UK independent films released in 2024 achieved a 1.7% share of the worldwide box office, an increase from 0.9% in 2023.

The total gross for the top 10 UKindependent films was $329m – more than three times the $98m recorded by the top 10 in 2023.

Conclave was the best performing UK independent film released in 2024, grossing $75m across 11 territories. (This figure is now $110m as over March 2025). The UK producer was House Productions.

Studiocanal and Universal’s Back To Black (produced by Monumental Films) was the second highest-grossing UK independent film of 2024, with $49.1m from 18 territories, followed by One Life(See-Saw Picture)with $40.5m from 17 territories, released by a variety of distributors,...

Among a top 10 list mostly populated by holiday films, this year's Cuckoo has claimed the fourth position on Hulu's most-viewed feature list. The horror landed on the streamer on December 17. The underrated flick, starring Hunter Schafer (Euphoria) and Dan Stevens (Legion), follows 17-year-old Gretchen (Schafer) who moves to the German Alps to live with her estranged father, Luis (Marton Csokas), and his young wife and their child. Once there, Gretchen realizes nothing is as it appears and soon finds herself ensnared in a dangerous game — one that often seems like a mind-bending nightmare — orchestrated by her father's boss, Mr. König (Stevens).

Cuckoo is a blend of psychological horror, family drama, and body horror, exploring themes of family, identity, and autonomy. Directed by German filmmaker Tilman Singer (Luz), the Neon film failed to impress at the box office, grossing only $6.7 million against a $7 million budget, but fared fairly well with critics.

When I saw on Deadline that filming has wrapped on an action thriller called Turbulence, my first thought was, “Is it a remake?” This despite the fact that there have been multiple films with the title Turbulence over the years. I thought it might have something to do with the 1997 film with the title, which starred Lauren Holly as a flight attendant stuck on a plane with a serial killer played by Ray Liotta. As it turns out, the new Turbulence doesn’t have anything to do with that franchise… but it is a hot air balloon thriller that stars Olga Kurylenko (Quantum of Solace) and Kelsey Grammer (Frasier), so it might make for an interesting viewing experience.

Coming our way from the team behind the recent action film No Way Up, including director Claudio Faeh (Northmen: A Viking Saga) and writer Andy Mayson, who is also producing the film,...

Exclusive: Filming has wrapped in the UK on under-the-radar action-thriller Turbulence, starring Olga Kurylenko (Oblivion), Jeremy Irvine (Treadstone), Hera Hilmar (See) and Kelsey Grammer (Frasier).

The renaissance of sharksploitation films continues, as Variety is reporting that MCU star Ioan Gruffudd and DCs Ross Butler are set to team up for the new thriller, Zipline. Gruffudd portrayed Reed Richards in 2005s Fantastic Four and its 2007 sequel, while Butler recently appeared in both Shazam! and Shazam! Fury of the Gods as Superhero Eugene.

Directed by Magnus Martens (Fear the Walking Dead) and written by George Mahaffey Jr. (Chief of Station), Zipline also stars Holland Roden and Sonia Ammar. Produced by Simple House Films, international rights are held by Black Bear, who will be presenting it to buyers at the American Film Market later this month. Based on the synopsis alone, it appears to be a fun flick which combines some of our favorite things, including a tropical setting, a ticking-clock premise, and, of course, sharks.

After more than 30 years in Hollywood, there isnt much Aaron Eckhart hasnt done, and now the veteran actor is back at it again in Classified, the new action-thriller from director Roel Rein that promises to be one heck of a tense ride. Eckhart stars alongside Abigail Breslin and Tim Roth as a CIA agent whose daughter an MI6 analyst tracks him down and tells him nothing is as it seems, and that his boss has been dead for years. They then set out to find out who has actually been giving him his instructions all this time, leading to a shocking discovery that uncovers a dark web of secrets.

In an explosive new clip from Classified (seen below), we see Eckhart at an outdoor restaurant with a concerned look on his face as he asks a waitress to use the phone. After an anxious conversation with an unknown speaker that...

