New Movie & TV Trailers
The Mayfair Witches – AMC+ January 5
“Based on Anne Rice’s novels, Mayfair Witches is an exploration of female power and the mortal implications of our decisions. The series focuses on an intuitive young neurosurgeon who discovers that she is the unlikely heir to a family of witches. As she grapples with her newfound powers, she must contend with a sinister presence that has haunted her family for generations. “
Skinamarink – Theaters January 13
“With his feature debut director Kyle Edward Ball plunges us into those endless childhood nights in his expressionistic and experimental horror vision. Two children wake up in the middle of the night to find their father is missing, and all windows and doors in their home have vanished. While they decide to wait for the grown-ups to return, they realize they’re not alone. A voice that sounds like a child beckons them.”
Shotgun Wedding – Amazon January 27
“The film centers on Darcy and Tom as they gather their lovable but very opinionated families for the ultimate destination wedding. If that wasn’t enough of a threat to the celebration, suddenly everyone’s lives are in danger when the entire party is taken hostage, and ‘Til Death Do Us Part’ takes on a whole new meaning as they must save their loved ones — if they don’t kill each other first.”
Infinity Pool – Theaters January 27
“While staying at an isolated island resort, James and Em are enjoying a perfect vacation of pristine beaches, exceptional staff, and soaking up the sun. But they venture outside the resort grounds and find themselves in a culture filled with violence, hedonism, and untold horror. A tragic accident leaves them facing a zero tolerance policy for crime: either you’ll be executed, or, if you’re rich enough to afford it, you can watch yourself die instead.”
