Acrophobia (2026)

The 2026 thriller Acrophobia (also known as Fall 2: Deadpoint) is a high-concept survival horror film directed by Michael Spierig and Peter Spierig, returning to the intense vertical terror established in their 2022 hit. Produced by Lionsgate and starring Harriet Slater, Asa Germann, Tom Brittney, Virginia Gardner, and Grace Caroline Currey, the film follows two friends who venture into a closed-off mountain range in Thailand to honor the memory of a deceased relative. Their journey takes a deadly turn when a sudden earthquake traps them on a crumbling, 11,000-foot-high maintenance walkway with no signal and dwindling supplies.

• The film was shot primarily on location in Thailand, utilizing practical effects to enhance the visceral sense of height and danger, aiming to replicate the claustrophobic tension of its predecessor.
• Harriet Slater and Virginia Gardner reprise the dynamic of professional rescuer and amateur enthusiast, adding new layers of psychological trauma to their characters' interactions.
• The screenplay credits include Jonathan Frank and Scott Mann, who work closely with the Spierig brothers to craft a narrative focused on isolation and physical endurance rather than supernatural elements.
