Rock Springs (2026) 77% 3.5/5 EDIT “Vera Miao’s Rock Springs starts too familiarly to a fault, but a mid-movie pivot builds to a touching, frighteningly real end. ” – Dread Central Feb 2, 2026 Full Review BURN (2026) 5/5 EDIT “I was in awe, confident I was in the presence of a true, new master of the uncanny. ” – Dread Central Jan 30, 2026 Full Review All You Need Is Kill (2025) 83% 4/5 EDIT “All You Need is Kill is the year’s first great anime feature. Moving, gruesome, and regularly electric – it’ll blow you away. ” – Dread Central Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Killer Whale (2026) 22% 3/5 EDIT “Jo-Anne Brechin’s Killer Whale has a killer aquatic horror premise, but an uneven tone keeps it from monster movie greatness. ” – Dread Central Jan 14, 2026 Full Review Incomplete Chairs (2025) 3.5/5 EDIT “Sickos rejoice. Incomplete Chairs is gonzo midnight goodness.” – Dread Central Jan 8, 2026 Full Review Fall (2022) 79% 3/5 EDIT “Fall is an acrophobic’s nightmare, but it never quite ascends beyond its winning premise. ” – Dread Central Jan 8, 2026 Full Review Don't Let the Cat Out (2025) 4/5 EDIT “Don’t Let the Cat Out is a strange, hypnotic indie that’s feline fresh in its thrills and kills. ” – Dread Central Oct 24, 2025 Full Review It Needs Eyes (2025) 4/5 EDIT “A spooky Gen-Z Creepypasta. Go, indie horror, go! ” – Dread Central Oct 24, 2025 Full Review Abigail Before Beatrice (2025) 3/5 EDIT “I don’t use all-timer lightly, but, yeah, Dudley is more than the real deal here” – Dread Central Oct 24, 2025 Full Review Parasomnia (2025) 4/5 EDIT “Wild paranormal lore and serious scares render Parasomnia a real winner. ” – Dread Central Oct 24, 2025 Full Review The Woman (2025) 4/5 EDIT “The Woman is an eerie masterclass in surreal thrills and ethereal tension. ” – Dread Central Oct 18, 2025 Full Review Burning (2024) 4/5 EDIT “Burning is heavy, heady work that culls from the genre’s past to spotlight damning, distinctly contemporary fears. ” – Dread Central Oct 18, 2025 Full Review The Holy Boy (2025) 4/5 EDIT “A holy experience in folk horror worth canonizing. ” – Dread Central Oct 18, 2025 Full Review Went Up the Hill (2024) 67% 4.5/5 EDIT “Sam Van Grinsven’s Went Up the Hill is a ghost story that swallowed me whole. ” – Dread Central Aug 30, 2025 Full Review Noise (2024) 67% 2.5/5 EDIT “The protracted climax delivers on the title in an unfortunate way—after so much intense build, what we’re left with is just noise” – Dread Central Jul 30, 2025 Full Review The Wailing (2024) 75% 4/5 EDIT “The Wailing wisely modernizes supernatural horror tropes with a generation-spanning tale of heartbreak and terror. ” – Dread Central Jul 24, 2025 Full Review The Only Ones (2024) 2/5 EDIT “The Only Ones is a laudable yet uneven slasher that fails to distinguish itself from the horror pack. ” – Dread Central Jul 12, 2025 Full Review Hot Spring Shark Attack (2024) 67% 3.5/5 EDIT “Hot Spring Shark Attack is a practically driven, balls-to-the-wall shark spectacular. ” – Dread Central Jul 12, 2025 Full Review Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) 50% 3/5 EDIT “If you’ve ever wanted to see a corporate executive’s idea of a dino horror movie, Jurassic World: Rebirth is your chance. ” – Dread Central Jul 12, 2025 Full Review A Breed Apart (2025) 18% 1.5/5 EDIT “Unless you really hate puppies, I’m not sure what enjoyment you’ll salvage from A Breed Apart. ” – Dread Central May 14, 2025 Full Review Locked (2025) 63% 3.5/5 EDIT “Locked is a diverting social thriller with enough blood and guts (and theatrics) to render it a ride worth taking. ” – Dread Central Mar 20, 2025 Full Review F Marry Kill (2025) 50% 3/5 EDIT “Laura Murphy’s F Marry Kill isn’t worth marrying, but you could do a lot worse for a one night stand. ” – Dread Central Mar 8, 2025 Full Review The Buildout (2024) 85% 4/5 EDIT “The Buildout is cosmic horror that lands among the stars.” – Dread Central Feb 4, 2025 Full Review OBEX (2025) 96% 4/5 EDIT “Obex wants you to fight demons and save your dog. Albert Birney’s feature is fantastical and weird enough to convince me to do just that. ” – Dread Central Feb 3, 2025 Full Review Zodiac Killer Project (2025) 90% 2.5/5 EDIT “Zodiac Killer Project intends to indict an entire subgenre, though by the end, this subversive exercise in true crime antics indicts only itself. ” – Dread Central Jan 29, 2025 Full Review
