‘The Strangers: Chapter 3’ (2026)

The final chapter of the terrifying ‘Strangers’ saga arrives on March 6th, pitting Maya against a trio of masked killers in a desperate fight for survival. Madelaine Petsch reprises her role as she attempts to escape the smiling, murderous residents of a remote timber town. The film finally reveals the origins of the killers – Scarecrow and Dollface – and the disturbing secrets of their hometown through a series of flashbacks.

‘War Machine’ (2026)

Okay, so I just finished watching ‘War Machine’ and it’s a wild ride. It throws you right into the thick of an Army Ranger training exercise that goes horribly wrong when the trainees stumble upon something… not of this world. Alan Ritchson is fantastic as Candidate 81, a combat engineer who’s basically forced to become the leader when this giant, terrifying creature starts hunting them down during the final 24 hours of this brutal selection program. It’s directed by Patrick Hughes, and alongside Ritchson, you’ve got Dennis Quaid, Stephan James, and Jai Courtney rounding out the cast. It’s a solid sci-fi action flick, and you can check it out exclusively on Netflix starting March 6th.

‘The Bride!’ (2026)

Featuring Jessie Buckley, Christian Bale, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Peter Sarsgaard, ‘The Bride!’ is a unique film that mixes drama, horror, and romance. Directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal, it’s a fresh take on Mary Shelley’s ‘Frankenstein,’ set in 1930s Chicago. The story follows a solitary Frankenstein who asks a scientist to build him a partner. When they bring a murdered woman back to life, ‘The Bride!’ is created, sparking both a passionate romance and a chaotic upheaval. Shot entirely with IMAX cameras, the film will be released in select IMAX theaters on March 6th.

‘The Good Boy’ (2026)

Stephen Graham and Andrea Riseborough deliver gripping performances in ‘Heel,’ a disturbing thriller filled with crime, horror, and mystery. The film centers on a rebellious 19-year-old who finds himself chained in the basement of a seemingly normal suburban home after a night of partying. The couple who abducted him, along with their son, attempt to change his behavior through unsettling and relentless psychological manipulation. Formerly known as ‘Good Boy,’ ‘Heel’ will be released in cinemas for a limited time starting March 4th by Magnolia Pictures.

‘Dolly’ (2026)

Fabianne Therese, Russ Tiller, Michalina Scorzelli, and Kate Cobb star in ‘Dolly,’ a new indie psychological thriller. The film follows a young woman kidnapped from a camping trip by a terrifying figure wearing a cracked porcelain doll mask. The silent killer, portrayed by wrestler Max the Impaler, has a disturbing obsession with having a child and subjects his captive to a horrifying, baby-like existence. With a style reminiscent of 1970s grindhouse films, ‘Dolly’ will be in theaters for a limited time starting March 4, courtesy of IFC Films.

‘NFT: Cursed Images’ (2026)

When a group of friends who are into cryptocurrency buy NFTs from a popular collection called Crypto Horrors, strange things start happening. They soon discover the NFTs are cursed, and the terrifying creatures depicted in the digital art begin appearing in the real world, haunting their owners. Attempts to get rid of the NFTs by deleting or reselling them don’t work, and reports of similar, deadly events flood online communities. Jonas Odenheimer directs ‘NFT: Cursed Images,’ which will be available to stream on March 6th.

‘The Hermit’ (2026)

While on vacation in the woods, two teens stumble upon a gruesome discovery – a pile of human remains near a remote farm. They quickly find themselves in a desperate fight for survival against a wild, deaf pig farmer who hunts people and turns them into jerky. Featuring Lou Ferrigno (best known as the Incredible Hulk) in a terrifying creature role, this intense and shocking slasher film, ‘The Hermit’, will be available to stream for the first time on March 3rd.
