(ASBURY PARK, NJ) -- The ShowRoom Cinema presents Brian De Pal-Month, a three-film retrospective celebrating the stylish, suspense-driven work of visionary filmmaker Brian De Palma. Taking place throughout the second half of May, the series spotlights three of De Palma's most acclaimed thrillers—each showcasing the director's mastery of voyeurism, psychological tension, and bravura cinematic technique.
With his first two films, Caveat and Oddity, Irish writer/director Damian McCarthy established himself as one of the most exciting new voices in horror filmmaking. Hollywood will surely have come calling, but McCarthy has resisted the lure of Tinseltown and stayed put in Ireland, where he can likely remain truer to his vision. Instead, Hollywood has come to McCarthy, with Adam Scott adding star power to McCarthy's third film.
Throughout history, societies have exploited a fear of the unknown to keep the plebs under control. In the medieval Dutch village of director Didier Konings' folk horror Heresy, the surrounding woods are said to harbour an evil force.

(ATLANTIC CITY, NJ) -- Atlantic County Film Club & Eammon Films present a screening of The Chronology of Water at Anchor Rock Club on Monday, May 18, 2026 at 7:30pm.

Following Brady Corbet's Vox Lux and the recent horror sequel Smile 2, David Lowery's Mother Mary is another dark drama centred on a troubled female pop star. It also joins Peter Strickland's In Fabric and the "Weird Tailor" segment of Amicus anthology Asylum to form a sub-genre of horror movies featuring supernatural fabric.
Hitchcock's Psycho is often cited as the first slasher movie but the tropes of that sub-genre go right back to the 1930s. The likes of Michael Myers and Jason Vorhees are essentially descendants of Kharis, the shambling antagonist of Universal's Mummy series of the '30s and '40s. In recent decades Universal has taken their Mummy property out of the horror genre and into the realm of blockbuster action, in a series of hit films starring Brendan Fraser and a flop headlined by the usually reliable Tom Cruise.
