Evil Dead actor Lou Taylor Pucci finds himself once more dealing with an archaic book that unleashes evil in the new trailer for Lockbox, the latest from The Last Exorcism director Daniel Stamm and Dark Castle Entertainment.
Lockbox releases in theaters on July 3, 2026.
The new horror movie adapts a fan favorite Knifepoint Horror Podcast story, adapted by Emmy-winning playwright Justin Yoffe from podcast creator Soren Narnia’s original story.
Carla Gugino (The Haunting of Hill House, Gerald’s Game, The Fall of the House of Usher) and Katharine Isabelle (Ginger Snaps, Backrooms) also star.
In Lockbox, “Seeking peace after her mother’s death, Ellen retreats to a rural town and takes in her severely traumatized cousin Winthrop. Their fragile domestic balance shatters when an erratic neighbor warns that Winthrop is dangerous. As strange phenomena escalate, Ellen must put everything on the line to defend Winthrop from a dangerous otherworldly entity determined to track him down.”
Kearie Peak produces for Peak Pictures, alongside Capstone Studios.
“Lockbox captures the eerie dread that makes ‘Knifepoint Horror’ such a success. Carla Gugino is a perfect fit for the film, bringing a rare intensity and subtlety that aligns perfectly with the silent horror of Lockbox. Beneath the supernatural tension, the film explores how generational trauma festers and twists over time. It’s horror with weight, and it stays with you,” Peak said of the project, then under the working title Winthrop.

Knifepoint Horror is a horror anthology podcast that launched in 2010 and has since reached over 10 million downloads across all platforms. The podcast is part of SpectreVision Radio, the podcast network hailing from the American film production company founded by actor Elijah Wood and directors Daniel Noah and Josh C. Waller.
