Coming off of Terrifier 3 we’re insanely excited to bring to you the incredibly nasty Argentinian exorcism horror movie Deus Irae, another cringe-inducing Christmas release that will arrive on Digital HD and SCREAMBOX this coming December 10.

Deus Irea follows “Father Javier, a priest living a fractured existence. On one side, he assists families who claim to have witnessed miracles, and on the other he belongs to a trio of excommunicated priests who hunt the possessed down to exorcize them under their own terms: with Bibles, fire, and shotguns.

“But when the only way to crush Evil is by becoming something even worse, he must question how much of his own humanity — or sanity — he’s willing to sacrifice in order to defeat the Devil.”

The film is the debut feature of Argentine filmmaker Pedro Cristiani and is based on the same-titled short film.

Screen Anarchy reviewed the film, calling it.

Here’s the wild teaser trailer that sends a message to hell using Bibles, fire, and shotguns! Get SCREAMBOX now!

Writer and director Matthew John Lawrence puts his own spin on the classic slasher movie with Bloody Axe Wound, slashing into theaters on December 27 courtesy of RLJE Films.

The basic premise? What if Jason Voorhees had a daughter? And what if she wanted to take up her killer dad’s mantle? Watch the official trailer for Bloody Axe Wound below, which feels like a fresh mix of Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon and Tragedy Girls!

In the upcoming meta slasher, “Abbie Bladecut is a teenager torn between the macabre traditions of her family’s bloody trade and the tender stirrings of her first crush.

“In the small town of Clover Falls, Abbie’s father, Roger Bladecut, has built an infamous legacy by capturing real-life killings on tape and selling them to eager customers.

“But as Abbie delves deeper into the grisly family business, she begins to wonder if it’s time to take the family tradition in a new direction.”

Sari Arambulo, Molly Brown and Eddie Leavy star alongside Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Billy Burke. Hilarie Burton Morgan & Jeffrey Dean Morgan produced the film.

Alien: Romulus – Hulu

Fede Alvarez gives a thrilling horror twist on the myth of twin brothers Romulus and Remus in his franchise installment set between Alien and Aliens. A group of six youths eager to leave their soul-sucking mining settlement behind make a bid to escape by infiltrating a decommissioned Weyland-Yutani ship to steal resources. Naturally, this ship happens to have been a testing site for Xenomorphs, and the erstwhile thieves unwittingly trigger a terrifying new outbreak. Alien: Romulus doesn’t forge any new ground or shake up the franchise, but it’s so expertly crafted, nail-bitingly intense, and downright visceral that it’s an easy recommendation all the same. 

Blink Twice – MGM+

Directed by Zoë Kravitz (The Batman) and formerly titled Pussy Island, MGM’s Blink Twice issues some rather intense trigger warnings at the outset and for good reason. Kravitz’s feature debut begins normal enough, featuring a meet-cute between tech billionaire Slater King (Channing Tatum) and sweet cocktail waitress Frida (Naomi Ackie). A night of flirtation at a glitzy gala event leads to a formal invitation to Slater’s private island, where he’s assembled a cadre of friends and ladies for a weekend of fun and debauchery. But something is wrong with this place, and Frida finds herself quickly losing her grip on reality. Kravitz’s incisive debut delivers a contemporary rape/revenge shocker that doesn’t hold back on fury, violence, or psychological torment, though its ending has proven to be divisive.

The Coffee Table – Tubi

Horror fans looking to test their mettle should take note of director Caye Casas’s grim shocker, one so dark that it should likely come with a trigger warning. At the very least it revolves almost exclusively around smashing one of cinema’s biggest taboos with a mischievous grin. A jaw-dropping inciting event transforms the film into a relentless pressure cooker that never eases up for a minute. One that Casas intercuts with pitch-black humor that only heightens the macabre madness. The filmmaker mines horror from a freak tragedy to a degree that often leaves you torn between laughter and edge-of-your-seat suspense.

Exhuma – AMC+, Shudder

Exhuma uses a cursed grave to unleash supernatural terror and a potent folkloric examination of the dark history between Japan and Korea. The narrative structure highlights the stark contrast between cultures, modern society, and ancient customs without sacrificing the genre’s fun or scares in the process. Writer/Director Jae-hyun Jang (Svaha: The Sixth Finger, The Priests) combines introspective cultural and historical themes with creepy, gory, and atmospheric horror thrills. This twist on exorcism horror offers just about everything, including possession, ghost-induced scares, and a physical manifestation of past historical trauma in the most gonzo way. It’s one of the year’s biggest surprises in horror. 

The Woman of the Hour – Netflix

Anna Kendrick gives a new spin on true crime serial killer story in her feature directorial debut. A charming, kitschy ’70s set exploration of gender dynamics belies an unnerving, suspenseful stranger-than-fiction tale of serial killer and rapist Rodney Alcala and his bizarre appearance as a bachelor on TV game show “The Dating Game.”  It’s not horror in the traditional sense, but Kendrick wrings abject terror through nail-biting, suspenseful sequences and one bone-chilling performance by Daniel Zovatto as real-life killer Rodney Alcala. Depicting some of Alcala’s crimes out of order only adds to the suspense, removing a sense of safety.
