Chilling Films and Fathom Entertainment, the leading specialty distributor of content to theatrical partners worldwide, announced that “Gale: Yellow Brick Road,” a haunting reimagining of the Oz mythos that twists childhood nostalgia into pure cinematic terror, will have a one-night-only theatrical engagement on February 11, 2026.

Exclusive to theatres, “Gale: Yellow Brick Road,” will also offer a nearly 5-minute bonus behind-the-scenes featurette segment that delves into the making of “Gale: Yellow Brick Road” from director Daniel Alexander exploring the reimagined World of Oz, its haunting atmosphere, and a mix of iconic and long-forgotten characters pulled from L. Frank Baum’s original novels, some of whom have never appeared in live-action before.

The featurette also includes rare footage of the cast transforming into their roles, from detailed makeup sessions to the intricate costume process, offering a deeper look at the artistry and mythology behind the film.

Also revealed today was the vibrant and mysterious poster art from renowned horror film movie poster designer Creepy Duck Design.

“125 years ago, L. Frank Baum introduced the world to Dorothy Gale and the mysterious land of Oz, changing storytelling forever. With deep respect for the original source material, Chilling Films is proud to present a darker, new vision of that world with ‘Gale: Yellow Brick Road,’” said Dane Petrali, Founder of Chilling Films and Executive Producer of “Gale: Yellow Brick Road.” “In this film we twist familiar faces, reimagine nostalgic elements, and introduce new characters that we believe audiences will grow to love. ‘Gale: Yellow Brick Road’ is dark, thrilling, and heartfelt. Chilling is excited to share the first chapter of this story with the world.”

“Horror and fantasy remain amongst the most popular genre of Fathom theatrical engagements and moviegoers nationwide, and ‘Gale: Yellow Brick Road’ caters to both sets of fans in a big way,” said Ray Nutt, Chief Executive Officer for Fathom Entertainment. “Dark, disturbing and eerily compelling, ‘Gale: Yellow Brick Road’ is a unique and compelling moviegoing experience fans will want to catch in theatres on February 11.”

About “Gale: Yellow Brick Road”

“Gale: Yellow Brick Road” follows Emily Gale, Dorothy’s granddaughter, a quiet young woman tormented by visions, disjointed dreams, and an unshakable sense that reality itself is unraveling. As these disturbances mount, she is drawn toward a shadow world-a dark and magical realm that should not exist. Through chilling encounters and surreal revelations, Emily stumbles into the long-buried legacy of Oz-now a place of ruin, tragedy, and unspeakable horrors. Dark, atmospheric, and emotionally charged, “Gale: Yellow Brick Road” fuses psychological horror with mythic fantasy, charting a slow, harrowing descent into madness, memory, and the shattered remnants of a road once paved in yellow bricks.

Tickets for “Gale: Yellow Brick Road” will be available on January 8 at Fathom Entertainment and participating theatre box offices (theatre locations are subject to change). Fans can sign up now to be among the first notified when tickets go on sale.
