Hokum (2026) - Drive Home From The Drive-in Review

Damian McCarthy (Oddity) is back with another terrifying folklore-y fright with Hokum, a film that follows American author and outright asshole Ohm Bauman (Adam Scott) as he travels to a quiet inn in Ireland where his late parents spent their honeymoon in order to spread their ashes. Oh yeah, and the honeymoon suite is haunted by a witch.

And as a special treat, we can watch this entire review in video in the Nightmare on Film Street Fiend Club! Glorious color! All the dimensions! Tune in and let us know how you feel about video content. Love it? Hate it? Want to see our silly faces more often?

Note: Drive Home from the Drive-in reviews are FULL SPOILERS (with a quick 15-or-so minute spoiler free review at the top of the show). Want to know whether to watch or pass without the spoil?

Verdict: GO SEE IT. We're already calling it the scariest movie of the year, and the combination of the soundscapes and the excellent use of pitch black darkness (that definitely has a witch in it), make it a must-see on the big screen. Also, audiences will react to this one, it's got a lot of great jumps!
