“She is hiding secret impulses that she is going to have to try to control – if she wants to keep her job…” Bleecker Street revealed a making of featurette promo for Victorian Psycho, an extra fun & extra wicked Victorian era horror comedy thriller from filmmaker Zachary Wigon. Ready to slice its way into theaters in November coming up in a few weeks. Good film! It first premiered at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival and received solid reviews (read mine here). An entertaining spin on American Psycho (which is brought up in here) but set in Victorian times. In 1858 an eccentric juvenile governess, Winifred Notty, arrives at the remote gothic manor Ensor House. As Winifred assimilates and begins to start her work, staff begin to inexplicably disappear, and the owners wonder if something is amiss with this fresh arrival… These strange happenings stir suspicion that Ms. Notty not what she seems. Starring Maika Monroe as Winifred Notty, along with a fantastic full cast: Jason Isaacs, Thomasin McKenzie, Ruth Wilson, Evie Templeton, Jacobi Jupe, Amy De Bhrún, Paul Reid, and Katherine Moran. This is a follow-up to the main official trailer during the summer. And a good reminder that it’s coming out soon and horror fans need to watch when it’s playing.

In the Year of our Lord 1858, an unusual governess named Winifred Notty (Maika Monroe) arrives at the gothic manor known as Ensor House. Winifred’s responsibilities include teaching the children manners and educating them about their family history – all whilst hiding her own psychopathic tendencies. As staff members start disappearing, the owners of the estate begin to wonder if there may be something amiss with their fresh governess… Victorian Psycho invites us into the mind of a psychopath – trapped in a world she cannot control, living on the border between insurrection and total madness. Victorian Psycho is directed by American indie genre filmmaker Zachary Wigon, director of the films The Heart Machine and Sanctuary previously and a few other shorts. The screenplay is written by Virginia Feito. Produced by Dan Kagan, Sébastien Raybaud, Nick Shumaker, Elizabeth Siegal, & Zachary Wigon. The first premiered at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival in Un Certain Regard (read our review).
