50 Cent isn’t just making hits in the studio anymore, or he’s making moves in the horror game, and his new flick Skill House is low-key already shaking people up… like, literally. Word is, the movie got so intense during filming that a cameraman straight-up fainted. You heard that right. This ain’t your average scary movie; this one’s got people passing out behind the scenes. That part.
Teaming up with Josh Stolberg (the genius behind the Saw franchise), 50’s going all-in with a brutal take on influencer culture that’s bound to have folks talking. The setup? Ten social media stars get lured into a twisted content house where survival means taking on some monstrous, deadly challenges. Imagine influencer culture meets old-school slasher vibes. Yup, it’s a whole vibe.
Actor Jacob Skidmore, who’s starring in the film alongside internet favorites Bryce Hall and Hannah Stocking, gave us a little sneak peek. “It’s wild. Think modern-day influencer drama mixed with that classic ‘80s slasher energy,” he said. “And working with Josh was insane. The man brought that Saw energy straight to the set. It’s gory, it’s bloody, and trust me, y’all ain’t ready.”
But here’s where it gets even better. Skidmore had nothing but love for 50 Cent, who’s not only producing the movie but also hyping up the cast every step of the way. Skidmore shared this gem of a moment from the set: “I was laid out on some pavement after this intense survival scene, just dead tired, and next thing I know, I’m getting lifted up off the ground by 50 himself. All he said was, ‘You did real good.’ Man, it was surreal working with him.”
Between Stolberg’s expertise in twisted horror and 50’s vision and influence, Skill House is gearing up to be something special. It’s not just about the gore (although there’s a lot of it); it’s also a sharp commentary on the dark side of internet fame. Who’s ready for a movie that hits where it hurts? Fans of hip-hop, horror, and all things raw and unfiltered, this one’s definitely for y’all. Keep your eyes peeled because Skill House might just be the wildest ride of the year.
