On April 28th, we're a third into 2026, and horrors already dropping bangers. Leading the pack is hoke him, hitting theaters this Friday, May 1st, with a 94% rotten tomato score, the highest so far. It stars Adam Scott as a novelist, scattering his parents' ashes at a remote inn, where witch tales and visions drag him into his dark past. Director Damien McCarthy, him this one, fresh off his 2024 hit Audity, which scored 96%. He's got a knack for creepy vibes, and critics are eating up hoke him, just like his last join. Fans and reviewers are buzzing, putting it ahead of other big releases like Send Help and 93% and 28 years later, The Bone. Temple at 92%. Lower down? We've got WeBerry The Dead at 88. Primate at 78, and a few others in the 70s. No audience scores yet, but with Austin Amelio from The Walking Dead in the mix, and Scott killing it post-severance, word of mouth should push it. Higher. Stars like Rachel McCatams and Send Help are shining too, but hoke him standing tall.

Catch it in theaters before it streams. It's primed to hold that top spot all year. That's your update from Entertainment and Celebrity News. Today, Power by AI.
