Fantastic Fest is returning to Austin, Texas, this fall, taking over the Alamo Drafthouse South Lamar from September 17-24, 2026. As always, the festival is packed with world premieres, major genre releases and the kind of completely unexpected discoveries that make it one of our favorite places to find what’s next in horror.
We dug through this year’s massive lineup and pulled out a handful of films we’re particularly excited about, including the World Premiere of Pathetic Fallacy.
Directed by Adam Egypt Mortimer (Daniel Isn’t Real, Archenemy), the psychedelic supernatural odyssey stars Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi and Jessica Rothe (Happy Death Day).
The 98-minute film follows a man reeling from the devastating loss of his wife who embarks on a surreal journey to somehow bring her back.
Who doesn’t wanna see Mortimer get weird and psychedelic with Mescudi and Rothe?