The character of Transporter Chief Miles O'Brien (Colm Meaney) first appeared in "Encounter at Farpoint," the pilot episode of "Star Trek: The Next Generation." For many episodes, he was basically a background character, usually present to deliver a line or two of techno-jargon and to beam the senior staff from the ship to a planet and back. With each appearance, though, audiences began to get more details about O'Brien's life. He used to build ships in bottles as a boy, for instance. O'Brien would marry and have a child. All told, O'Brien appeared in 52 episodes of the show, sometimes starring in his own stories. 

The character became popular enough to be carried over to "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" in 1993, on which he was a regular character. On "Deep Space Nine," O'Brien became even more awesome, serving as the chief engineer on the station, having to familiarize himself with dated Cardassian technology,...

Get ready to take a deep dive into terror with The Last Breath, the latest shark-infested horror film from acclaimed Swedish director Joachim Hedén. Rlje Films has just released the official trailer for this white-knuckle thriller, set to debut in select US theatres and on VOD on July 26, 2024, and 1st July in the UK and Ireland.

The Last Breath tells the harrowing tale of a group of divers who find themselves trapped in the wreckage of the USS Charlotte, a WWII battleship lost for 80 years. Their adventure begins with the excitement of a once-in-a-lifetime dive but quickly spirals into a nightmare as they realise they are not alone in the underwater labyrinth. Surrounded by great white sharks and with their air supply dwindling, the group faces a desperate fight for survival.

The narrative centres around Levi, a British expat diver played by the late Julian Sands (A Room with a View...

Shark Week has nebulous origins but remains one of Discovery Channel's most popular events. As the years passed, Shark Week became more than a TV block. It raises the question of whether Shark Week can be considered a holiday and what it means.

As Shark Week approaches with all the excitement and energy of a great white's feeding frenzy, it prompts reflection on how this unique holiday surfaced. For countless cultures, sharks have always inspired as much fear as they do reverence, representing humanity's fascination with the oceans and the wondrous marine life that inhabits them. However, as sharks continue to lurk in the depths of the imagination and make headlines globally, it becomes as clear as the Caribbean Sea why audiences still celebrate Shark Week. Moreover, Shark Week raises questions about the meaning of one of TV's strangest traditions and whether it merits recognition as an actual holiday.

Dneg, the London-headquartered visual effects and animation house that has won Oscars for the likes of Denis Villeneuve’s Dune and Netflix’s Stranger Things, said Tuesday it secured a $200 million investment from the Abu Dhabi-based United Al Saqar Group.

No Way Up offers a fresh take on shark movies by highlighting tension outside of the sharks themselves. No Way Up adds complexity by exploring mental health and survival challenges, unlike most shark movies. No Way Up differs from its predecessors by balancing serious tones with humor, romance, and sociopolitical commentary.

The following contains spoilers for No Way Up, now playing in theaters and on video on demand.

When it comes to shark movies, the genre has been defined by two eras. The first applies to the classic 1970s and 1980s where Jaws molded the concept of being afraid to go in the water. While the sequels were iffy, at best, the Steven Spielberg original movie remains a classic to this day.

The second era is the modern one that started in the 2010s and 2020s, where The Meg is the shark franchise that stands out most with its sci-fi...

No Way Up has an intriguing premise that seems to be a new take on the shark attack subgenre of horror. Ufortunately, this thriller sinks more often than it swims. The movie opens with a riff on Final Destination, and it's a well-done sequence of carnage, but it fails to live up to its premise. There are so many choices made that hinder No Way Up's chance at greatness, like characters who are given development but then abruptly taken away. Sharks get onto a plane in No Way Up, but the film is more comfortable with sitting in its own mediocrity than using this schlocky selling point to stand out.

No Way Up follows Ava, the daughter of a billionaire who is about to embark on a trip to Mexico with her boyfriend Jed (Jeremias Amoore), his buddy Kyle (Will Attenborough), and Ava's bodyguard Brandon (Colm Meaney). Unfortunately, the...

