“Slasher: Flesh & Blood”: David Cronenberg Offers Two Choices in Clip From This Week’s Episode [Exclusive]

The carnage and body count are well underway on “Slasher: Flesh & Blood,” the eight-episode fourth season of the horror anthology series. A kill count that began with David Cronenberg‘s Spencer Galloway, the ruthless patriarch who met a grisly demise after assembling his dysfunctional family on an island for a competitive, dangerous game. The deaths don’t stop there, and neither did Cronenberg’s appearance in the series.

Titled “Upstairs Downstairs,” the fourth episode is available today on Shudder, and the exclusive clip below gives a deeper look at just how deep the Galloways’ dysfunction runs. It sees Cronenberg’s character offering a harrowing, unthinkable choice to the mother of his grandchild.

In the fourth episode, “Paranoia and suspicion grow among the surviving group, as another body is discovered and terrible secrets from the past come to the surface.”

Pyewacket‘s Adam MacDonald directed “Slasher: Flesh & Blood.” Along with Cronenberg, the series also stars Paula Brancati, Jefferson Brown, Patrice Goodman, Sabrina Grdevich, and Christopher Jacot. New faces this year include Rachael Crawford (Heartland),  Jeananne Goossen (The Walking Dead), Sydney Meyer (Departure), and Alex Ozerov (The Americans).

New ‘Infested’ Exclusive Clip Will Make You Intensely Afraid of Bathroom Drains

Shudder Infested clip, spider horror

Director Sébastien Vaniček has been set to helm the next Evil Dead movie, but up first from the filmmaker is the creepy crawly spider horror movie Infested. An exclusive new clip gives a discomfiting closer look at the spider terror, and it’ll make you intensely afraid of all bathroom drains and fixtures.

Infested will induce a new wave of arachnophobia this week; the spider horror film arrives on Shudder on April 26, 2024.

If you’re brave enough to face your fears, watch the new clip below to get a feel for the unrelenting wave of spiders that the characters (and the audience) will face in the film.

In the film, “An underprivileged suburb has been thrown into chaos following an invasion of venomous spiders. Ordered to be placed in quarantine, the project sees inhabitants living on lockdown alongside terrifying spiders that are becoming bigger and bigger.

“The story revolves around Kaleb, who’s about to turn 30 and has never been lonelier. He’s fighting with his sister over a matter of inheritance and has cut ties with his best friend.

“Passionate about exotic animals, he comes home one day with a venomous spider and accidentally lets it slip away.”

Théo Christine (“Suprêmes”), Finnegan Oldfield (“Final Cut”), Jérôme Niel (“Smoking Causes Coughing”), Sofia Lesaffre (“Les Misérables”) and Lisa Nyarko star.

Florent Bernard co-wrote the script.

In his review out of Fantastic Fest last year, Bloody Disgusting’s Trace Thurman raved that Infested (aka Vermines) is “one of the best spider attack movies in years,” noting in his 4-star review that the creature feature uses practical spiders – REAL SPIDERS – as much as possible. Thurman also wrote that the spider horror movie is “full of moments that will get under your skin (I kicked my legs up more than a few times in my screening).”

The spiders will be everywhere in Infested, are you ready?
