October is here! Which means peak Halloween season is now underway, and that includes the launch of “No Sleep October,” a month-long celebration for Halloween and horror fans alike at Max. Max’s brand new exclusive films, a best-in-class horror library, imaginative curations, and specially designed art featuring iconic stars will keep you busy all month long.
Look for new Max Original Film, Salem’s Lot on October 3. In the film, “Author Ben Mears returns to his childhood home of Jerusalem’s Lot in search of inspiration for his next book only to discover his hometown is being preyed upon by a bloodthirsty vampire.”
Max Original Film Caddo Lake arrives on October 10. “When an eight-year-old girl mysteriously vanishes, a series of past deaths and disappearances start to link together, forever altering a broken family’s history.” Celine Held & Logan George (Topside) wrote and directed for New Line Cinema, and the film is produced by M. Night Shyamalan.
Need more M. Night Shyamalan on your Halloween watchlists? Look for Trap to arrive on Max on October 25, which sees “A father and teen daughter attend a pop concert, where they realize they’re at the center of a dark and sinister event.”
To help viewers plunge into the wide array of films on Max, the platform will feature a lineup of creatively curated film selections including “Screaming Now: Essential Picks,” “Pure Nightmare Fuel,” “Stephen King’s Universe,” and more. Within these choices, fans will find some of their favorite Halloween movies, such as The Shining, The Exorcist, and Scream, all month long. These picks will also include M. Night Shyamalan films along with A24 spine-chillers such as X and MaXXXine, available to stream alone on Max on October 18.
For Saturday nights in, Max will spotlight one special Halloween feature of the week on the homepage, showcasing the best spooky season films available on Max.
