Black Fawn Distribution has just released the white-knuckled new trailer and festival posters for the Giallo-inspired revenge film Death Cycle. The film stars Kristen Kaster (A Knight’s War, Death Valley), Matthew Ninaber (Psycho Goreman), Sasha Ormond, and Justin Bott while also marking the return of director Gabriel Carrer (For The Sake Of Vicious, The Demolisher) to festival screens worldwide. The gasoline-drenched trailer for Death Cycle drops ahead of the film’s world premiere at FrightFest UK on August 24, 2025 in London, England. The film will also screen at this year’s Sitges Film Festival in Spain.

Produced by Latefox Pictures, High Rise Studio, and Chrono Visor Images, Death Cycle follows a woman who, following the death of her sister, is visited by a man investigating a series of brutal murders committed by a motorcycle maniac. As their shared fear grows, the killer’s rampage continues, leaving them both questioning who the real monster is. The film was written by Dave McLeod.
“With our festival run about to commence, the Death Cycle team is ecstatic to have our world premiere at the legendary FrightFest UK. It’s been a dream of ours from the moment Dave McLeod wrote the script,” explains director Gabriel Carrer. “Given the film’s deep Giallo roots, and my personal connection to Italian cinema through my family, it felt only right to debut the film in Europe.”
The film has also recently been acquired by Uncork’d Entertainment for USA and the Philippines while Black Fawn Distribution is slated to release the film across Canada in 2026.
“Gabriel Carrer has crafted a sharp, uncompromising thriller with Death Cycle, a film that masterfully blends giallo style with modern slasher brutality,” says Keith Leopard, president of Uncork’d Entertainment. “We’re thrilled to bring this bold, blood-soaked vision to audiences in 2026.”
“We’ve been long-time collaborators with Latefox so, this new release feels special,” states Black Fawn Distribution’s president Chad Archibald. “They’ve got a rich history of creating stylish, visceral, and dynamic features and we’re proud to have them call Black Fawn Distro home for their Canadian release.”
Death Cycle is produced by Gabriel Carrer, Matthew Ninaber, John Ainslie, Dave McLeod, and Andy Wolting and marks the first collaboration between Latefox Pictures and High Rise Studio.
World sales for Death Cycle are being handled by Chad Archibald of Black Fawn Distribution.
