LEVEL 33 ENTERTAINMENT Unveils First Details for “THE CONTAINMENT” (2026)

Jan 21

2026 is already shaping up to be one of those rare years where being a horror fan feels like a full-time event. Just from my perspective alone it is hard not to get genuinely excited about what is on the horizon. Between long-awaited sequels, bold reimaginings, and original concepts that actually feel original, the upcoming slate of terrors looks like a perfect mix of comfort food and risky experimentation. What really stands out is how these new releases seem poised to cater to every corner of the genre, from mainstream studio scares to the kind of offbeat nightmares that usually fly under the radar, making 2026 feel less like just another year for horror and more like a celebration of everything I love about it. I recently got some news about a new horror movie recently releasing a new poster and trailer. Here is the news from their press release:

From the Level 33 Entertainment Press Release:

“The Containment” is the new supernatural horror film directed by Zagha Boys: Jack Zagha Kababie & Yossy Zagha Kababie. It stars Gia Hunter (Paramount Pictures’ “Primate”). It will be released exclusively in theaters in the U.S. and Canada by Level 33 Entertainment on January 21, 2026.

“The Containment” stars Hunter as the young and troubled Caroline Cobbler, who comes in contact with a dark and sinister force. After the tragic death of her father, Caroline becomes possessed by a demon and when her mother involves the church, they find a horror that’s even deadlier than the possession itself.

The cast is rounded out by Jack Gouldbourne (“Fighting with My Family”, Britbox series “Sister Boniface Mysteries”), Charlotte Hunter (“American Psycho”, “Roanoke: The Lost Colony”), and Fernanda Romero (“The Eye”, “Line of Duty”, “The Burning Plain”).

The film is helmed and produced by brothers Jack Zagha Kababie and Yossy Zagha Kababi and co-written with David Desola. Level 33 acquired the film from Black Mandala who is handling worldwide sales.

“The Containment” will be released exclusively in theaters across the U.S. and Canada on January 21, 2026.

With the story and the looming threat from the supernatural, I can tell you that I am highly anticipating this to be quite the fun scare. I will be reviewing this movie soon, so stay tuned for that.
