Damn in Old-school Horror Tropen, Grammy-winning musician, rapper, producer and filmmaker Flying Lotus’ (V/H/S/99) New-to-streaming Phantasmagoria, AshIs ready and pumped to offer all cosmic nightmare fuel with high-octane that you will ever want to refuel.
With his First-Personal Shooter-Videogame Family Tree and obvious Hommages on films such as John Carpenter’s The thing and Paul Ws Anderson’s Event Horizonwith a sprinkling of the large old HP Lovecraft that threw in, Ash I received a theatrical release on March 21, 2025 by XYZ films and now it has come to the Horror-Central Shudder Horror-Central Platform from Friday 20 June.
Believe me when I say that you have never seen such disturbing, imaginative images as this and it is a revelation of must-watch for every card-bearing horror dog or diehard sci-fi enthusiast. Maybe you even want to keep all the house lights and cross with courageous souls than yours.
The storyline used is relatively simple and it is a worn plot device in Survival Horror Gaming and SCI-Fi Territory where an astronaut awakens on board a spaceship with little or no reminder of what tragedy has taken place and a mysterious deadly antagonist lurks on the dark.
Aaron Paul (Breaking Bath” Need for speed) and Eiza González (Baby driver) Star in this extraordinary frightening project helped by Flying Lotus from a smart scenario written by the indigenous Swiss actor Jonni Remmler. Ash In this way, RAW’s self-assured attitude and flair from the 90s from the 90s Grindhouse Fiction Fiction Horror films such as Indie director Richard Stanley’s Hardware or Vincenzo Natali’s horrifying Cube. Match that with DNA from video games from franchises such as Doom” Dead spaceAnd Quiet hill And you have an idea of what’s in the store.

Here is the official synopsis: “On the mysterious planet of Ash, Riya (González) wakes up to find her crew that is slaughtered. When a man named Brion (Paul) arrives to save her, a test of psychological and physical terror must decide while Riya and Brion can trust each other to trust each other.”
The cast also includes IKO UWAIS, Kate Elliott, Beulah Koale, and Flying Lotus, who wrote the incredibly addictive original Synthwave score that acts as a perfect addition to the visionary Irrits. This atmospheric music was written on off-grid fashion, while Flylo was in New Zealand with only a MIDI controller and his personal laptop computer and the results are amazing.
Intense pools of saturated colors, monstrous extraterrestrial entities, and jumping show that you can leave out of breath, this is really something to enjoy and we are very happy to introduce this great work by Flying Lotus, one of our best and brightest hyfenate talents on the planet.
There is also a stunning unintended tribute to the Palmer Monster Scene in Carpenter’s The thing That rates the blood and the gore to ridiculous dimensions that you don’t want to miss.
Now streaming for shudder, Ash Is produced by XYZ films ‘Nate Bolotin and GFC films’ Mathew Metcalf and Executive produced by Nick Spicer, Maxime Cotttray, Aram Tertzakian, Mile Daughtery, Flying Lotus, Neill Blomkamp, Dave Brown and Adam Riback.
