London is set to become the capital of fear this winter as the Soho Horror Film Festival makes its eagerly awaited return for 2024. With an expanded hybrid format, this year’s festival promises to be the biggest yet, delivering a chilling mix of in-person and online scares across two weekends. Kicking off at Brixton’s Whirled Cinema from 22nd to 24th November, the festival then moves online for its Sohome Horror Film Festival from 28th November to 1st December, offering fans a ghoulish feast of over 80 films from 17 countries.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of The Blair Witch Project, the festival will showcase an exceptional strand of found footage films.

Who’s Watching tells the unsettling story of Caleb, a metalhead loner who becomes obsessed with his co-worker, Krista. As Caleb’s obsession deepens, he begins invading every aspect of Krista’s life.

From director Tim Kasher, the upcoming indie horror movie Who’s Watching is headed to both Beyond Fest and the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival this October, and Bloody Disgusting has been exclusively provided with the poster art tonight. Check it out below and read on.

The poster reveal comes in the wake of a series of creepy clips that we debuted over on Twitter last week, and it introduces the man who filmed the footage: a man named Caleb.

In every city in America, there’s a man like Caleb…

The Brooklyn Horror Film Festival previews on their website, “A loner who passes his time as part of a low-rent heavy metal band, Caleb becomes obsessed with a new female co-worker. At first, he records her under the fake guise of making a documentary, but as his infatuation grows, he resorts to more desperate and dangerous methods to change her mind about him.

Laura Jane Grace, Anthony Green, and Tim Kasher are heading on tour together. The trio of punk-rock musicians announced their “more collaborative” Carousel Tour in May, which will follow the three artists performing as soloists.

“We wanted to do something different with the Carousel Tour, something more collaborative than your usual show. So while each of us will have our own set times, these aren’t solo sets,” the musicians said in a release. “We’ve challenged each other to blur the lines and join in on each other’s...

Cursive frontman Tim Kasher will release a new solo album, Middling Age, on April 15 via 15 Passenger Records. The musician has previewed the album with lead single “I Don’t Think About You,” which features vocals from Cursive’s Megan Siebe.

The song, which arrived along with a self-directed music video, sees Kasher reflecting on a lost love.

“‘I Don’t Think About You’ is a song that came together fairly quickly for me as I absentmindedly hummed the title over and over again whilst working out the chords,” Kasher said in a statement.

John Ratzenberger — the actor best known for playing the affable mailman Cliff Clavin on Cheers — was enlisted to record a Cameo video urging people to support the United States Postal Service.

The video happened to be commissioned by Tim Kasher, the punk stalwart best known for fronting bands like Cursive and the Good Life. Kasher posted the clip on Twitter, writing: “An important message from none other than Cliff Clavin (@dratzenberger) himself, asking us all to help keep @usps in business!! (thank you for your service, Mr. Ratzenberger).” He added,...

Rising interest amongst the world’s leading film festivals to create genre sidebars for horror, thriller, sci-fi and fantasy films, inspired the Cannes Festival, the Sitges Fantastic Film Fest and Bernardo Bergeret, creator of Ventana Sur’s genre market, Blood Window, to create a special pitching event, that aims to showcase upcoming trends in fantastic cinema production worldwide.

The initiative involves seven top fests – Sitges, Bucheon, Cairo, Guadalajara (Ficg), Macao, SXSW and Toronto (Tiff).

Each festival has endorsed a project that was presented during the digital pitching session held on June 24 at Cannes Marché du Film Online.

Jérôme Paillard, Cannes Film Market executive director and Fantastic 7 co-founder, introduced the second edition, underlining that “this is certainly an inspiring time” for genre cinema.

Bernardo Bergeret said that fantastic cinema has gained renewed importance in the current, highly unpredictable and fear-ridden global situation, adding that “it has always been said that reality...
