1. Dragonslayer (1981)

Set in a dark, medieval‐fantasy realm, Dragonslayer follows Galen, a young apprentice wizard chosen by mystical forces after his master’s death, who must risk everything to confront Vermithrax Pejorative, an ancient dragon that terrorizes the kingdom of Urland. The kingdom is forced to offer virgins twice a year to appease the dragon. Galen must balance his fear, the moral weight of using magic, and the knowledge that what he’s doing may cost him more than life.

2. Stardust (2007)

From Neil Gaiman’s novel, this is more of a romantic fantasy adventure. The story centers on Tristan, a young man from the village of Wall who promises his beloved Victoria that he’ll fetch a fallen star for her. To do so, he crosses into the magical kingdom of Stormhold. There he discovers the “star” is actually a woman named Yvaine, and many parties—wicked witches, rival princes—are also seeking her for their own ends. Tristan must protect Yvaine, survive the dangers of this magical world, and decide what – and who – truly matters.

3. Hercules (2014)

This version of Hercules, starring Dwayne Johnson, is less myth and more revisionist/adventure. Hercules is a demigod (or claimed to be one), haunted by a tragic past and the legends of his Twelve Labors. He now makes his living as a mercenary, leading a band of skilled fighters. He is hired by King Cotys of Thrace to train the Thracian army to defend against a warlord. As the plot unfolds, betrayals, personal demons, and political intrigue force Hercules to confront not just external enemies, but the mythic reputation he carries and whether he can live up to it (or surpass it).

Sally and Gillian Owens have always known they were different. Raised by their aunts after their parents’ death, the sisters grew up in a household that was anything but typical–their aunts fed them chocolate cake for breakfast and taught them the uses of practical magic.

But the invocation of the Owens’ sorcery also carries a price–some call it a curse: the men they fall in love with are doomed to an untimely death.

Now adult women with very different personalities, the quiet Sally and the fiery Gillian must use all of their powers to fight the family curse and a swarm of supernatural forces that threatens the lives of all the Owens women.

Every year, Screamfest LA shines a light on new voices in horror, and this year one of those voices is New York production company One-Eyed Rabbit. Their short film Clifton Park will have its world premiere at the festival in October 2025.

The story centers on Mari, a college actress who joins The Ambassadors, a theater troupe, for a retreat in upstate New York. The group decides to live in character as they create a play about a real cult. The performance never stops, and Mari is caught between ambition and survival.

The cast brings together Natalie Cabo (Twentysomethings: Austin), Hayley Griffith (Satanic Panic), and Matt Steiner (The Blacklist). Director and co-writer Maren Lavelle, recognized by Shoot Online’s New Directors Showcase, has called the project “a story about theater, sex cults, and gaslighting.”

Fans can watch the trailer now on YouTube. More details about the film, its team, and upcoming screenings are available at one-eyedrabbit.com/clifton-park.
