enrico Natale.
Two priests, one questioning his faith and one reckoning with a troubled past, must put aside their differences to save a possessed young woman through a difficult and dangerous series of exorcisms. The film is said to be an authentic portrayal of the Schmidt case, which remains the most thoroughly documented exorcism in American history.
Ashley Greene (Twilight), Abigail Cowen (“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”), and Patricia Heaton (“Everybody Loves Raymond”) round out the cast of Midell’s The Ritual.

If you’re looking for another anxiety-inducing climb in the vein of Fall, The Sound puts a supernatural horror spin on the survival thriller model. It’s now available on VOD outlets.
In the film, “A world-class group of climbers is granted access to the Forbidden Wall, a mysterious rock wall previously closed for decades. During the group’s ascent, they come face to face with a malevolent force that quickly turns their expedition into a harrowing battle for survival hundreds of feet above the ground.”
Marc Hills, Rachel Finninger, Nicholas Baroudi (“Law & Order”), Jocelyn Hudon (“The Strain”), William Fichtner (Armageddon), Christina Kirkman (“All That”), Jolene Kay (“Bosch: Legacy”), David Clennon (The Thing), and Kyle Gass (Tenacious D) star.

Brendan Devane (The Canyonlands) writes and directs. The Smashing Pumpkins co-founder James Iha (“That ’90s Show”) composed the score for The Sound.

In The G, age isn’t a weakness — it’s a weapon. The Canadian revenge thriller was released in select theaters and on VOD today courtesy of Dark Sky Films. Watch the trailer below.
Dale Dickey (Winter’s Bone, “True Blood”) star as Ann Hunter, who retired with her husband to an American suburb 10 years ago to be near his family. But one day out of the blue they are snatched from their home by a corrupt legal guardian who believes they have hidden wealth.
Their home and assets are legally stripped from them and they are put in a prison-like eldercare facility, victims of an exploding old age industry. Trapped in a corrupt and terrifying system, The G begins to show her true mettle as she and her loyal granddaughter fight to get them out… and get revenge on the people who did this.
An original portrait of a fierce older woman in the kind of role that a woman is rarely cast in, The G was inspired by writer-director Karl R. Hearne‘s own family experience.
Romane Denis (Slaxx), Roc Lafortune (Beastly), Bruce Ramsay (Hellraiser: Bloodline), and Jonathan Koensgen (“Reacher”) round out the cast.

From directors Tom McKeith and Will Howarth (Beast), the Australian horror movie In Vitro starring Ashley Zukerman (Succession) is now available on VOD outlets.

While Layla longs for her son who is away at boarding school, Jack experiments with biotechnology that he hopes will save his family from financial ruin. But as unsettling occurrences start to plague the property, their once loving relationship begins to unravel.”
Talia Zucker (Lake Mungo) and Will Howarth (Beast) also star.

Fighting zombies with your bare hands feels especially dangerous in an outbreak, yet a Muay Thai fighter does just that for the sake of love in the new trailer for the Netflix film Ziam.
Netflix Thailand’s first action-zombie film debuts on the streaming service on July 9, 2025.
As for the plot, “In a world gripped by food shortages, a tenacious Muay Thai boxer battles a zombie outbreak inside a hospital to save his lover from the jaws of death.”
Mark-Prin Suparat stars as Singh, the former professional Muay Thai fighter willing to take on hordes with his bare hands. Nychaa-Nuttanicha Dungwattanawanich, Vayla-Wanvayla Boonnithipaisit, Johnny Anfone, Pimmada Borriruksupakorn, and Jason Young also star.
Kulp Kaljareuk directs from a script by Nut Nualpang, Weerasu Worrapot, Vatanyu Ingkavivat, and Chonnatee Pimnam.
“We’ve all seen many zombie movies, but we rarely see zombies involved in hand-to-hand combat or boxing. We wanted to explore what it’s like to fight zombies using the techniques of Muay Thai, which is known for its intensity and the use of the entire body, including elbows and knees as powerful weapons,” Director Kulp Kaljareuk explained to Netflix. “Each zombie is crafted with special makeup. No CGI was used to create raw and gory flesh. This choice helps give the zombies a visceral, physical presence that draws the audience deeper into the world.”
Practical effects and an emphasis on action sounds like Ziam may have what it takes to stand out from the crowded zombie subgenre.
The film’s title refers to Thailand’s historical name, Siam, but with a “Z” for zombies.
Watch the official trailer below, which introduces eerie zombie designs and intense martial arts action, along with new images ahead of the film’s release on July 9.

Disney brought the Haunted Mansion back to the big screen in 2023 and up next they’re developing a new movie adaptation of the Tower of Terror ride, which was originally announced back in 2021 with Scarlett Johansson attached to star. The actress reveals in a new interview that while the project has been a “hard nut to crack,” it’s finally starting to take shape.
Johansson tells Entertainment Weekly, “It’s a hard nut to crack. Harder than you think, because the ride itself, there’s some lore to it, but it’s… I don’t want to say thin, but it is, kind of!”
“That’s part of the mystery of the ride. It’s been a fun project to work on, because it’s a blue sky project,” Johansson elaborates. “It has also proved to be a hard nut to crack.
“But, we’ll crack the case of it. It’s taking shape!”
Last we heard, Josh Cooley (Toy Story 4) was writing the script.
Also known as The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, the attraction is a drop tower dark ride that was launched at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in July 1994, subsequently being added to Tokyo DisneySea, Walt Disney Studios Park, and for a time, Disney California Adventure. As explained by Wikipedia, the rides “place riders in a seemingly ordinary hotel elevator, and present the riders with a fictional backstory in which people have mysteriously disappeared from the elevator under the influence of some supernatural element many years previously.”
As you may recall, the Tower of Terror ride was turned into a made-for-television movie back in 1997, which starred Steve Guttenberg and Kirsten Dunst. It was actually Disney’s first foray into turning theme park attractions into feature films, which of course paved the way for subsequent movies including The Haunted Mansion and the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
