Ahead of its world premiere at Tubi FrightFest Halloween this month, Cinephobia Releasing has shared a trailer and poster for Brute 1986, director Marcel Walz’s blood-soaked sequel to last year’s acclaimed horror homage Brute 1976.
Shifting the action to the glam metal-infused excess of the 1980s, Brute 1986 promises to pay tribute to classic exploitation slashers like Friday the 13th and Maniac, the film sees the return of Dazelle Yvette, Sarah French and Gigi Gustin from Brute 1976, with new additions to the cast including Bill Kaulitz, Pancho Moler, Sarah Kaplan, Heather Grace Hancock and Lew Temple. Rock out with the trailer below…
Following the shocking events of “Brute 1976”, “Brute 1986” picks up one decade later with Leather Kobra, a glam metal band, who are set to begin filming their latest music video in an abandoned Western town. Unfortunately for the band and their crew, the ultra-violent Birdy family has taken up residence nearby. When their paths cross, their video shoot devolves into a night of terror and bloodshed.
Brute 1986 premieres at Tubi FrightFest Halloween on Saturday, October 31st 2026.
