Death Cycle is a 2025 horror film inspired by Italian giallo thrillers while evoking Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof. After the death of her sister, a woman is visited by a man looking to solve a series of murders by a motorcycle maniac. As their shared fear grows, the killer’s rampage continues, leaving them both questioning who the real monster is.
Directed by Gabriel Carrer (For the Sake of Vicious) from a screenplay by Dave McLeod. The Chronovisor Images-High Rise Studio-Latefox Pictures co-production stars Kristen Kaster (Death Valley), Sasha Ormond, Matthew Ninaber (Psycho Goreman), Justin Bott, Matt Daciw (Death Valley), James Fler (For the Sake of Vicious) and Wes Hill.

Director Gabriel Carrer comments, “With our festival run about to commence, the Death Cycle team is ecstatic to have our world premiere at the legendary FrightFest UK. It’s been a dream of ours from the moment Dave McLeod wrote the script. Given the film’s deep giallo roots, and my personal connection to Italian cinema through my family, it felt only right to debut the film in Europe.”
“Gabriel Carrer has crafted a sharp, uncompromising thriller with Death Cycle, a film that masterfully blends giallo style with modern slasher brutality,” adds Uncork’d Entertainment President Keith Leopard.
