The Fright Stuff has the right stuff at the New Jersey Film Festival!

by Jack Bolton
published 2026-09-06

Haunted houses are fun. Don’t listen to what that one family member says, this is an objective fact. A good haunted house is, for many, the highlight of the Halloween season. But have you even wondered what it takes to make the magic happen? Well, you’re in luck! Mike Meyer’s documentary, The Fright Stuff, gives you a peek behind the curtain; from the history of the industry, to interviews of successful companies, and even the construction of a haunted house. This film will shock you, creep you out, and weirdly enough, pull at your heartstrings.





 

Mesmerizing documentary Imprinted screens at the New Jersey Film Festival on September 13!

by Penelope de la Cruz
published 2026-09-05

There is something almost mesmerizing about watching a dancer move alongside a horse. At certain moments in Imprinted, their movements feel so natural together that it is easy to forget how much trust and communication it takes to reach that point. Directed and produced by Martina Casas, the documentary follows choreographer JoAnna Mendl Shaw and her work with dancers and horses through The Equus Projects. What first seems like a film about an unusual form of dance slowly becomes something much more meaningful. Through beautiful movement, unexpected challenges, and quieter moments between the dancers and horses, Imprinted explores how two completely different species can learn to communicate without words.
