An homage to films including Hellraiser, The Thing, Alien, and The Exorcist, upcoming horror movie Thorns is said to be “ripe with physical makeup effects and plenty of gore,” both of which have been on full display in all the imagery we’ve seen so far. Bloody Disgusting has now been provided with several more first-look images, exclusively being shared below.
From director Douglas Schulze (The Dark Below, Hellmaster, Mimesis), Thorns features horror icon Doug Bradley (Hellraiser), said to be playing a “mysterious archbishop.”

In Thorns, “An ex-priest working for NASA is sent to investigate a remote observatory that went silent after receiving a mysterious radio signal from deep space. Upon arrival, he discovers the signal has opened a portal unleashing a thorned monster. The former priest must now summon his lost faith to stop the signal from jumpstarting the end of the world.”
“The film melds themes of religion and science within the framework of a classic ’80s-era monster movie,” Douglas Schulze recently told Tony Timpone over at Gruesome Magazine.
Thorns is looking to release sometime in late 2023. Stay tuned.
