With more terror than ever before on Africa's first curated video on demand service dedicated to horror, thriller, sci-fi and everything in-between, winter is the perfect time to settle in for your dose of fear on demand.

DON'T CLICK (7 July)

Using found footage, the film is about a forbidden video that curses people to death, directed by Kim Tae-Kyung. The video is revealed to be a series of 108 clips which change content after each viewing.

THE GUARD POST (14 July)

Directed by Gong Su-chang, a squad of Korean soldiers is sent to investigate a guard post that overlooks the DMZ. Seemingly deserted at first, the squad eventually discovers mysterious corpses and body parts strewn all throughout the post. Amidst the horrible scene, they discover one survivor with a bloody axe in his hand, but soon he falls into a coma, leaving more questions unanswered.

POSSESSED (21 July)

After Hee-jin's younger sister So-jin, who is possessed by a spirit, disappears, the neighbours die one by one and a secret underlying their deaths is revealed.

GONJINAM (28 July)

This film follows the crew of a horror web series who travels to an abandoned asylum for a live broadcast. They soon encounter much more than expected as they move deeper inside the nightmarish old building. 

Additional films coming to the streaming platform include Los Olvidados, Inbred, Flight 7500, The Visions, The Astral and Dark Skies.
