The ARROW October 2025 lineup includes the Asian horror anthology series, Three and Three…Extremes, featuring work from acclaimed directors from Korea, Japan, Hong Kong and Thailand includng Peter Chan, Nonzee Nimibutr, Kim Jee-woon, Park Chan-wook, and Takashi Miike. Additionally, Ms. 45 arrives in a brand-new restoration that gives an extraordinary glimpse into the grimy glamour of New York in the 80s and with all its controversial power intact.

In 1972, director Massimo Dallamano (Colt 38 Special Squad, The Night Child) broke new ground in the giallo genre with the harrowing What Have You Done to Solange? Two years later, he followed up with an even darker semi-sequel – the chilling What Have They Done to Your Daughters?

A teenage girl is found hanging from the rafters of a privately rented attic, pregnant and violated. Hot-headed Inspector Silvestri (Claudio Cassinelli, The Suspicious Death of a Minor) and rookie Assistant District Attorney Vittoria Stori (Giovanna Ralli, Cold Eyes of Fear) are assigned to the case, the scope of which grows substantially when they discover that the dead girl was part of a ring of underage prostitutes whose abusers occupy the highest echelons of Italian society. Meanwhile, a cleaver-wielding, motorcycle-riding killer roars through the streets of Brescia, determined to ensure that those involved take their secret to the grave.

On October 3, ARROW brings out four films from the past decade to give subscribers a taste of underseen modern horror.

Family Dinner (UK/US/CA/IRE): An overweight teenager spends the holidays at her aunt’s farm in the hope of getting help to lose weight, but soon after her arrival, she begins to suspect that something is very wrong at this place.

A Most Atrocious Thing (UK/US/ CA/IRE): Oh deer! Ben, Dylan and their three stoner buds embark on a graduation trip at a remote cabin with plans to drink, hunt and drink some more. But, after inadvertently eating tainted deer meat, friends become foes and transform into demonic flesh craving zombies who want nothing more than to tear the group limb from limb.

Creep Van (US): A 20-something slacker gets caught up in a deadly game of cat and mouse after answering a ‘For Sale’ sign placed on a dilapidated van.

Housebound (US): A young woman is forced to return to her childhood home after being placed under house arrest, where she suspects that something evil may be lurking.

Rue Morgue Selects (UK/US/CA/IRE):

Launched in 1997 by Rodrigo Gudiño, RUE MORGUE is the world’s leading horror in culture and entertainment brand, spearheaded by its multiple award-winning periodical, Rue Morgue Magazine and Rue Morgue Digital; Rue Morgue TV specialty horror channel; the Rue Morgue Library book series; Rue Morgue Presents Frightmare in the Falls horror expo and Rue Morgue Presents CineMacabre Movie Nights monthly film series. Rue Morgue Magazine is issued bimonthly and distributed worldwide.

“Damn, I love making a horror movie playlist. It’s like making a mixtape for your crush in high school – the ultimate gesture in the endeavour to be heard and understood on an experiential level. As Executive Editor of Rue Morgue magazine and one half of the Faculty of Horror podcast, I have the pleasure and the privilege of talking horror all day long alongside some of the best and brightest in genre criticism, but making a list still feels especially intimate somehow. For someone to take me up on a horror movie suggestion is deeply gratifying. For them to enjoy it? Sublime! And so, it’s with a weird mixt of vulnerability and pride that I share these selects, and I’m so grateful to ARROW Selects for not only giving me the opportunity to do so, but for having such an expansive catalog to pick and choose from.

Selecting the fright flicks was easy – describing them here is proving to be a bit trickier. The best I can do to articulate my taste in horror is to say I like movies that make me feel changed, rattled, shaken and not stirred. It could be that unexpected flash of absurdity amid the rough realism of Calvaire, the sight of uniformed Japanese teens being riddled with machine gun bullets in Battle Royale, or the various “oh shit” moments in Hounds of Love when you realize that oh yeah, we’re going there, and there’s nothing you can do about it.”

Titles include: Spider Baby, Audition, Calvaire.

On October 10, monsters and murder are the name of the day with a terrifying trio of releases.

She Freak (UK/US/CA/IRE): A waitress leaves the greasy-diner business for the excitement of the carnival, where she quickly discovers that she despises freaks and human oddities in this newly restored 60s exploitation classic.

Resolution (US): A man imprisons his estranged junkie friend in an isolated cabin in the boonies of San Diego to force him through a week of sobriety, but the events of that week are being mysteriously manipulated.

