Shudder aims to get 2024 off to a prog-rockin’ new start with splatter-comedy Destroy All Neighbors, starring Alex Winter and Jonah Ray Rodrigues. Brand new character posters introduces the cast that’s sure to become bombarded with gory mayhem and zany rock hijinks.
Look for Destroy All Neighbors next month, when it releases on Shudder on January 12, 2024.
In the film, “William Brown (Jonah Ray Rodrigues), a neurotic, self-absorbed musician determined to finish his prog-rock magnum opus, faces a creative roadblock in the form of a noisy and grotesque neighbor named Vlad (Alex Winter). Finally working up the nerve to demand that Vlad keep it down, William inadvertently decapitates him. But, while attempting to cover up one murder, William’s accidental reign of terror causes victims to pile up and become undead corpses who torment and create more bloody detours on his road to prog-rock Valhalla.”
Contracted: Phase II‘s Josh Forbes directed Destroy All Neighbors from a screenplay by Charles Pieper and Jared Logan, with story by Pieper and Mike Benner.
Kiran Deol stars alongside Winter and Rodrigues.
The horror movie is described as “a twisted splatter-comedy about a deranged journey of self-discovery full of goopy practical FX, a well-known ensemble cast, and LOTS of blood.” Emphasis on deranged.

“We’re thrilled to be working with Shudder and RLJE on this labor of love,” Winter told Deadline previously. “Our film is a return to the kind of physical effects-driven genre comedy that’s all too rare these days.”
Winter, who plays the unrecognizable Vlad, is no stranger to horror or donning heavy prosthetics in the name of horror-comedy fun. Most movie fans remember Winter for his excellent role in the Bill & Ted trilogy, but horror fans celebrate the for his role in The Lost Boys and as the director of the cult classic Freaked. Winter starred in Freaked as Ricky Coogin, the lead who undergoes a monstrous transformation. Rodrigues has also quickly become a horror stalwart, having recently appeared in Suitable Flesh, Satanic Hispanics, and last year’s Christmas Bloody Christmas.
But based on these character posters, it could be “Eleanor” that steals the show.
