In the wake of three Terrifier movies that dominated the box office and established him as one of the genre’s hottest filmmakers, Damien Leone is next directing an original horror feature.

The Hollywood Reporter lets us know this afternoon that Damien Leone will write, direct, and produce Tortures of the Damned for Lionsgate, with the upcoming original horror feature being produced by Sam Raimi’s company Ghost House Pictures.

The outlet notes that Leone will turn his attention to Tortures of the Damned AFTER Terrifier 4, which is being positioned as the final installment in the Art the Clown saga.

THR details, ” Plot details are unknown, but sources say it is different in tone from Terrifier and will sport a heftier budget than the low-budget Terrifier franchise.”

Scott O’Brien and Pavan Kalidindi will oversee Tortures of the Damned for Lionsgate, with Romel Adam and Jose Cañas overseeing and executive producing for Ghost House.

“We’re incredibly proud and excited to be partnering with Damien Leone on his first original film after the beloved Terrifier series. I join the huge contingency of horror fans — and Damien fans — inside Lionsgate who have been following his work and cheering him on,” said Erin Westerman, president, Lionsgate Motion Picture Group. “Damien is a true genre auteur with a singular vision, and we’re thrilled to help bring this bold new project to the screen while continuing to build on the incredible connection he has with fans around the world.”

Tortures of the Damned will notably be Damien Leone’s first movie made with a studio. All three Terrifier films were independently made with very low-budgets, with Leone, his partner Phil Falcone, and their in-house filmmaking team handling the bulk of the workload.

Damien Leone’s Terrifier 4 is currently in pre-production.

Terrifier 4 will be set on New Year’s Eve, we recently learned. Leone says the script is “shaping up to be the most epic, horrifying, thrilling, emotional and satisfying conclusion.”

EXCLUSIVE POSTER - Poohniverse slasher PINOCCHIO UNSTRUNG starring Robert Englund carves into theaters on July 24.

The chilling reimagining of the familiar fable unfolds inside an elite London prep school...

Created by Geppetto and influenced by a sinister Cricket, Pinocchio launches a violent crusade to carve himself into a real boy like his brother, one piece at a time...

Robert Englund voices Cricket.

The team will be on hand at @monsterpaloozaofficial this Saturday, May 30 for a panel that will feature FX artist Todd Masters, who reveals how the practical animatronics came to life.

For A24’s buzzy Backrooms, age seems to be a sticking point. 

Much has been publicized about Kane Parsons being the youngest filmmaker to helm an A24 title, even sparking debate online as to how involved the director was on his own project. Yet cinema, and horror in particular, has a sturdy track record filled with maverick young filmmakers forging new ground in the genre.

So much so that Kane Parsons isn’t the first teen horror filmmaker, nor the youngest. 

Need proof? Meagan Navarro (@HauntedMeg) has rounded up seven horror movies that hail from directors who made them before reaching the age of 25. In fact, these films marked the start of ongoing careers.

EXCLUSIVE POSTER - Killer hippo horror movie HUNGRY is hungry, hungry for humans this June.

The creature feature horror movie will be released in select theaters June 3, 2026.

Check local listings & grab your tickets now!

Hungry follows thrill-seeking tourists on a riverboat tour through the treacherous Louisiana swamplands. Lured off the beaten path by the promise of an exclusive adventure, they soon find themselves fighting for survival against a ravenous hippopotamus lurking beneath the bayou’s murky waters.

From director Kane Parsons, producer James Wan, and distributor A24, liminal nightmare Backrooms arrives in theaters this weekend, and it’s on track to have a MASSIVE opening.

According to a report from Variety this afternoon, the Backrooms movie is currently tracking to scare up $40 – $50 million in the United States across this coming weekend!

Variety notes in their report, “This would mark A24’s biggest debut to date, passing Civil War ($25.5M). With a production budget of $10M, Backrooms is poised to be a major financial win for YouTube creator-turned-director Kane Parsons and A24.”

The highest opening weekend for a horror movie so far this year was Scream 7 with $63.6 million back in February, with every other horror movie this year nowhere close to that number. If Backrooms can open this weekend with between $40 and $50 million, it will needless to say be a massive win for Kane Parsons, A24, and the horror genre at large at the box office.

Backrooms began as a series of viral videos from Kane Parsons on YouTube, the same platform that Obsession director Curry Barker got his start on. The one-two punch of Obsession and Backrooms as box office success stories looks to mark a brand new chapter in the history of horror, with a new group of filmmakers charting a new course for the genre. They both come in the wake of Markiplier’s horror movie Iron Lung making an incredible $50 million in theaters from an independent self-release, which would’ve been unheard of at any point in the past.

It’s an exciting time to be a horror fan, to say the very least.

A24 will open Backrooms in 3,400 theaters in the United States this weekend, where it will be competing with horror hit Obsession and Paramount’s new horror film Passenger.
