Anchor Bay Entertainment is back, and it’s bringing a fresh wave of quality films to home entertainment. Known for its collector’s editions during the early years of DVD and Blu-ray, the iconic brand is revived by Umbrelic Entertainment with a new mission: to release films that entertain, inspire, and challenge audiences. Kicking off its return on December 10, Anchor Bay will deliver three thrilling releases: Crust, Cursed in Baja, and Abruptio.
Crust – A Fantastical Horror Story
Get ready for Crust, a truly unique monster movie that emerges from the unlikeliest of places: a lint trap. Directed by Sean Whalen, who also stars as Vegas Winters, this horror film tells the story of a former child star who runs a laundromat. When he becomes a victim of bullying, Vegas takes refuge in the pile of socks he finds in his laundromat—only for his pain to give rise to a vengeful monster made of lint.
Featuring a stellar cast, including Daniel Roebuck, Alan Ruck, and Felissa Rose, Crust promises to deliver the thrills with humor and an unsettling twist. Fans of offbeat horror will want to check out the trailer here: Crust Trailer.
Cursed in Baja – A Neo-Noir Thriller
Next up is Cursed in Baja, a neo-noir thriller set in Mexico. Directed and written by Jeff Daniels Phillips, who also stars in the film, Cursed in Baja follows Pirelli, a former LAPD narcotics detective, tasked with retrieving a wealthy family’s grandson from Mexico. As he delves deeper into the dangerous underworld of Baja, Pirelli must confront his own demons while navigating the perils of the region. With a strong lead performance by Phillips, Cursed in Baja offers a gripping tale of crime, redemption, and inner turmoil. Watch the trailer here: Cursed in Baja Trailer.
Abruptio – A Nightmarish Journey

Directed by Evan Marlowe, the film follows Les Hackel, a man who finds himself living a life of misery until he discovers that a bomb has been surgically implanted in his head. With each new assignment, Les is pushed further into a world of extreme crime as he races to find a way out.
The film features an impressive voice cast, including James Marsters, Christopher McDonald, Hana Mae Lee, Jordan Peele, Robert Englund, and Sid Haig in his final role.
