On Thursday, TIFF, which runs Sept. 10-20, 2026, announced its Midnight Madness lineup of genre films, including filmmaker Anna Biller’s highly anticipated follow-up to 2016’s “The Love Witch,” titled “The Face of Horror,” about a 14th century cheating widower (Jonah Hauer-King) who’s haunted by his late wife (Kristine Froseth); “Vintage Violence,” a zany action-comedy starring Cole Sprouse as a jeans producer in Japan who gets mixed up with the yakuza; opening night film “River,” a slasher from first-time director Joshua Giuliano starring Jane Levy and Jessica Rothe as siblings stalked by a faceless killer; and closing night film “Rogue Trooper,” the latest sci-fi movie from “Moon” director Duncan Jones, and based on the comic of the same name, about a genetic super soldier (Aneurin Barnard) seeking revenge against those that killed everyone else in his outfit.
