From the writer of “Cocaine Bear” (2023), Jimmy Warden, comes a wacky genre-melting pot in the form of “Borderline” (2025), a horror comedy thriller directed by Warden, focusing on the stalker and pop star dynamic and pushing that premise to an absolute breaking point.
Borderline (2025) Plot Summary & Movie Synopsis Who is Paul Duerson?
The movie begins at the end—Paul Duerson (Ray Nicholson) finally marrying his favorite pop star and the love of his life, Sofia (Samara Weaving), before Paul’s voiceover takes us back to the beginning. That would be his first attempt at marrying Sofia. Duerson’s fandom, as it turned out, is quite well known, especially to everyone within Sofia’s vicinity. In Duerson’s imagination, he and Sofia had been together for quite a while, and now asking the question was inevitable.
But this highly active imagination blurred Paul’s reality, whereby he would forget whether he had...

Borderline wants to be a chaotic thrill ride—a pulpy, twisted home-invasion thriller where a deranged stalker traps a pop star in his delusion of love. And in flashes, it gets there. But for a movie with such an unhinged premise, it feels strangely restrained, like it’s holding back when it should be cranking the tension up to eleven. The performances are solid, the setup is fun, and Penny (Alba Baptista) nearly steals the whole show, but Borderline never fully embraces the madness it promises.
Written and directed by Jimmy Warden in his feature debut, the film is set in 1990s Los Angeles and follows Sofia (Samara Weaving), a pop star whose home is invaded by Duerson (Ray Nicholson), an obsessive fan convinced they are destined to be together. Duerson isn’t working alone—his equally deranged accomplices, Penny and J.H. (Patrick Cox), broke out of a psychiatric facility with him,...

Plot: Follows a dangerously persistent stalker (Ray Nicholson) who invades the home of a ‘90s pop superstar (Samara Weaving) with grand delusions of a wedding. With her life on the line and help from her loyal bodyguard, she must escape the stalker’s sinister grip before they tie the knot
Review: Samara Weaving is a staple of the horror genre at this point. It’s not a matter of if she’ll star in a new horror movie, it’s always when. Because there are few actresses that have shown the genre as much love as Weaving, and fans have returned the favor. Now, she’s taking on a less flashy role and allowing the actors around her to really shine. Borderline rides the line between more than just damaged personalities, and skirts so many genres, it almost takes on the same quality of its stalker lead. And as such,...

When Stephen King beams about a new horror project, hardened genre fans take note. On October 10, 2024, the preeminent horror scribe took to X and professed his adoration for Teacup, a Peacock original horror series that premiered the same day. With two episodes released one week apart, the 8-episode TV event has not resonated as well among critics and general horror fans as with King.
Based on the 1988 novel Stinger by Robert McCammon, Teacup concerns a band of neighbors forced to cooperate and find a means of survival when a fatal force marauds their rural Georgia landscape. Although Stephen King has voiced a high opinion of the show, Teacup has been criticized as little more than an ersatz Walking Dead meets The Crazies mashup that neither terrifies nor adds much to the genre.

Oona Chaplin has revealed that her new Netflix spy drama Treason was originally supposed to end quite differently.
Chaplin stars as Maddy, a former army medic and wife of high-flying MI6 operative Adam Lawrence (Charlie Cox), in the recently released series.
*Warning – Major spoilers ahead for the Treason finale*
In a major twist, Treason kills off its lead star, Cox, midway through the final episode.
Chaplin told The Independent in an interview that the series’ producers had to call her while they were halfway through shooting to let her know that the ending had been changed.
“I know that they were kind of toing and froing about it because nobody really wants to kill Charlie Cox,” she said of the decision.
“But they called me and they said, ‘Okay, brace yourself. Are you sitting down? We've made a change. This is what's happening.’ And I was like, you’ve got...

Smt Heads, Summer is more than half over. But with Music Box Films’ The Captain, you’re still getting coolest in the upcoming indie film. Also, don’t miss the soft breeze of Mary Queen Of Scots with Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie. Not mention 80’s homage, Breakarate!
Based on a disturbing true story, The Captain follows Willi Herold (Max Hubacher), a German army deserter who stumbles across an abandoned Nazi captain’s uniform during the last, desperate weeks of the Third Reich. Newly emboldened by the allure of a suit that he stole only to stay warm, Willi discovers that many Germans will follow the leader, whosoever that happens to be. A parade of fresh atrocities follow in the self-declared captain’s wake, and serve as a profound reminder of the consequences of social conformity and untrammeled political power.
