About 13 Khutz

The unsettling lives inside the familiar.

Founded in 2025, 13 Khutz is a filmmaker-first production company dedicated to independent horror and genre films made for under $5 million.

What guides the work.

We make excellently crafted horror and genre films that excavate the themes defining our moment: love, community, social fracture, environmental exploitation, and the machinery of late capitalism.

01

Filmmakers first.

Distinctive voices shape the work. We pair ambitious craft with disciplined budgets under $5 million and use production incentives to put more value on screen.

02

Something fresh.

Audiences deserve original films that feel future-facing and worth leaving home for. Horror gives bold ideas, difficult themes, and unforgettable entertainment a shared language.

03

Theatrical matters.

A theatrical rollout builds conversation, drives word of mouth, and carries into digital. Smart advertising, filmmaker Q&As, and special events put the audience at the center.
