‘The Seeding’ Exclusive Trailer – The Hills May Have Eyes in Magnet’s High Desert Horror Movie
The feature debut of director Barnaby Clay, Magnet Releasing’s 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…
Ahead of the film’s release in theaters and on PVOD January 26, 2024, Magnet has exclusively provided Bloody Disgusting with the trailer and poster for Clay’s The Seeding.
The filmmaker tells us, “The film has been gestating for a long time, so it’s thrilling for people to finally get to experience it. I say ‘experience’ because I set out to make The Seeding as immersive as possible. It’s not a film to feel removed from, it’s an experience that drags you though the sand, the heat, the decay, and also natural beauty of the world it takes place in.
“I had a similar feeling watching certain films from the ’70s, mostly from Australia; Walkabout, Picnic At Hanging Rock, Wake in Fright – I left these movies sunburnt and destroyed.”
“I was also struck by films from the same period such as Deliverance, that expose the male psyche in its most primal reactive form,” Clay continues. “Who knows how you’d react under a similar set of circumstances, I probably wouldn’t fare too well.”
Scott Haze (Venom) and Kate Lyn Sheil (V/H/S) star in The Seeding.

NEON has been absolutely slaying the marketing game for their horror output this year, and they’re kicking the Longlegs campaign into high gear with one more month until release.
A cryptic ad in The Seattle Times today (seen below) has led clever horror fans to discover TheBirthdayMurders.net, the brand new official viral marketing website for Longlegs.
The in-universe website details the victims of the serial killer known as Longlegs (Nicolas Cage), described as a “Satan-worshipping psycho” who has terrorized families throughout the Pacific Northwest for nearly three decades.
The website details, “A bloody trail of bodies here in the great state of Oregon attests to the depraved savagery of this one-of-a-kind serial killer. With over three dozen victims that we know of, LONGLEGS is one of the most prolific mass murderers ever to have graced the region, and his gruesome endeavors are the stuff of nightmares. At first, all of the killings appeared to be straightforward murder-suicides: the handiwork of average men who suddenly snapped and slaughtered their wives and children. But a series of eerie coded messages left at the crime scenes indicate that someone – or something – is influencing these horrific crimes. The cryptic letters are signed by someone calling himself LONGLEGS.”
“With thirty-eight kills to his name, LONGLEGS has torn apart the lives of eleven different families throughout the Beaver State. His victims were good people: honest fathers, decent mothers, innocent little children.”
The website is loaded with secrets, clues, and gruesome (faux) crime scene photos, and you might even find a mention of yours truly nestled in there. Poke around. Stay a while.
Longlegs arrives in theaters July 12.
The upcoming serial killer horror movie marks the return of director Osgood Perkins (The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Gretel & Hansel). Nicolas Cage stars alongside Maika Monroe, with Monroe playing an FBI agent and Cage playing a serial killer.
In the film, “FBI Agent Lee Harker (Monroe) is a gifted new recruit assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer (Cage). As the case takes complex turns, unearthing evidence of the occult, Harker discovers a personal connection to the merciless killer and must race against time to stop him before he claims the lives of another innocent family.
The film is rated “R” for “Bloody violence, disturbing images and some language.”
