First Still From ‘Killers,’ Hailing From the Makers of ‘The Raid,’ ‘Macabre’ and ‘V/H/S/2’!
While we gear up to announce the Bloody Disgusting Selects release of Macabre (finally), the insanely gory Indonesian flick from The Mo Brothers, Timo Tjahjanto has reteamed with Kimo Stamboel for Killers, which is being produced, in part, by the team behind The Raid. Twitch landed the first ever image featuring Japanese actor Kazuki Kitamura as the murderous Nomura Shuhei.
The film stars Ray Sahetapy, the veteran Indonesian actor who played the crime boss Tama in The Raid.
Developed by The Mo Brothers from a story by Nightmare Detective producer Ushiyama Takuji, “Killers is an international horror-thriller revolving around a pair of serial killers who discover one another on the internet.”
Timo is also behind the insane V/H/S/2 segment, “Safe Haven,” and my personal favorite ABCs of Death short, ‘L is for Libido’.
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
