From SICKO PSYCHO Films — www.sickopsychofilms.com

SICKO PSYCHO: My Name Is is an independent psychological supernatural horror film written, produced, and directed by Calbert Malone. It is a SICKO PSYCHO Films production.

The Film

Built on uncompromising vision and a clean chain of title, the film is delivered in a pristine master with closed captions. It is positioned for the big screen, with a stated goal of reaching 2,000 theaters.

Crafted for Theatrical

Every frame is built to earn its place on the big screen. The film pairs a psychological horror sensibility with a sound-design-driven approach, crafted for an audience that wants something new and genuinely unsettling from independent cinema.

The Path to the Screen

SICKO PSYCHO Films is pursuing a distribution path that leads with the film’s own strengths, from festival and buyer awareness to a theatrical rollout. The studio is an independent production house pushing for wide theatrical reach.

What SICKO PSYCHO: My Name Is Is About

SICKO PSYCHO: My Name Is follows Luther, a man haunted by a force he cannot name and cannot outrun. The world of the film is shaped by ethereal beings — and chief among them is Sicko Psycho, the dark side incarnate: shadow, obsession, and inner torment. As Luther’s reality warps around him, the film blurs the line between the monster and the man running from it. It is a psychological horror story that treats its central character as the engine, not the decoration.

A Character Built to Be Watched

Sicko Psycho is a horror anti-hero in the tradition of the genre’s most memorable villains — a blend of Leprechaun mischief, Joker chaos, and Venom’s dual nature. He is magnetic, dangerous, and impossible to forget. That character-first design is deliberate: it gives the film something franchise-grade to build on, and it gives an audience a reason to show up in a theater rather than wait for a stream. The film’s hook says it plainly: “Ethereal Beings Are Among Us.”

Practical Craft Over Cheap Scares

The film leans on performance, sound design, and pacing instead of jump-cut gimmickry. The horror is built in the edit and the mix as much as on set — a sound-design-driven approach that rewards a big room with a real speaker system. That is a deliberate bet: the theatrical experience should give the audience something the phone screen cannot.

Fully Owned, Independent IP

SICKO PSYCHO: My Name Is is not licensed, borrowed, or franchise-tied. Both the screenplay and the finished film are registered in the name of writer-director Calbert Malone (copyright PAu004164466 for the script, PAu004251043 for the film). The feature was written, produced, and directed by Malone with a small, actor-centered crew — a lean, fully independent production that keeps the IP clean and the upside with the filmmakers.

Where It Is Heading

The goal is not a quiet streaming debut. SICKO PSYCHO Films is targeting a wide theatrical rollout with a stated aim of 2,000 screens — a deliberately bold bet that an original independent horror film, built around one unforgettable character, can pull audiences into theaters on its own terms.

Why Theatrical, and Why It Matters

Horror has always been a communal genre. The best scares are not the ones you watch alone; they are the ones you hear in a room full of strangers holding their breath at the same time. SICKO PSYCHO: My Name Is is built for that room. Its pacing, its sound mix, and its central performance are all designed to land harder with an audience than they ever could in isolation.

That is why the film’s path leads through theaters rather than straight to a streaming queue. An independent film that earns a real theatrical run does more than collect ticket sales — it creates the kind of event that turns a title into a name people repeat. For an original property with no franchise behind it, that name recognition is the entire game.
