A Collector (I think)

First appearance: Southbound (2015)

Five interlocking tales of horror following the fates of a variety of weary travellers on one of the creepiest stretches of desert highway. In the vein of the original Outer Limits, EC comics, The Twilight Zone etc. from some of the people behind V/H/S, but don't worry this one is fantastic ALL the way through.

Dr. Michael Slovak

First appearance: The Mind's Eye (2015)

A drifter with telekinetic powers runs afoul of the head of the Slovak Institute of Psychokinesis, an organization set up to help telekinetically powered individuals. But does the The head of SIP have other more nefarious plans? You can count on that, wouldn't be much of a movie other wise.

This is the second movie from Joe Begos, director of Almost Human.

The Photographers

First Appearance: The Girl in the Photographs

Someone is killing and posing girls and taking pictures of them, a fashion photographer decides he needs to see these pictures first hand to feel relevant again so he travels to his home town to investigate! The last movie Wes Craven executive produced. Written by Wes Craven's protege.

Akan

First Appearance: Hardcore (2015)

Recently awakened Cyborg, Henry, must fight for his life against Evil Psychokenetic maniac Akan in the first POV feature length action movie. Mayhem in first person POV is as beautiful and amazing as you'd think!


Darcy

First appearance: Green Room (2015)

A punk band runs into trouble at a neo-nazi bar when they accidentally witness something they shouldn't have. Horrifying mayhem ensues.
The movie features Sir Patrick Stewart as the leader of the homicidal skin heads. Anton Yechin stars as a member of the punk band. Interesting as that's two Star Trek alumni in a non-sci-fi movie.

Father

First appearance: Baskin (2015)

Four Turkish Police officers take a trip to one of the creepiest Hells I've seen depicted in a movie. A strange dreamlike movie reminiscent of Lucio Fulci's gory classics The Beyond and City of the Living Dead. May visuals that you'll wish you could forget. The first real horror flick from turkey according to it's director.

Ray Smilie


First Appearance: Devil's Candy (2015)

An artist and his family movie into a new house unfortunately it might not be quite empty and one of it's former residents wants to come home. A genuinely frightening tale of Obsession, possession, Satanic influence, heavy metal and painting.

This may be my favourite movie of 2015. I saw the world premiere during the Midnight Madness program during the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival. and I highly recommend you see this movie.

Unfortunately there's no trailer to share just yet.
