Forbidden Fruits (2026)

Four women running a witchy cult out of a mall basement discover that sisterhood is powerful — until a new hire threatens to blow it all up.

Crowd Score: 7/10

Who Is It For?

If you loved Jennifer's Body, Bottoms, or the dark sisterhood vibes of The Craft, this is your next obsession. Fans of the cast — especially Riverdale's Lili Reinhart and You's Victoria Pedretti — will get to see them play wildly against type in a witchy cult comedy. It's designed for the crowd that turns horror-comedies into midnight movie cult classics.
