‘Jagged Mind’ – Hulu’s Time Loop Horror Movie Premieres in June
Hulu is bringing another original horror movie to the table this year with Jagged Mind, which is first premiering at the American Black Film Festival this coming June.
Variety reports that the film will then premiere on Hulu on June 15, 2023.
Maisie Richardson-Sellers (“Legends of Tomorrow”) and Shannon Woodward (“Westworld”) star in Jagged Mind. Here’s the official plot synopsis…
“A woman is plagued by blackouts and strange visions that lead her to discover she’s stuck in a series of time loops, possibly related to her mysterious new girlfriend.”
Kelley Kali directed for 20th Digital Studio and Hulu. The feature film is based on Kali’s short for Hulu’s “Bite Size Halloween” initiative, which was titled First Date.
Allyson Morgan (“Sitting”) wrote the script.
Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
