Exclusive: Film Seekers has boarded indie flick Bad Haircut from filmmaker Kyle Misak and will launch sales at the upcoming Cannes Market.

The film follows Billy, a socially awkward college student who hits rock bottom after a humiliating encounter at a party.

The synopsis reads: Billy’s two closest friends decide it’s time for him to get a new look and take him to their barber, the wildly eccentric and possibly deranged Mick. What starts as a simple haircut quickly spirals into a surreal nightmare. Trapped in a barbershop turned battleground, Billy is forced to confront more than just his insecurities.

Bad Haircut stars Spencer Harrison Levin as Billy and Frankie Ray as Mick. The supporting cast includes TikToker Nora Freetly, Martin Klebba (Pirates of the Caribbean), Jake Busey (Starship Troopers), Mindy Sterling (Austin Powers), Larry Hankin (Friends), and Kevin Dunn.

“We’re thrilled to introduce Bad Haircut to the international market,...

"The Amityville Horror" is one of the definitive haunted house films, a classic tale about paranormal activity terrorizing a suburban family with swarming flies, mysterious voices, and sudden illness. Even the windows resemble ominous eyes peering down on the unsuspecting victims. The movie taps into the religious undertones popularized by other 1970s releases such as "The Exorcist" and "The Omen," suggesting there is a Satanic force at work that must be destroyed.

Eventually, the new owners George and Kathy Lutz discover the horrifying history of their new home: Ronald DeFeo Jr. murdered his entire family with a rifle one year prior, a Satanic worshipper named John Ketchum once lived on the land, and the house itself was built on a Shinnecock burial ground.

Despite receiving mixed reviews for elements like the cheesy portrayal of a possessed George, "The Amityville Horror" ended up having a significant impact on the horror genre.
