A Colossal load of horror is headed our way this weekend, and we have the 411 on what’s playing where. Dig in!
As always, click on the titles below for our full coverage on each. Opening this week in theaters and on VOD are…
Colossal
Gloria (Anne Hathaway) is an ordinary woman who, after losing her job and being kicked out of her apartment by her boyfriend, is forced to leave her life in New York and move back to her hometown. When news reports surface that a giant creature is destroying Seoul, South Korea, Gloria gradually comes to the realization that she is somehow connected to this far-off phenomenon. As events begin to spin out of control, Gloria must determine why her seemingly insignificant existence has such a colossal effect on the fate of the world.
The Void
Officer Daniel Carter (Aaron Poole) happens upon a blood-soaked figure limping down a deserted stretch of road while he’s in the middle of a routine patrol. He rushes the young man to a nearby rural hospital staffed by a skeleton crew, only to discover that patients and personnel are transforming into something inhuman. As the horror intensifies, Carter leads the other survivors on a hellish voyage into the subterranean depths of the hospital in a desperate bid to end the nightmare before it’s too late.

On the night before Halloween, a single mother and her daughter are taken hostage inside a strange man’s home. Starring Steven Michael Quezada and Rachel Whittle, THE NIGHT BEFORE was written and directed by two-time Texas Filmmaker of the Year Brett Bentman.
Bethany
After Claire’s mother dies, she and her husband move back to her childhood home, only to have the abusive and traumatic memories of her mother come back and bring unrest into the house. Claire soon finds herself in a fog of past and present when her imaginary friend from childhood begins haunting her memories.
Aftermath
Two strangers’ lives become inextricably bound together after a devastating plane crash. Inspired by actual events, Aftermath tells a story of guilt and revenge after an air traffic controller’s (Scoot McNairy) error causes the death of a construction foreman’s (Arnold Schwarzenegger) wife and daughter.
The Eyes
Some say we are only as sick as our secrets, but what if our government really knew those secrets? What if they’ve watched every move we’ve made, and our secrets aren’t really hidden? In The Eyes, six strangers with unspeakable pasts wake up imprisoned in an abandoned warehouse and discover they are being forced to participate in an evil governmental experiment. Five must die. One can live. And THEY have two hours to decide amongst themselves who survives. The clock is ticking, and if they don’t decide… they ALL die. The Eyes shows us that someone is always watching.
