The 11th Popcorn Frights Film Festival will be a hybrid experience presenting both in-theater and virtual film offerings from August 7-17, 2025
Popcorn Frights is going out with a high-gloss scream as it proudly announces the U.S. Premiere of SHELL as its official Closing Night selection. Directed by Max Minghella (TEEN SPIRIT), this genre-bending vision will cap off the 11-day horror celebration taking place August 7-17, 2025, across South Florida and online nationwide.
SHELL stars Elisabeth Moss and Kate Hudson in a deliciously twisted take on the beauty industry, fame, and self-reinvention. Down on her luck actress Samantha Lake (Moss) is invited into the ultra-glamorous world of Zoe Shannon (Hudson), CEO of health & wellness company Shell. But when Shell patients start to go missing, Samantha realizes Shell may be protecting a monstrous secret.
Following its World Premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, SHELL’s Popcorn Frights debut marks its first U.S. screening, further cementing the festival’s reputation as a premier destination for bold, visionary genre cinema.
Recognized by MovieMaker Magazine as one of the “25 Coolest Film Festivals in the World,” Popcorn Frights returns for its eleventh edition with a hybrid format, presenting 58 feature film premieres, immersive experiences, and special presentations with appearances by iconic filmmakers and stars.
A Third Wave of programming announcements is still to come, promising even more cinematic mayhem!
