Clown in a Cornfield (2025) is pure slasher chaos, honestly. You’ve got this sleepy small town—real middle-of-nowhere vibes, cornfields for days, that sort of thing. All the local teens are bored out of their minds, and the adults are weirdly obsessed with keeping things “just-so.” Then this clown mascot—like, an actual full-on clown—shows up, and everything goes straight to hell. People start dying in the most bonkers ways, and suddenly, no one’s safe, not even the folks who thought they ran the place. The killer clown’s not just some random psycho either; there’s this seething undercurrent of resentment between the old guard and the new kids that keeps bubbling up. Every chase scene, every reveal, it’s got that old-school horror grit, but with a kind of “don’t trust anyone” paranoia that feels super now.
Last Night at Terrace Lanes (2024) is a whole different beast. Imagine a rundown bowling alley, neon flickering, sticky floors, the works. This group of friends decides to hang out there one last time before it closes for good. Just when you think it’s all gutter balls and cheap beer, things turn weird—like, supernatural weird. Shadows that move, freaky noises, and yeah, a few jump scares that’ll actually get you. Cesare plays with nostalgia and dread at the same time, making you wish you could just leave the lights on.
Ghost Game (2024) leans hard into the haunted house genre. A bunch of thrill-seekers sign up for this immersive, supposedly cursed escape room experience. Ghosts, secrets, and some real psychological twists—if you like your scares with a side of “what the hell just happened,” this one’s for you. Cesare’s stories don’t just spook—they stick with you, crawling under your skin when you least expect it.
