NYX UK presents eight chilling channel premieres in July, headed up on Tuesday July 16 at 9pm, with Uwe Boll’s controversial retro-slasher SEED (2007), a divisive portrait of a serial killer which delves into the macabre and grotesque, offering a grim exploration of vengeance and the human capacity for cruelty.

At first you’ll be afraid, you’ll be petrified! On Friday July 5, 9pm, NYX UK also premieres Renaud Gauthier’s ‘goriously’ humorous DISCOPATH (2013), in which a seemingly ordinary man turns his local Seventh Heaven nightclub into a splatter Disco Inferno.

Other primetime channel premieres include the captivating 1972 Italian giallo AMUCK (July 9th, 9pm), REEKER 2, Dave Payne’s 2008 prequel to Reeker (July 11, 9pm), Sonja O'Hara’s 2022 horror thriller MID-CENTURY (July 12, 9pm), BLACK CIRCLE (2018), a stunning Mexican-Swedish horror thriller directed by Adrián García Bogliano. (Thurs July 18, 9pm) and the Venezuelan supernatural thriller, THE HOUSE AT THE END OF TIME (2013), directed by Alejandro Hidalgo, broadcast on Fri July 26, 9pm.

The channel also celebrates the birthdays of two Italian kings of terror. Firstly,   Sergio Martino on Friday July 19, 9pm, with the stylishly graphic giallo TORSO (1973), followed at 11pm by his erotically charged murder mystery YOUR VICE IS  A LOCKED ROOM AND ONLY I HAVE THE KEY (1972).

Then on Wed July 31 at 9pm, Mario Bava is remembered with the channel premiere of his relentless tense and macabre slasher, A BAY OF BLOOD (1971), followed at 11pm with the haunting and surreal THE HOUSE OF EXORCISM (1975), starring Golden Globe winner Elke Sommer, which he co-directed with Alfredo Leone.
