Writer/director Matt Sampere is bringing a new kind of supernatural creature to the horror genre with his feature film debut Creeping Death. Based on his short film of the same name, Sampere creates a supernatural slasher based around the Celtic spirit Aos Si who enters our world on Halloween night.

Read the full synopsis below:

Halloween was always Tim’s favorite holiday—until his mother was diagnosed with cancer. Now, all he wants is a quiet night in. That is quickly disrupted when his friends pay him an unwanted visit after stealing a mysterious sack from the doorstep of a local crazy. This sacrilegious act unleashes the Aos Si, a Celtic spirit that walks the earth on Halloween. They must band together and survive the night or make the ultimate offering… their lives.

In our exclusive clip, a member of the group loses their head… literally!

Watch now:

“Since I was a kid, I’ve always loved slasher films and celebrating Halloween,” says Sampere. “I knew I wanted to dive into the holiday’s lore for my first feature, and that’s how I learned about the Aos Si—vengeful spirits related to trick or treating in Celtic mythology. Creeping Death is the first supernatural slasher to incorporate this deity. I hope viewers enjoy my love letter to Halloween, its traditions, and a warning to those who trick.”

A callback to terrors birthed in the mythology of Halloween, Sampere stars in Creeping Death with Monique Parent, Alan Maxson, Delian Lincourt, Hunter Kohl, Ian Brown, Elise Rackemann, K Cody Hunt, Andy Horowitz, Jody Pucello and Scott Lea.

Sampere produced the film with Jason Scott Goldberg (Glorious), Erika McGowan, Brenda Block, and Tyler Dane Sutton.

Creeping Death comes exclusively to SCREAMBOX on September 10, 2024.
