4. “Don’t Turn Out The Lights” (6th September 2024)
Based on a true story, “Don’t Turn Out The Lights” directed by Andy Fickman, is a horror movie that centres on a group of friends who went on a road trip to attend a music festival in 2017.

5. “Creeping Death” (10th September 2024)
Writer-director Matt Sampere makes his feature debut with “Creeping Death,” as he was always interested in slasher films and Halloween.

His plans are quickly disrupted when his friends pay him an unwanted visit after stealing a mysterious sack from the doorstep of a local craze. This sacrilegious act unleashes the Aos Si, a Celtic spirit that walks the earth on Halloween. This chilling experience would be great to introduce the background of Halloween for Malaysians.
