Honey Bunch is a 2026 Canadian-American psychological horror film directed by Madeleine Sims-Fewer and Dusty Mancinelli, starring Grace Glowicki and Jason Isaacs. Set against a remote wilderness backdrop, it blurs the line between trauma therapy and something far darker, unsettling the domestic bond from within.
What is Honey Bunch about?
Diana finds herself being driven deep into a forested wilderness by her husband, who tells her they are heading to a specialized facility that treats psychological trauma. The problem is she cannot recall the circumstances that led them here. As the isolation of the woods tightens around her, fragments of memory begin to surface — not comforting ones, but pieces of a picture she has been unconsciously burying. The facility itself proves strange and the people inside stranger still. What Diana slowly uncovers is not a path toward healing but a set of truths about her marriage and her own past that she may not have been meant to remember.
Cast & crew
Grace Glowicki carries the film as Diana, her performance balancing fragility and quiet resolve across a physically and emotionally demanding role. Jason Isaacs brings commanding ambiguity to his part, neither fully reassuring nor outright menacing. Ben Petrie, Kate Dickie, and Julian Richings round out a strong ensemble that includes Jesse LaVercombe, Sarah Kolasky, and India Brown in supporting roles that each add texture to the facility's unsettling atmosphere.
Context & significance
For Iranian diaspora viewers who grew up on atmospheric psychological thrillers — from classic Persian gothic to international festival horror — Honey Bunch slots neatly into the tradition of films where memory itself becomes the antagonist. The wilderness-isolation premise echoes a strand of Canadian and Scandinavian horror that values dread over spectacle, a sensibility that often resonates with diaspora audiences who appreciate slow-burn tension over jump scares. The film is fully available with a Persian dub, meaning you can follow every nuance of dialogue in your native language without losing the film's carefully constructed mood. It is a co-production between Canada, the United States, and Finland, bringing together creative voices across three distinct filmmaking cultures.
