Coming 7/8/25 from Kino.

What silent terror lies within the walls of a gloomy old Victorian mansion by the sea? Unable to get housing on campus, young co-ed Scotty (Rebecca Balding, The Boogens) finds a vacancy at the Engels’ mansion, now a boarding house for college students. Mrs. Engels (Yvonne DeCarlo, TV’s The Munsters) and her son seem nice enough, but it soon becomes clear to Scotty that something is not right at her new residence. When her fellow boarders begin to get brutally butchered, two detectives (comedian Avery Schreiber and The Toolbox Murders’ Cameron Mitchell) must solve the mystery of the Engels’ boarding house before the body count rises. Written and produced by Ken and Jim Wheat, the creative team behind Nightmare on Elm Street 4, The Fly II and Pitch Black, and featuring horror icon Barbara Steele (Black Sunday, The Crimson Cult) in an unforgettable role, the bloodcurdling Silent Scream was one of the most successful, stylish and subversive independent horror movies of the slasher era.
