‘825 Forest Road’

825 Forest Road is an upcoming horror movie penned and helmed by Stephen Cognetti, who’s renowned for the Hell House LLC series. This film takes place in the mysterious town of Ashland Falls, where Chuck Wilson, along with his wife Maria and younger sister Isabella, relocate. However, they soon discover that Ashland Falls conceals a sinister secret that the locals prefer to keep quiet.

It seems that the town is plagued by the specter of Helen Foster, using people’s dread as sustenance. To break this curse, one must locate Helen’s old residence. When Wilson discovers that his family might have been her victims, he has no other recourse but to find the long-lost house at 825 Forest Road. The movie will be streamable on Shudder starting April 4, 2025.

‘Shadow of God’

Streaming April 11

As a passionate cinephile immersed in the realm of horror, I must admit that the exorcism genre has been rather predictable lately, with many modern films opting for the same worn-out narrative formula. However, Shadow of God stands out as a breath of fresh air, offering a unique and captivating take on the usual themes we encounter in these tales.

In the horror movie “Shadow of God,” directed by Michael Peterson, a skilled exorcist attempts an unsanctioned ritual on his father, uncovering the possibility that he must battle a supernatural entity, possibly even a divine being. As one of the Shudder originals debuting in April, this intriguing film, streaming on their platform starting April 11, is definitely worth your attention.

‘Dead Mail’

Streaming April 18

[In case the formatting doesn’t carry over, the original text had the title “Dead Mail” in bold and underlined.]

On an isolated road in the Midwest, a tied man creeps towards a distant mailbox and slips a blood-stained appeal for help into its opening just as a nervous individual approaches from behind. This message eventually reaches the county post office and lands on Jasper’s desk – a veteran and proficient investigator who handles lost mail with the aim of returning it to its rightful owner. As he delves deeper, Jasper crosses paths with Trent, an enigmatic man living at the same residential facility as Jasper. When Trent unexpectedly visits Jasper’s office, it becomes apparent that he has a personal stake in the letter and will go to great lengths to recover it.

Dead Mail will be released on Shudder on April 18, 2025.

‘Frewaka’

Streaming April 25

In the instance where one develops a profound bond with an individual deeply scarred by trauma, it’s important to understand that there may be repercussions. These potential outcomes are masterfully depicted in the chilling horror movie titled Frewaka, a production of Ireland written and directed by Aislinn Clarke.

Frewaka (Available for Streaming on Shudder April 25, 2025)

In the movie, we find Shoo, a home caregiver haunted by a harrowing past event, assigned to look after an agoraphobic woman in a secluded village. This woman suspects sinister forces took her away years ago. As they both grapple with their shared pain, Shoo forms a surprising deep bond with the elderly woman, unaware of the long-lasting impact it may have.
