First Look At Indie ‘Speak No Evil’
Tempe-based production company Gas Mask Films has just completed the first week of production on their new independent horror film, Speak No Evil.
The film stars up-and-comer Gabrielle Stone, a professional dancer turned actress, and daughter of cult icon Dee Wallace (The Hills Have Eyes, E.T., Cujo).
Production for Speak No Evil will wrap on Oct. 29th in Apache Junction, Arizona.
“The film opens with a single Mom’s search for her missing child. Judged by the small town folk and authorities she receives little help until it is discovered that all the children in the town have disappeared. When the kids do return they are changed, diseased and violent. Once the story’s demons are revealed, the town becomes a battleground to save or destroy the children. Our main character, played by actor Gabrielle Stone, must uncover and use all her love and strength to fight through the evil to save her daughter.”

We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
