LOS ANGELES, CA (January XX, 2026) Atlas Distribution Company has acquired film festival favorite, the star-filled irreverent horror comedy “Scared to Death.”  Bald Man Films and Convoke Media present a Mirror Films Production of a Paul Boyd film, written and directed by Scottish filmmaker Paul Boyd (“I, Challenger,” “We Are Gathered Here Today”).  It stars genre legends Lin Shaye (the Insidious franchise) and Bill Moseley (The Devil’s Rejects, Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2), as well as Olivier Paris (The Wrong Tutor), Victoria Konefal (Days of Our Lives), B.J. Minor (Grey’s Anatomy), Jade Chynoweth (The Last Ship), legendary actress  Rae Dawn Chong, Lucinda Jenney (“Practical Magic”), and introducing rock and roll frontman Kurt Deimer as the scene-stealer The Grog. 

Atlas Distribution Company will release the film in cinemas across North America on Friday, March 13th, 2026 in major markets including Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, San Jose, Sacramento, Austin, San Diego, Houston, San Antonio, Miami, Tampa, Boston, Dallas, Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta, Nashville, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Cleveland, and many more.

Joining the ranks of epic horror films that sprang (albeit loosely) from true-life occurrences “The Exorcist,” “Jaws,” “The Amityville Horror,” A Nightmare on Elm Street,” and cult classic horror comedies “Young Frankenstein” “Shaun of the Dead,” and “Slither,” “Scared to Death” is a hell of a cinematic ride.

“The comedy came naturally from the conflict,” Boyd says. “Genre parody, with humor and horror closely linked. We wanted to deliver an enjoyable feast for audiences.”

In “Scared to Death,” a group of filmmakers attend a séance at an abandoned children’s orphanage to do research for a horror movie. Soon, supernatural events begin to manifest, in both horrific and darkly comical fashion. That’s their first mistake.

“To be honest, I never thought about shooting a horror film specifically,” producer Eric Barrett says. “I’m drawn to excellent storytelling, no matter the genre. What I like about this film is that it does cross into comedy, which is a fine line with horror.”

“Scared to Death delivers the kind of spine-tingling experience horror fans crave, while offering a fresh take on the haunted-house genre,” said Harmon Kaslow, President of Atlas Distribution Company. “With icons like Lin Shaye and Bill Moseley leading the cast, audiences are in for a terrifying and unforgettable ride.”

“Scared to Death” features a wealth of talent both onscreen and behind the camera. The film stars Lin Shaye, Bill Moseley, Olivier Paris, Victoria Konefal, B.J.Minor, Jade Chynoweth, Kurt Deimer, Lucinda Jenney, Rae Dawn Chong, Matt Carmody, Joline Towers, Alicia Tomasko, and Mair Flores. The filmmaking team is helmed by director Paul Boyd, producer Eric Barrett, Executive Producers Kurt Deimer, Peter Tochet, Lin Shaye, and Steven Poster, ASC, casting by Lindsay Chag, CSA, edited by Ed Shiers, cinematography by Steven Poster, ASC, music composer Misha Segal, Production Design by Scott Campbell and featuring original songs by Kurt Deimer.

KURT DEIMER live in concert:

In a few short years, Kurt Deimer has been making a name for himself in both the hard rock scene and horror film world. The Cincinnati native with a distinguishing deep voice started his first rock band at age 20 but then pivoted to a more conventional business path. In 2018, he inadvertently revived one of his artistic dreams and kickstarted his flourishing acting career with an appearance in John Carpenter’s Halloween revival, portraying a pivotal role alongside Jamie Lee Curtis and facing off against the infamous Michael Myers, and landing a cameo in the John Travolta racing drama Trading Paint. Soon after, Deimer officially introduced himself in 2021 as a musician and songwriter with the release of his original, vibrant rock music. The multi-talent, who also spearheads his own horror movie franchise “Hellbilly Hollow” as both star and producer, continues to up his game to the next level with every project he does. All in all, Kurt Deimer’s mission is to connect with people – connect with their lives, get to know who they are, and bring them hope – no matter what he’s doing.