Fresh off recent releases including Deep Fear (Netflix) and No Way Up (VOD), another shark attack horror movie is headed our way here in 2024. It’s titled Something in the Water.

In the upcoming aquatic horror movie from Studiocanal, “An idyllic destination wedding turns into a battle for survival. The film follows Meg, who tentatively attends the wedding of old friend Lizzie in the Caribbean along with fellow pals Cam and Ruth, plus her former partner Kayla who she parted ways with after both survived a deeply traumatic event.”

Naturally, the wedding party is invaded by hungry sharks and all hell breaks loose.

Watch the official trailer for Something in the Water below, which swims into UK theaters on July 5, 2024. We don’t yet have a United States release date for this one, but stay tuned.

Hayley Easton Street directed Something in the Water.

Cat Clarke wrote the screenplay.

After dipping into the world of H.P. Lovecraft in Re-Animator (listen) and checking out an early adaptation of The Portrait of Dorian Gray (listen), somehow we’re already on our third episode of February. And while the holiday doesn’t line up, we couldn’t pass up a chance to revisit Friday the 13th (2009) for its fifteenth anniversary.

In the Marcus Nispel remake, a group of friends travel to the palatial country house of Trent (Travis Van Winkle) near what was once Camp Crystal Lake. As Trent’s girlfriend Jenna (Danielle Panabaker) bonds with Clay (Jared Padalecki) over the disappearance of his sister Whitney (Amanda Righetti), their friends Chewie (Aaron Yoo), Bree (Julianna Guill), Lawrence (Arlen Escarpeta), Nolan (Ryan Hansen) and Chelsea (Willa Ford) are being picked off one by one by Jason Voorhees (Derek Mears).

Who will survive their encounter with survivalist Jason? Can anything top the...

No Way Up is a gripping survival thriller that takes viewers through the chaotic aftermath of a plane crash. With a journey to Cabo turning into a nightmare, the characters find themselves in a desperate struggle against nature, facing the daunting challenge of surviving in the harsh environment of the Pacific Ocean. Claudio Fäh’s action thriller film skillfully portrays the intense struggle of the survivors as they battle to keep their heads above water amidst the plane wreckage and constant shark attacks. With each passing moment, the air reduces and the risks escalate, challenging the characters to their core and putting their determination to survive to the ultimate test.

Although No Way Up impresses with its intense thrills and gripping scenes, some viewers might feel a thirst for more insight into the characters’ survival skills. While the beginning of the film hints at the psychological toll of facing extreme challenges,...

“No Way Up” is a new killer shark drama feature, directed by Claudio Fäh, starring Phyllis Logan, Colm Meaney, Will Attenborough and James Carroll, opening February 16, 2024 in theaters:

“…characters from very different backgrounds are thrown together when the plane they’re travelling on crashes into the Pacific Ocean.

“When the airliner comes to rest perilously close to the edge of a ravine with the surviving passengers and crew trapped in an air pocket, a nightmare fight for survival ensues with the air supply running out and dangers creeping in from all sides…”

Click the images to enlarge…...

How can a "plane crash shark attack" movie be this sinfully dull? Claudio Fäh's No Way Up swings for the moon with its sunken premise but doesn't fulfill much of the B-Movie potential this fin-slash-disaster flick promises. Writer Andy Mayson transports viewers to the bottom of the sea in an unpredictable fashion, but the vacation nightmare’s swerve into chompy aquatic horror doesn’t blend into storytelling all that well. Fäh and Mayson desperately attempt to make No Way Up more than just an eye-catching poster that sounds hatched from a 30 Rock character's pitch, only to run out of storytelling steam in record time.

Mayson begins with a sparsely booked flight bound for Cabo that suffers catastrophic engine damage caused by a now-mincemeat flock of birds. Shrapnel tears free, piercing the plane's fuselage and blowing a hole wide open that sucks passengers out while the aircraft plummets downward into the Pacific Ocean.

