SCREAMBOX – December Highlights Include ‘Adam Chaplin’, ‘Santastein’, ‘Devils’, ‘Phenomena’, & ‘Eaten Alive’
SCREAMBOX has revealed the new films that are joining the horror streaming service in December, including the goriest film you’ve never seen, Adam Chaplin, as well as the “Frankenstein”-inspired Santastein, body-swap thriller Devils, and classics Dario Argento’s Phenomena and Tobe Hooper’s Eaten Alive.
Fresh off its Beyond Fest premiere, the extended cut of Adam Chaplin is streaming exclusively on SCREAMBOX now! Drawing comparison to The Crow, Fist of the North Star, and Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky, the unrated Italian splatterfest is a must-see for gorehounds.
Santa Claus has also come to SCREAMBOX in Rare Exports, also now streaming. From Sisu director Jalmari Helander, the Finnish film joins SCREAMBOX’s Yuletide Fear collection alongside exclusives like Secret Santa and Night of the Missing and such classics as Black Christmas and Silent Night, Deadly Night 2.
Violent South Korean thriller Devils streams exclusively on SCREAMBOX on December 5. It’s Face/Off meets Freaky Friday when a homicide detective swaps bodies with a serial killer.
Dario Argento’s Phenomena hits SCREAMBOX on December 15. Also known as Creepers, the 1985 Giallo stars Jennifer Connelly and Halloween‘s Donald Pleasence. Other Argento classics on SCREAMBOX include Deep Red, Tenebrae, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage, and The Wax Mask.
From master of horror Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Poltergeist), Eaten Alive takes a bite out of SCREAMBOX on December 15. The ’70s killer crocodile flick features The Addams Family‘s Carolyn Jones, a pre-Freddy-Krueger Robert Englund, and Halloween‘s Kyle Richards.
SCREAMBOX Exclusive Santastein comes alive on December 19. The festive twist on Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” delivers Christmas cheer and slasher fear in equal measure!

Zach Cregger is no stranger to violent movies, with his first two at-bats in the horror genre yielding the films Barbarian and Weapons. But even those movies can’t compete with the level of violence on display in his next movie Resident Evil, he teases in a new chat.
Zach Cregger tells Empire Magazine that Resident Evil is “definitely the most violent thing I’ve done.” He teases, “You gotta go grotesque! I wanted to go all the way.”
“So it’s gnarly. It’s brutal,” Cregger continues. “A very bloody affair.”
He also tells Empire, “Fleshing out what [the Umbrella Corporation is] up to and how the T-virus works, that’s not what this movie is. This movie is about one dude’s journey on foot, fighting monsters. I don’t give a fuck about checking boxes. All I cared about was just telling a fun story. We step on the gas at about eight minutes in and never take our foot off the floor.”
Resident Evil opens in theaters and IMAX September 18 from Sony.
The film is being billed as “a thrilling — and terrifying — reinvention of the Resident Evil franchise” from the mind of visionary filmmaker Zach Cregger (Barbarian, Weapons).
Austin Abrams (Weapons) stars as Bryan, a medical courier who unwittingly finds himself in a non-stop race for survival as one fateful, horrifying night collapses around him in chaos.
Zach Cherry (“Severance”), Kali Reis (“True Detective: Night Country”), Paul Walter Hauser (“Black Bird”), and Johnno Wilson (“Twisted Metal”) round out the cast.
