I was contacted by a filmmaker about their latest project, The Isolation Horrors. Basically, it’s an anthology horror movie made in isolation. Furthermore, each of these five filmmakers practiced social distancing and made a movie. Surely, a prime example of putting the current COVID-19 disaster to good use. The premiere of the film arrived on YouTube on Friday 24th April 2020 at 9 pm. Hit the button below to watch the Isolation Horrors for free. What’s more, I’ve checked out the trailer which is featured at the end. Without a doubt, it looks extremely promising. And, who doesn’t like an anthology horror movie?

What is the story behind Isolation Horrors?
Firstly, the horror anthology movie consists of five short films. The rules for the filmmakers went like this:
- The film must be made where you are isolating,
- The short film has to be produced with your mobile device,
- Must be in the horror genre.
The result promises to be a distinct and resourceful cinematic experience. I’m certainly looking forward to seeing the final result considering the limited tech. A new horror anthology movie will be a welcome distraction for horror fans. Especially those waiting patiently for the wheels of delayed and canceled shows and movies all over the world to start moving again. If anything, it will indeed be relatable.
Together with the rest of the filmmakers, producer Nicolai Kornum put the whole thing together. An anthology horror film made in isolation.
