A Couple’s Night Turns Into Terror In ‘Ghosts Of The Void’ (Trailer)

Jen and Tyler used to have it all: a solid marriage, a nice home, and careers that promised a bright future. But when Tyler’s drinking problem worsens and his writer’s block continues, the debt collectors show no mercy, forcing the couple out of their home and into their car. Beyond stressed, exhausted, and overwhelmed, they park their car, hoping to get a good night’s sleep. But when masked strangers arrive, their night turns into terror. From writer-director, Jason Miller comes a riveting, slow-burn, uneasy thriller that delves deep into the psychological depths of a crumbling marriage and a couple stuck in the middle of nowhere. Ghosts of the Void explores the fragility of the human psyche in the face of adversity while leaving audiences to question the thin line between reality and the supernatural. The film is produced by Seth Savoy, Mike Ware, and Tony Kamin and is executive produced by Cory Coken, Bryen Hensley, Anthony Marchese, Jamie Vanadia, Edward

Teaser Trailer and Exclusive Poster Reveal: THE VEIL

After receiving its world premiere at Portland’s H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival earlier this month, writer/director Cameron Beyl’s The Veil — which will also screen at the Austin Film Festival on October 27 and 30, and then again with H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival’s inaugural event in Mobile, AL, November 3-5 — presents an exclusive first look for Horror Fuel readers at its stunning poster, along with a teaser trailer.

Spoiler-Free Film Review: LAST STRAW (Sitges Film Festival and Beyond Fest)

Alan Scott Neal delivers an outstanding slice of genre cinema with his feature-length directorial debut Last Straw. Combining home invasion horror with siege thriller elements, the film takes viewers on a wild, blood-soaked ride reminiscent of now-classic 1970s and 1980s drive-in fare with a decidedly modern approach. Nancy (Jessica Belkin) is a fast-living, foul-mouthed young woman worried about turning 20 years old soon — and courtesy of a roadside pregnancy test, she has some new things weighing on her mind, as well. Living in a small town, she is the manager of a roadside diner, the employees of which point out is only because she is the owner’s (Jeremey Sisto) daughter. After Nancy stands up to four masked ruffians who threaten to come back later after she kicks them out of the place, she wields her managerial power and fires long-standing cook Jake (Taylor Kowalski, who also serves as a producer on the film). Jake takes the other three members
