TERROR FILM RELEASING’S “FEY” (2025) Blurs Truth, Trauma, & Terror

Oct 23

Intro

Terror Films Releasing has been absolutely killing it this year (pun intended). Their slate of releases has proven once again that they are one of horror’s most reliable purveyors of fresh fear, serving up stories that bite harder than most big-budget contenders. Their latest run of found-footage horrors has especially caught my eye (look for the review of “JABBER JAW” coming soon), reminding me why I have such a deep love for what TFR does best: uncovering hidden horror gems and giving them the sinister spotlight they deserve. These are not just indie scares, they are the kind of films that make you triple-check your locks at night. And their newest release? It might just be their most haunting discovery yet.

FROM THE TFR PRESS RELEASE:

Terror Films Releasing has partnered with writer and director Madeline Doherty for the release of her chilling new found-footage horror film, “Fey”.

Starring Madeline Doherty, Zoe Bishop, Michael Raleigh, and Sam Howard, “Fey” follows Maddy, a young woman participating in the final phase of a trauma study. As she films her first nights alone since a mysterious incident, the unsettling sensation of being watched slowly creeps back into her life and this time, the camera captures more than she expects. Doherty, who also produced the film, shared insight into her creative process and vision behind “Fey”:

“I wanted to make a film I’ve been craving to see—something raw, unpolished, and so real it barely feels like a movie. The kind of thing you stumble upon and think, what could possibly happen next?

At its core, this story is about how truth can twist, and how people, especially the ones we least suspect, can sometimes be the most sinister. That’s real horror. There’s no score, no polish, just choppy cuts, silence, crickets, and a girl alone in her childhood home. I shot it in my real childhood home, with my real parents, and even used real home movies. Most of the cast had never acted before. Everything was designed to feel discovered, not performed.

As a lifelong horror fan, I wanted to throw it all on the table for the genre to give audiences something that feels new yet familiar, grounded yet deeply unsettling. Something made for people like me who love horror not just for the scares, but for the stories that linger long after the screen goes dark.”

TERROR FILMS RELEASING will premiere “Fey” across multiple platforms on November 14, 2025, including Chilling, Scare Network TV, Kings of Horror, Watch Movies Now, Shocks & Docs, and TFR’s official AVOD YouTube channel, among others. Stay tuned to here for a full review coming soon.
