Daisy May and Charlie Cooper’s NIGHTWATCH - Coming home on Disc and Digital

TV stars and siblings Daisy May and Charlie Cooper stay overnight at some of the UK’s most haunted locations in this must-own series!


The stars of cult hit, This Country, have had a lifelong passion for all things paranormal. Now they’re visiting some of the UK’s spookiest sites, including a historic castle in Northumberland, bat infested ruins in Pembrokeshire and a disused prison in Gloucester. 

Daisy’s even brought along a few spectre-spotting devices, including a spirit radio and a temperature-testing teddy bear. As night closes in, the two are left to their own devices. And that’s when things get really interesting, very silly – and just a little bit spooky.

Dazzler Media presents Daisy May and Charlie Cooper’s NIGHTWATCH on Blu-ray, DVD & Digital from 26th October.

Manchester’s CULTPLEX is once again lifting the coffin lid on the North’s biggest horror extravaganza as STAB Horror Film Season returns this October for a full month of sinister cinema, creepy classics, terrifying television and enough big-screen horror to keep even the bravest audiences awake at night.

 
Now firmly established as CULTPLEX’s annual celebration of all things horrifying, from 1st October to All Hallows Eve, every film gracing CULTPLEX’s big screen will be dedicated to horror bringing together a bloody blend of cult favourites, genre classics, modern nightmares, movie marathons and a bone chilling all nighter.

This year’s programme promises plenty of familiar faces, with the season kicking off with the annual screening of The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue (1974) filmed right here in Manchester. We also welcome the return of the now official cult classic Ghost Hunting with Girls Aloud as well as The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror Simpsons Quiz hosted by the award winning comedy heroes of A Lovely Time.

For those interested in true classic horror the latest Hammer Uncut and Uncensored restoration of Christopher Lee’s Dracula (1954) will be making an appearance alongside the 50th anniversary of Brian De Palma’s Carrie (1976), as well as a celebration of the iconic Tim Curry as Pennywise in Stephen King’s IT (1990).

At CULTPLEX, world cinema is a huge part of the everyday programme, but never more so than the month of October. Starting in Mexico with the fantasy crime horror Tigers Are Not Afraid (2017) then the edge of your seat Korean masterpiece I Saw

The Devil (2010), and, forget the American remake, CULTPLEX are screening the original Danish language Speak No Evil (2022), a surefire way to ruin your entire week.

The season will also play host to the UK Premiere of Velocipastor 2, bringing prehistoric religious mayhem back to the big screen. The cinema promises you will never have seen or experienced anything quite like it.

Other special presentations include a very chaotic bottomless booze Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004) and a Haunted House All Nighter featuring The Shining (1980), Japanese cult classic Hausu (1977), Lucio Fulci’s The Beyond (1981) and, of course, the original Poltergeist (1982).

And as the month draws to a close, on Halloween itself, all tickets will be £6.66, the lowest and scariest ticket price in Manchester. But that certainly doesn’t mean the scares are cheap. The day starts with family favourite Hocus Pocus (1993) and ends with a daring double bill of Curry Baker’s Obsession (2026) and Sam Raimi’s stone-cold classic Evil Dead II (1987) for one final night of big-screen horror.
And that’s not even scratching the coffin lid.

Whether you’re looking for a classic you’ve been dying to see on the big screen, a cult oddity you’ve never heard of, or simply an excuse to spend the whole of October watching horror films, STAB Horror Film Season has something lurking in the shadows.

Tickets are ON SALE NOW.

From the creators of The Blair Witch Project comes a new nightmare THE INFLUENCER PROJECT

Icon Film Distribution is pleased to confirm that THE INFLUENCER PROJECT will be hitting UK & Irish cinemas nationwide from 16th October.


Having forever revolutionised the world of horror with their 1999 hit, the visionaries behind The Blair Witch Project (co-creator Eduardo Sánchez and producer Gregg Hale) make a highly anticipated return to their found-footage roots, now with a strikingly modern spin on the concept as they take on the controversies of social media and the dangers of parasocial relationships.

British beauty and lifestyle influencer Chiara King leads this twisted tale inspired by her own experiences with stalkers, bringing a chillingly realistic edge to the story. A hugely popular online star, she has already amassed more than 4.2 million followers on TikTok and 1.4 million on Instagram. The film also marks the directorial debut of Mike Nybroe.

Influencer Chiara King travels to Copenhagen with a documentary crew promising an unfiltered look behind the glamorous business of online fame. But as the cameras and her devoted fans follow her every move, someone else is watching too. When an obsessive stalker begins closing in, the documentary mutates into something far more terrifying, blurring the line between content and evidence, follower and predator, fact and fiction

View the Trailer on YouTube. 

THE INFLUENCER PROJECT will be in UK cinemas from 16th October, before coming to DVD, Blu-ray and all major Digital Platforms 30th November.

Psychological sci-fi horror THE NICE ONES - At UK cinemas, November.

Joelle Rae (The Witcher) and Emrhys Cooper (Nosferatu) star in new psychological horror and sci-fi thriller THE NICE ONES, coming to UK cinemas from 19th November.

 
The film will also be available on streaming services in North America & other territories from 29th September.

The Nice Ones follows a group of friends whose countryside Airbnb getaway takes a terrifying turn when Kate witnesses strange lights moving across the night sky. As tensions within the group rise, a terrifying force begins to seep into the house, forcing Kate to confront her darkest past and an otherworldly threat.

Written and directed by Peter Stylianou, whose 2024 vampire feature Drained marked him as an intriguing new voice in independent filmmaking, 

THE NICE ONES brings together psychological horror and sci-fi, drawing inspiration from genre classics including The Thing and Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Alongside Rae and Cooper, the ensemble cast includes Donna Preston (The Sandman, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald), Ian Whyte (Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire), Daniela Norman (Tiny Pretty Things), Ayvianna Snow (How to Kill Monsters), James Akka (The Sandman), Nick Lavelle (Red XII), Tom Kelsey (National Theatre Live: Dr. Strangelove) and Andrew Lyle-Pinnock (The Little Mermaid).

The film also marks the producing debut of actor Ayvianna Snow, who has launched her own production company, Snow Pictures, with 
THE NICE ONES as its first feature. Ayvianna produces the film alongside Peter Stylianou and Nick Lavelle.

Peter Stylianou said, "Instead of making darkness the source of fear, as so many horror films do, I wanted to explore light — and the darker, more disturbing, cult-like side of worshipping it. The Nice Ones is a mix of the Manson Family and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, exploring what happens when something that appears beautiful, pure and inviting becomes deeply sinister."

THE NICE ONES is an RG Films Production in association with Level 33 Entertainment, Century Park Entertainment and Snow Pictures.