We’ve had sharks in an underwater lab, a grocery store, a river, sand, and snow, as well as toxic sharks and ghost sharks. So what could possibly be left to do with sharks that hasn’t been done before? Take the concept of putting our sharp-finned friends in a plane and mix that in a blender with a disaster flick premise to serve you No Way Up from Rlje Films.

A flock of birds fly into the engine of a plane carrying a small group of people to Cabo, causing it to nosedive into the ocean. Too bad this plane was not piloted by Sully Sullenberger to help with a safe landing. Due to the initial impact of hitting the water or straight up drowning, most of the passengers are killed in the descent; especially one unfortunate soul who shows why you should not head to the bathroom when...

Rlje Films isn’t waiting for the summer to release their latest shark attack horror movie, with No Way Up now playing in select theaters and available on VOD outlets at home.

This one comes courtesy of the producers of 47 Meters Down, and it looks like they’re aiming to recapture that vibe. Watch an exclusive clip below to begin the feeding frenzy.

In No Way Up…

“When a plane crashes in the Pacific Ocean and comes to rest on the edge of an underwater ravine, the survivors face a race against time to escape the airlocked galley they are trapped in.”

Sophia McIntosh, Colm Meaney, Phyllis Logan, Grace Nettle and Will Attenborough star.

Claudio Fäh directed the film, which was written by Andy Mayson.

Other upcoming shark attack horrors on our radar include the Japanese movie Hot Springs Shark Attack, 1940s period piece Fear Below, and the World War II-set Beast of War.

Stars: Jeremias Amoore, Will Attenborough, Sophie McIntosh, Colm Meaney, Phyllis Logan, James Carrol Jordan, Grace Nettle, Manuel Pacific | Written by Andy Mayson | Directed by Claudio Fäh

The poster for No Way Up says that it’s from the executive producers of the 47 Meters Down series. That’s not a good sign because it means it’s from the money men behind those films, not the writers, directors or any of the creative types. This time around, they’ve decided to offer their finny cash cows an all-you-can-eat buffet and, taking a cue from Airport 77, they’ve crashed an airliner into the Pacific. That leaves the survivors trapped on the ocean floor in a rapidly shrinking air pocket and surrounded by sharks.

As No Way Up starts things are already looking bad for Jed and Kyle. Kyle’s date for their trip to Cabo backed out at the last minute.

British Buggery.

After closing out January with the very gay (and very terrible) The Covenant (listen) and the pseudo-remake of Single White Female: The Roommate (listen), we kicked off February with journey to the world of H.P. Lovecraft in Re-Animator. Now, we’re traveling back in time to discuss Albert Lewin‘s 1945 adaptation of The Portrait of Dorian Gray.

In The Picture of Dorian Gray, Lord Henry Wotton (George Sanders), tells his friend Dorian Gray (Hurd Hatfield) that men should pursue their sensual longings, but laments that only the young get to do so. Taken with the idea, Dorian inadvertently makes a Faustian bargain to stay young forever. His wish comes true, and his boyish looks aid him as he indulges his every whim. Unfortunately, his sins take physical form on a portrait of himself, and as the years go by he must decide what type of man he wants to be.

Silly Done Right

January featured plenty of highs and lows on Horror Queers. We started with the brilliant sequel Hellbound: Hellraiser 2 (listen) and the silly subversiveness of German film Killer Condom (listen). Then we descended into trash for two weeks with The Covenant (listen) and The Roommate (listen).

Thankfully we wrapped the month on a high with Stuart Gordon‘s playful, gory and mean-spirited adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft‘s Re-Animator (1985).

Featuring a career defining performance by Jeffrey Combs, the film follows eccentric burgeoning scientist Herbert West (Combs) as he befriends/seduces aspiring doctor Dan Cain (Bruce Abbott), much to the chagrin of Dan’s girlfriend, Megan (Barbara Crampton) and her secret admirer, creepy Dr. Hill (David Gale).

As the experiments – and the corpses – begin to pile up, it’s unclear who the real villain is. Will Herbert successfully test his serum? Will Dan live to become a doctor? Or...
