NEW ORIGINAL SERIES

THE DEAD LANDS — New Episodes Thursdays through March 5

A supernatural adventure set in a mythic Māori past, with an aesthetic that’s part Ash vs Evil Dead and part Xena: Warrior Princess. The Dead Lands features a disgraced warrior, Waka Nuku Rau (Te Kohe Tuhaka), who’s sent back to the world of the living to redeem his sins. But the world Waka returns to is ravaged by a breach between Life and the Afterlife as the spirits of the newly dead now stalk the land and hunt the living.

Waka encounters a determined young woman, Mehe (Darneen Christian), who becomes both his protégé and moral compass. Together, they navigate tribal politics, the unsettled ghosts of Ancestors and other forces both natural and supernatural, on a quest to discover who "broke the world" and how to repair it—if it’s not too late. Also available on Shudder Canada and Shudder UK. An AMC Networks’ Shudder and TVNZ production. TRAILER: https://youtu.be/NhkxVN4uQX4

The Fog (Director: John Carpenter)

My Bloody Valentine (Director: Patrick Lussier)

Wearing a miner's mask and armed with a pickaxe, an unstoppable killer is on the loose. Ten years ago in the town of Harmony, an inexperienced coal miner caused an accident that trapped and killed five men and sent the only survivor, Harry Warden, into a permanent coma.

Now, after years of peace, something from Harmony's dark past is back. Harry Warden may have returned. Starring: Jensen Ackles, Jaime King, Kerr Smith, Kevin Tighe

Starring: Catherine Mary Stewart, Geoffrey Lewis, Kelly Maroney, Mary Woronov, Robert Beltran (Also available on Shudder Canada)

February 3

Like Me (Director: Robert Mockler)

A masked YouTuber draws fame, followers and a few vocal haters from her increasingly dangerous videos. This trippy, "wonderfully twisted" (per IndieWire) SXSW selection features an alienated Addison Timlin (Little Sister) and a morally dubious Larry Fessenden (The Dead Don’t Die) as unlikely companions on a drug-fueled, neon road trip that goes where you least expect it. Starring: Addison Timlin, Larry Fessenden, Ian Nelson (Also available on Shudder Canada)

The Whistler (Director: Jennifer Nicole Stang) — short

Lindsey is put in charge of babysitting her younger sister Becky one night while their parents go out to dinner.

Unimpressed, Becky goes to bed but when Lindsey awakes, her sister is gone and she must search the woods to find her…

Starring: Jonas Dassler, Margarethe Tiesel, Hark Bohm (Also available on Shudder Canada)

The Hills Have Eyes (Director: Wes Craven)

In Wes Craven's cult horror hit, a family on vacation are attacked by mutant killers in the desert. After the success of Last House on the Left, Craven served up another terrifying tale of family survival with a still-relevant Vietnam-era moral question at its core: which family deserves to live? The normal American family? Or the inbred cannibals damaged by nuclear testing designed to keep "upstanding" families safe? Starring: Suzie Lanier-Bramlett, Robert Houston, John Steadman (Also available on Shudder Canada and Shudder UK)

Prom Night (Director: Paul Lynch)

For six long years, Hamilton High School seniors Kelly, Jude, Wendy and Nick have been hiding the truth of what happened to 10-year-old Robin Hammond the day her broken body was discovered near an old, abandoned convent. They kept secret how they taunted Robin, backed her into a corner until, frightened, she stood on a window ledge and fell to her death. Fearing they’d be held responsible, they vowed never to tell. However, someone else was there that day and now, is ready to exact their revenge – on prom night. Starring: Jamie Lee Curtis, Leslie Nielsen, Casey Stevens (Also available on Shudder Canada)

Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (Director: Bruce Pittman)

In this supernatural sequel to the slasher classic PROM NIGHT, sexually voracious bad girl Mary Lou Maloney is burned alive after winning prom queen in 1957. 30 years later, her spirit returns to possess Vicki, a cheerleader who’s been chafing under her parents’ repressive rules. Mom and Dad soon get an eyeful after Vicki starts acting out, but Mary Lou is more focused on revenge on the man who caused her early exit from Earth, who’s now the school principal. A fun and frothy mashup of A Nightmare on Elm Street and Carrie, Prom Night II is an essential entry in the ‘80s slasher-sequel canon.

3 from Hell (see above for details)

February 17

Blanketty (Director: Clara Mamet) — short

Seoul Station (Director: Yeon Sang-ho)

At the same exact moment the chaos begins, a worried father arrives in the district hoping to track down his runaway daughter. But the odds are not in their favor, because as any fan of zombie cinema knows, the real bad guys are never the undead, but selfish monsters of the flesh-and-blood variety. Borrowing from George Romero’s playbook, director Yeon Sang-ho makes insightful connections between zombies and the castoffs of Korean society. Starring: Joon Lee, Eun-kyung Shim, Seung-ryong Ryu (Also available on Shudder Canada)

Return of the Living Dead III (Director: Brian Yuzna)
