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

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.

First images revealed for new gothic horror thriller THE NARROW HOUSE

The team behind THE NARROW HOUSE shared the first official images from the film, previewing the suffocating, gothic atmosphere set to make it one of the most anticipated horror releases in Paraguayan cinema.


The images confirm the project's distinctive visual identity: enclosed spaces, bodies gripped by fear, and an old Asunción mansion that seems to close in around its inhabitants. Rather than functioning merely as a setting, the house is a living presence, charged with secrets, capable of turning the everyday into something threatening.

Directed by Armando Aquino (Ore Ru, Leal 2, Renacer Albirrojo) and Hernán Moyano (The Red Book Ritual: Gates of Hell, Sudor frío, Belisario, el pequeño gran héroe del cosmos), the film features a cast led by Lizzie Gómez, Diro Romero (Narciso), Natalia Cálcena (Narciso), Matías Miranda (Sé valiente), Lia Love (No entres), Alejandra Cabral Valinotti, and Alberto Jara.

THE NARROW HOUSE  is built as a slow-burn experience: a film that isn't after the immediate jump scare, but a growing sense of unease. The horror seeps in gradually — through gestures, silences, rooms, and relationships — until the lines between trauma, delusion, and supernatural threat blur completely.

Written by Hernán Moyano, the film converses with genre touchstones like Hereditary, The Others, and Drag Me to Hell, among other works, blending body horror and paranormal dread within an unsettling domestic universe.

Cinematography is by Armando Aquino himself, who builds a visual language defined by confinement, darkness, and the gradual distortion of space.

The soundtrack will feature the original track "Sueño de tus ojos" by the legendary Paraguayan rock duo IODI, and the original track "Crucigrama" by pop singer Lia Love.

With post-production already underway — led by professionals from Paraguay and Argentina — THE NARROW HOUSE is preparing to begin its international festival run toward the end of 2026, ahead of its theatrical release across the region.

Steve Oram stars in disturbingly savage thriller CRUSHED - On UK Digital, October

Hailed as ‘one of the UK’s boldest and most distinctive filmmakers’ (Edinburgh Film Festival), Simon Rumley (Red White & Blue, The Living and the Dead) brings evil incarnate to the big screen in CRUSHED – a bleak and sinister new thriller starring British screen favourite Steve Oram (Sightseers, The End of the F***ing World, DI Ray) in a powerful lead performance as a vicar whose unwavering devotion to God is pushed to its very limits when his daughter is abducted. The film is set to make its UK digital debut on 5 October 2026, courtesy of GrimmVision.

 
CRUSHED takes Rumley’s disturbing 2012 short film P is for Pressure that featured in horror anthology The ABCs of Death and expands on the darkest of subjects, weaving the grim tale of exploitation crush videos into a feature length narrative that explores trauma, forgiveness, revenge and religion.

Set in suburbs of Bangkok, English vicar Daniel (Oram) lives a seemingly idyllic life with his wife May (May Nattaporn Rawddon) and their daughter Olivia (Margaux Dietrich). But when Olivia is exposed to a disturbing animal cruelty video, it sets off a harrowing chain of events that leads to the abduction of the innocent 10-year-old. 

Daniel and May are thrown headlong into an agonising journey that reveals the deepest depths of human depravity. With the support of their tight-knit community, the couple must navigate a maze of fear, faith, desperation and vengeance while trying to bring their daughter home. When the God-fearing vicar comes face to face with the greatest evil humanity has to offer, will he be able to practice the words he’s been preaching his whole life or will his faith falter?

Shot entirely on location in Thailand, the film tells not only a dark yet powerful story but also aims to raise awareness for challenging contemporary issues surrounding child trafficking and animal cruelty.

A visceral and tightly wound thrill ride, prepare to be CRUSHED by this raw and unflinching feature, that delves into the true horrors of humanity.
