Here’s all the new horror that released on Friday, March 27, 2026!
A New York City high-rise serves as a temple to Satan, and new maid Zazie Beetz is its latest human sacrifice in They Will Kill You. The film is now playing in theaters nationwide.
Zazie Beetz stars as a young woman who must survive the night at the Virgil, a demonic cult’s mysterious and twisted death-trap of a lair, before becoming their next offering.

Kirill Sokolov (Why Don’t You Just Die!) directs from a script he co-wrote with Alex Litvak (Predators). IT filmmaker Andy Muschietti produces alongside Barbara Muschietti.
Produced by Diablo Cody, director Meredith Alloway’s Forbidden Fruits brings a new coven of witches to the big screen. The film is now playing exclusively in theaters.
Lola Tung (“The Summer I Turned Pretty”), Victoria Pedretti (“The Haunting of Hill House”), Alexandra Shipp (Tragedy Girls), Gabrielle Union (Breaking In), and Emma Chamberlain star in Forbidden Fruits, being released by IFC and Shudder.
Free Eden employee Apple secretly runs a witchy femme cult in the basement of the mall store after hours. But when new hire Pumpkin challenges the group’s ‘girl boss’ ways, the women are forced to face their own poisons or succumb to a bloody fate.
“Forbidden Fruits grabbed me by the neck the very first time I read it,” Diablo Cody said. “It’s one of the craziest, most creative, beautifully bonkers projects I’ve ever worked on.”
Meagan Navarro writes in her review for Bloody Disgusting, “Forbidden Fruits may not necessarily forge new terrain in the teen satire space, but Alloway brings so much style and energy to her well-cast single-location stage play adaptation for the Gen Z crowd.”
Based on the hit horror video game, The Mortuary Assistant was released in select theaters last month. The film is now streaming exclusively on Shudder beginning today.
The Mortuary Assistant follows newly certified mortician Rebecca Owens, who accepts a night shift at a mortuary, embalming bodies alone after hours. As disturbing events escalate, Rebecca uncovers demonic rituals, the dark secrets of her enigmatic mentor, and her own buried trauma — racing to survive the night before her body becomes a vessel for possession.
Willa Holland (“Arrow”) and Paul Sparks (“Boardwalk Empire”) star, with Mark Steger (“Stranger Things”) as The Mimic. The Mortuary Assistant creator Brian Clarke co-wrote the script with Tracee Beebe. Jeremiah Kipp (Slapface) directs.
Originally released on PC in 2022, The Mortuary Assistant quickly became a viral sensation and made its way to Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch. The film will expand on the game’s world, delving deeper into the lore of the demonic entities plaguing River Fields.
Proving herself to be a singular voice with Raw and Titane, French writer-director Julia Ducournau is back with new movie Alpha, now playing in theaters from NEON.
Ducournau’s third movie follows Alpha, a troubled 13-year-old who lives with her single mom. Their world collapses the day she returns from school with a tattoo on her arm.
Tahar Rahim (Madame Web), Golshifteh Farahani (Extraction), Mélissa Boros, Emma Mackey (Death on the Nile), Finnegan Oldfield (Infested), and Louai El Amrousy star.
