Jump Scare VOD Release Set for December 22

The Jump Scare VOD release is set for December 22, sending Donnie Hobbie’s metal-band nightmare from its festival run to digital platforms just in time for a much louder Christmas break.

Jump Scare VOD release brings the band’s rural nightmare home

Jump Scare follows an all-female metal band retreating to a decaying farmhouse to write the album that might finally save its career. Flat tires, unresolved grudges and some extremely questionable local cuisine soon turn the session into a cannibal-filled disaster.

Hobbie wrote and directed the 85-minute horror comedy, which stars Shannon Dang, Erin Ruth Walker, Madison Abbott, Natasha Estrada and Eric Roberts. Antenna Releasing describes the film as a mix of grindhouse slasher energy, body horror and punk-rock chaos.

Antenna Releasing plans screenings before the digital launch

The distributor’s official film page lists November and December theatrical screenings ahead of the VOD date. The movie also arrives with festival awards already behind it, giving the wider release a chance to reach viewers who did not catch it on the genre circuit.

The cannibal setup also connects naturally with TFR’s ongoing coverage of the subgenre, including the production launch for The Cannibal. Jump Scare takes a far less restrained route, mixing band drama with VHS confessions, creepy neighbors and a farmhouse that should probably never have appeared in the tour itinerary.
