Lionsgate has released the official trailer for Cheer Bloody Murder, a slasher set at a cheerleading camp. It arrives on digital and on demand on December 15, 2026.
The story
Something horrifying is lurking in the halls of the world's most prestigious cheerleading camp. A masked killer starts stalking the young campers and their coaches, and as the bodies pile up, a sinister pattern of revenge emerges, until the identity of the knife-wielding slasher is finally revealed. The project was announced under an earlier title, Scream Bloody Murder.
Who's in it
Scout Taylor-Compton, known to horror fans from Rob Zombie's Halloween films, leads the cast. She's joined by Robert LaSardo, Lauren Francesca, Caleb Thomas, Kelly Lynn Reiter, Sean Whalen, Vernon Wells, Shawn C. Phillips and Julie Anne Prescott. The late Tom Sizemore also appears, along with James Duval and Todd Bridges.
Behind the camera
Shawn C. Phillips, who also has a role on screen, directs. It's his feature directing debut. The screenplay is by Will Collazo Jr. and Julie Anne Prescott, who also acts in the film. It runs 1 hour 33 minutes.
Phillips is a familiar face from low-budget horror, and the film leans into the classic camp-slasher setup: an isolated location, a masked killer and a mystery that holds until the end.
