Horror fans, prepare for liftoff. The 2025 FANGORIA Chainsaw Awards are launching into orbit with an homage to space-horror, premiering Sunday, October 19 at 9:00 p.m. ET on Shudder. Heart eyes for Josh Ruben, screams for Barbara Crampton—together the duo will co-host horror’s biggest night, guiding fans through the genre’s finest achievements across film, television, and gaming.
Crampton and Ruben won’t be alone. Debbie Rochon will narrate the show from liftoff to last scream, and the presenter lineup is stacked: Ryan Coogler (Sinners), Ernest Dickerson (Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight), and David Howard Thornton (Terrifier) will take the stage, while shock rock legends GWAR unleash their signature spectacle to present Best Kill. They’ll be joined by Shannon Purser, Felissa Rose, Tiffany Shepis, Bill Moseley, Jeffrey Reddick, Peaches Christ, Reece Feldman, and many more.
This year’s nominee list is a murderer’s row of Hollywood heavyweights and genre trailblazers. Nicolas Cage (Longlegs), Michael B. Jordan (Sinners), Demi Moore (The Substance), and Lily-Rose Depp (Nosferatu) headline a star-packed slate, joined by Bill Skarsgård, Ralph Fiennes, and Hugh Grant in supporting turns that prove horror’s reach across the industry.
Indie darlings like Hunter Schafer (Cuckoo) and Willa Fitzgerald (Strange Darling) delivered breakout performances alongside the legends, while behind the camera, directors like Danny Boyle (28 Years Later), Ryan Coogler (Sinners), Robert Eggers (Nosferatu), and Coralie Fargeat (The Substance) battled for Best Director.
Nominees were selected by a nominating body of more than 150 industry tastemakers, creators, and professionals, representing the most impactful releases between July 2024 and June 2025, with nearly one million fans casting their votes online to decide the winners.
Tune in on Sunday, October 19 at 9:00 p.m. ET on Shudder to see which nominees fans sent on a victory mission. And follow FANGORIA across socials for behind-the-scenes transmissions from your favorite stars, stories from set, and more.
