Ghost Face and G FUEL are Bringing the Energy and the Laughs This Halloween
The energy formula beloved by freaks, geeks, gamers and more has teamed up with the Face of Fear™ in a killer Halloween collab. Ghost Face has a new G FUEL flavor and whole new energy about him, and it all comes to life in G FUEL’s short slasher spoof, Killing It. It’s a concise, hilarious, and unexpected ride, and you’ve definitely never seen Ghost Face like this before.
G FUEL clearly played homage to classic horror in this project, but they gave it a hilariously original twist that brings the brand and Ghost Face into new territory. In a digital world cluttered with branded content at every turn, Killing It stands out and reminds us what looks like when a brand sticks the landing.
G FUEL’s new Ghost Face Stab Stimulant energy formula is the latest in their storied roster of top-tier partnerships, and the brand has been a mainstay in the collectible consumable category for over a decade. They’ve partnered with some of the biggest names in gaming, horror, anime and more, but they’ve truly upped their game with the content supporting the Ghost Face collab.
Since 2012, collectors around the world have been lining their bookshelves with G FUEL tubs, shakers, collector’s boxes and more. G FUEL is offering Stab Stimulant in both their energy formula and hydration formula, and they’ve also created 3 different limited-edition collector’s shaker cups and a collector’s box as well. This stuff sells out quicker than the d-bag gets killed in a horror flick, so don’t nap on it if you want it. But if it’s gone, the good news is that G FUEL offers surprise restocks as well. Because like Ghost Face himself, you’ll be coming back for more.
A luxury team-building trip descends into a bloody fight for survival against a vengeful retreat leader in Corporate Retreat, out today in theaters. It’s the latest entry in a cathartic subgenre of workplace horror that examines every harrowing aspect of job employment.
No job is safe from horror, either, from babysitting to even the most white-collar gigs. But if you work an overnight shift? All bets are off. Vengeful co-workers and bosses aside, the night shift is likely to come armed with witches, creatures, demons, and all manner of things that go bump in the night. Even deadly outbreaks.
Corporate Retreat, along with these five horror movies centered around some of the worst night shifts, will make you glad the weekend has finally arrived.
The Autopsy of Jane Doe
Passenger director André Øvredal goes full throttle for the scares in this quiet little chiller that sees a father and son coroner team stumped over the bizarre mysteries contained within the body of an unidentified young woman during an unexpected night shift. Well-executed scares, clever twists, and earnest performances by Brian Cox and Emile Hirsch give this supernatural haunter serious heft. While the narrative bides its time unveiling the truth behind Jane Doe’s battered body, it’s heavily steeped in witchcraft. In other words, The Autopsy of Jane Doe presents a new take on the subgenre. More importantly, it’s seriously scary.
Cold Storage
COLD STORAGE, StudioCanal 2023
A lethal, mutated fungus breaks free from confinement deep within the bowels of a storage facility. At the frontlines of the madness are Teacake (Stranger Things’ Joe Keery) and Naomi (Barbarian‘s Georgina Campbell), two employees thrust into the middle of the chaos when they investigate an alarm beeping somewhere deep within the building. Director Jonny Campbell (Netflix’s Dracula), working from a script by David Koepp based on his novel, helms the goopy madness with workman efficiency. This lighthearted, goopy horror comedy romp makes the deadly night shift a bit more bearable.
Graveyard Shift
Graveyard Shift follows new hire Hall (David Andrews) tasked by his mean boss Warwick (Stephen Macht) to assist with the insane rat infestation beneath their mill. They find something much most monstrous as the cause. Though the film was panned, it’s a fun creature feature with an always welcome appearance by Brad Dourif as the intensely eccentric exterminator. The film also opts for a happier ending, whereas (spoiler), the story sees both Hall and Warwick getting devoured by the mutated rats, the crew in the upstairs mill none the wiser.
Last Shift
‘Last Shift’
Rookie Officer Jessica Loren (Juliana Harkavy) has been assigned to watch over a closing precinct on its final night of operation…alone. With nearly everything already moved over to the new station, including rerouted 911 calls, it should be a pretty quiet night as she waits for a Hazmat team to arrive to remove biohazardous waste. Instead, it becomes a waking nightmare as she’s forced to deal with unsettling visitors. Last Shift, co-written by Scott Poiley and director Anthony DiBlasi, brings the scares.
Intruder
The overnight stock crew of a local grocery store finds themselves falling victim to an unseen killer in this highly infectious late ‘80s slasher. The deaths are delightfully gruesome and inventive; look for this killer to make excellent use of grocery store items as weapons. Frequent Raimi collaborator Scott Spiegel directed this bloody slasher, which means a lot of overlap with the Evil Dead II. That means putting Sam Raimi in front of the camera for a change, along with Ted Raimi and Evil Dead II’s Dan Hicks. Look for a cameo by Bruce Campbell as well!
