We pull out the horror crystal ball with friend of the pod Gigi Leal to look ahead at 2026, breaking down our excitement, nerves, and wild speculation around upcoming releases like Sébastien Vaniček’s Evil Dead Burn, Robert Eggers’ Werwulf, Nia DaCosta’s 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil, and more.
It’s January, so we’re pulling out the horror crystal ball and looking ahead at what 2026 has in store. Friend of the Pod Gigi Leal (RoomforScream) joins us to go through a stacked list of upcoming horror movies and just… scream at each other like horror fans do.
We get into things we’re excited about, things we’re nervous about, and things we’re already overthinking way too much—covering titles like Evil Dead Burn from Sébastien Vaniček, Robert Eggers’ Werwulf, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple directed by Nia DaCosta, Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil, and more. No spoilers, no release date breakdowns, just gut reactions, hopes, fears, and a lot of speculation about what might actually hit.
What feels promising? What could completely fall apart? And which movies are we already emotionally attached to despite knowing better?
If you like looking ahead at upcoming horror, guessing wildly, and getting cautiously excited about movies we haven’t seen yet, this one’s for you sooo...
COME HANG OUT!!!
