‘Return to Sender’ Trailer – Jamie Lee Curtis Co-Created and Produced New Horror Short [Exclusive]

Published

on

On the way from Jamie Lee Curtis‘ production company Comet Pictures is a horror short film titled Return to Sender, and Bloody Disgusting is debuting the official trailer today.

Jamie Lee Curtis co-created and produced Return to Sender, which follows a woman who becomes fixated on a package delivery scam that grows increasingly strange and personal.

Starring Allison Tolman (Krampus), Return to Sender has been accepted into over 20 film festivals so far and it will premiere online on Alter and Omeleto this November.

Return to Sender will play at Fantastic Fest on September 24 and September 26, attached to the feature Smoking Causes Coughing, as well as Beyond Fest on October 1st.

Russell Goldman (Blumhouse’s Mother Nature) wrote and directed Return to Sender.

Goldman said in a statement to Bloody Disgusting, “I received a notification. The Valentine’s Day gift I ordered for my partner had just just arrived at my door. I brought the box inside and opened it, but what I purchased was not inside. Instead there were two used shin guards— stained, smelling foul— that I threw out of my hands. It sounds irrational, but by bringing this package I ordered into my home, I felt I had violated my own personal space. I kept thinking about who had done this. Why they would even do this.

“One day at work, Jamie Lee Curtis told me about a delivery scam her sister experienced… receiving walking sticks that she didn’t order but she still needed. It took me back to my fixation… the mystery that ate at me. This was my way into telling Return to Sender, a short about our desire for control over our lives.”

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

Published

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?
