2025 Late Night Film Selections
This year, Nicolas Cage delivers an electrifying performance in The Surfer, a mind-bending psychological thriller where a beachside feud spirals into madness.
Meanwhile, The Ugly Stepsister reimagines Cinderella as a gruesome body horror tale, where one stepsister will go to unthinkable lengths—tapeworms and all—to claim her fairytale ending.
Dark, daring, and deliciously twisted, these films are not for the faint of heart.
