‘The Seeding’ – Magnet Releasing Acquires Tribeca Horror Movie for 2024 Release
Up above you’ll find a first-look photo from The Seeding, an upcoming horror movie that has been acquired for release here in the States by Magnet Releasing, Variety reports.
“Magnet will release the film early next year,” Variety notes.
The feature debut of director Barnaby Clay, The Seeding centers on a hiker who gets lost in the desert and seeks refuge with a woman who is living alone.
He soon discovers that she might not be there willingly…

“Barnaby Clay has delivered a truly unsettling, shockingly nightmarish film with The Seeding,” said Magnolia Pictures co-CEOs Eamonn Bowles and Dori Begley in a statement.
“When you set out to make a low-budget film there are a few dream scenarios you hold in the back of your mind, they keep you going through the many challenges stalking the path,” said Barnaby Clay. “Having Magnolia’s genre arm Magnet release this film was one such hope.”
Clay’s statement continues, “They consistently release bold, imaginative films that stand the test of time, and I’m thrilled The Seeding will now sit alongside such titles.”
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.”
