News: Shudder Delivers Halloween Scares With New Original Movies Weekly the Month of October

New Additions for October 2018

JOHN CARPENTER’S HALLOWEEN (1978) — available Monday, October 1
Before you experience David Gordon Green’s 2018 Halloween—a direct sequel to Carpenter’s original, set 40 years later—revisit the classic that popularized the “slasher” genre and introduced the world to Michael Myers.

NEW SERIES
TRUE HORROR – available Thursday, October 4
Each episode tells one real horror story, based on true testimonies, brought to life through straight-to-camera documentary interviews and beautiful scripted drama. The spine of each film is the gripping retrospective narrative of a series of traumatic events and horrifying happenings — inexplicable paranormal activity and weird ghostly goings-on — which happened to real, ordinary people. A SHUDDER EXCLUSIVE SERIES

CHANNEL ZERO: BUTCHER’S BLOCK – available Thursday, October 25
The third installment of the hit Creepypasta anthology series introduces Alice and Zoe Woods, sisters who have moved to a small town to start over—but instead encounter the hellish neighborhood of Butcher’s Block, home to sinister Joseph Peach and his eerily charismatic family. Directed by Arkasha Stevenson, starring Holland Roden, Olivia Luccardi, Rutger Hauer, Krisha Fairchild and Brandon Scott. ONLY ON SHUDDER

(September 10, 2018, New York, N.Y.) – Shudder is all you need to get your fill of frights this Halloween season. With a new scary movie premiering every week, the leading premium streaming service for thriller, suspense, and horror kicks off the fun beginning September 10 and running through Halloween.

“We’re taking Halloween to an unprecedented level this year with a killer lineup of seven original and exclusive films that starts with the breakout movie REVENGE and culminates with the shocking slasher SUMMER OF 84,” said Shudder General Manager Craig Engler. “We’re also premiering the hit U.K. series True Horror, launching season 3 of Channel Zero and bringing back amazing classics like John Carpenter’s Halloween and a massive Hitchcock collection.”

The season begins with Shudder’s VENGEANCE IS HERS collection on September 10. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, and the femme fatales of these films are no exception. Headlining the collection is REVENGE, a Shudder Original that delivers a razor-sharp feminist subversion of the revenge-thriller, available starting September 13.

Weekly new releases continue with HELL HOUSE LLC II: THE ABADDON HOTEL on September 20, CHANNEL ZERO: NO-END HOUSE on September 27, SATAN’S SLAVES and TRUE HORROR on October 4, TERRIFIED on October 11, WITCH IN THE WINDOW on October 18, and CHANNEL ZERO: BUTCHER’S BLOCK and SUMMER OF 84 on October 25.

Shudder also has a killer classics selection in October with THE HALLOWEEN COLLECTION, available October 1, featuring John Carpenter’s landmark film Halloween plus Halloween 4, Halloween 5, and Tobe Hooper’s legendary film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The very next day, Shudder delivers a treasure trove of tales from the master of suspense himself. THE ALFRED HITCHCOCK COLLECTION, debuting October 2, includes Psycho, Vertigo, Rear Window, The Birds, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Rope, and Shadow of a Doubt.

Throughout Halloween season, engage with @SHUDDER on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube for access to polls, quizzes, contests, and extra programming content.
