Shudder has dropped the trailer for Mother of Flies, a new folk horror movie which will release on Shudder on January 23, 2026.
“Mickey (Zelda Adams) faces a deadly diagnosis, but she isn’t ready to die yet. Heading into the woods with her father (John Adams), she seeks dark magic at the hands of mysterious recluse, Solveig (Toby Poser), who has an intimate relationship with death and roots that go deep in the land,” reads the film’s official synopsis. “For three days, Mickey endures Solveig’s extreme rituals of death magic. But every cure has its cost, and every curse is another’s gift. As buried secrets claw their way to the surface, the veil between the living and the dead begins to unravel, and Mickey finds herself facing dark truths that only the dead and the dying can know.”