Boardinghouse (UK/US/CA/IRE): In this 80s shot-on-video favorite, a boarding house is reopened years after gruesome murders were committed there. Suddenly, the body count begins once more!

Halloween is usually a time for creepy killers in scary masks hacking up teenagers for no discernible reason. Why not spend this Halloween with stylish black-gloved killers who leave a trail of dead bodies in order to cover up crimes of passion?

This Halloween, forget the monsters and the slashers and enjoy some of the best Giallo films ever made in new restorations that make these important and influential films just as terrifying as they were back in their heyday. Just don’t turn the lights off, because you never know know who’s lurking around the corner…

Titles include: Tenebrae, The Bird With The Crystal Plumage, Deep Red, What Have They Done To Your Daughters?, The Killer Reserved Nine Seats.

Tenebrae and The Bird With The Crystal Plumage are available to North American subscribers for the first time!

The European nightmares continue with The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh (UK/US/ CA/IRE).

An ambassador’s unfaithful wife discovers that one of the men in her life — either her husband, an ex-lover or her current lover — may be a vicious serial killer who targets women with razor blades in Vienna.

On Halloween night 1998, a Northern Ireland TV veteran teams up with a popular new children’s presenter to investigate poltergeist activity in a reputedly haunted house in Belfast. Light entertainment turns to horror when an unseen terror reveals itself.

The first film would shock audiences with its approach to Asian horror, and lead to the sequel, Three… Extremes, directed by Hong Kong’s Fruit Chan (Made in Hong Kong), South Korea’s Park Chan-wook (Oldboy), and Japan’s Takashi Miike (Audition).

Fuelled by her trauma, Thana sees that sexual threat is everywhere in the city and decides to bring a .45 calibre solution to the problem.

ARROW’s last offerings before Halloween arrive October 27 with a trip back to the 80s, one of the greatest periods in horror.

Slugs (US/ CA): The townsfolk of a rural community are dying in strange and gruesome circumstances. Following the trail of horrifically mutilated cadavers, resident health inspector Mike Brady is on the case to piece together the mystery. He soon comes to a terrifying conclusion – giant slugs are breeding in the sewers beneath the town, and they’re making a meal of the locals!

Apprentice to Murder (US/ CA): In early twentieth-century Pennsylvania Dutch Country, young Billy Kelly (Chad Lowe, Highway to Hell) falls in with a charismatic “powwower” or folk magic healer, Dr John Reese (Donald Sutherland, Don’t Look Now), shunned by the rest of the community for his non-conformist beliefs. Together, they investigate the mysterious sickness that is blighting the area, which Reese believes to be the work of a sinister local hermit. But as the plague spreads and the wide-eyed Billy falls ever deeper under Reese’s spell, are they doing God’s work or the Devil’s bidding?

Dead-End Drive-In (US/ CA): One of Quentin Tarantino’s favorite directors, Brian Trenchard-Smith was a key figure in the Ozploitation movement, responsible for The Man from Hong Kong, Stunt Rock, Turkey Shoot, BMX Bandits… and dystopian cult classic Dead-End Drive In!

Set in a near-future where the economy has crumbled and violent gangs play havoc in the streets, the powers-that-be have decided to lure the delinquent youth into drive-in cinemas and keep them there. No longer just a place to watch trashy movies and make out, these outdoor picture shows have become concentration camps for the unruly and unwanted.

With its day-glo color scheme, new wave soundtrack and extraordinary stunt work, Dead-End Drive-In is in the tradition of Ozploitation milestones Mad Max and The Cars That Ate Paris only very, very eighties.

Flowers in the Attic (US/ CA): Home sweet home is murder… When her husband dies in a tragic accident, widow Corrine Dollanganger (Victoria Tennant, The Holcroft Covenant) takes her four children to the ancestral family home she fled before they were born. Locked away in the attic by their tyrannical grandmother (Academy Award winner Louise Fletcher, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest), it falls to older brother and sister Chris (Jeb Stuart Adams, The Goonies) and Cathy (Kristy Swanson, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) to care for their younger siblings. But with their mother growing increasingly distant and erratic and a mysterious sickness taking hold, will any of the Dollanganger children survive to escape the clutches of the house’s cruel matriarch?

Return of the Killer Tomatoes (US/ CA): Ten years on from the Great Tomato War, mankind lives in fear of another uprising by the waxy red menace. Meanwhile, Professor Gangreen – played with gusto by the great John Astin from TV’s The Addams Family – sets out to pursue his own evil ends by creating a burgeoning army of tomato militia men.
