Exciting Collaboration Between Angry Orchard and Jason Universe
Prepare yourself for an exhilarating experience as Angry Orchard Hard Cider joins forces with Jason Universe in an unprecedented collaboration. This partnership comes to life in a chilling new short vignette titled “Sweet Revenge,” directed by the talented Mike P. Nelson. This 13-minute horror feature showcases real fans of the franchise, allowing them to become part of an unforgettable cinematic moment.
A Unique Experience for Loyal Fans
Angry Orchard and Jason Universe embarked on a quest to find their most devoted supporters through social media. They offered these diehard fans the once-in-a-lifetime chance to travel, witness the filming, and even assume the coveted roles of Jason’s unfortunate victims. For the first time, a brand has embraced the concept of “killing” a fan within the realm of horror — a thrilling twist on fan engagement.
According to Matt Withington, the senior director of marketing at Angry Orchard, there’s a perfect pairing of seasonal cravings for hard cider and a good spook in the air: “We wanted to create a moment they’d never forget — or come back from — by letting them become part of horror history. Encountering the most iconic horror slasher of all time is unforgettable.”
Meet the Chosen Fans
The filming stars fans Calleigh Kearns and Gio Contreras, showcasing their passion for both Angry Orchard and horror films. Kearns hails from Barnegat, New Jersey, while Contreras brings his enthusiasm from Agoura Hills, California. Their participation promises a thrilling narrative in the upcoming short film.
A Bold Collaboration with Delicious Offerings
Robbie Barsamian, executive vice president of Horror, Inc., emphasized that this is just the beginning: “This collaboration with Angry Orchard has paved the way for something unexpected, yet fitting within the franchise. It’s bold, it’s bloody, and it’s merely a taste of what’s to come.”
Not only is the vignette a treat for fans, but Angry Orchard is also introducing a thrilling new 12-can Thriller Variety Pack. This collection features unique glow-in-the-dark packaging, showcasing four tantalizing cider flavors. A standout offering is the Jason-inspired Blood Orange cider, designed to celebrate the collaboration.

The Angry Orchard Thriller Variety Pack includes three brand-new cider innovations alongside a returning fan favorite:
- Blood Orange: This cider skillfully marries vibrant juicy apple notes with the zesty sweetness of blood-orange, resulting in a striking blood-red hue.
- Berry Bewitched: A delightful blend of tart berries sweetened by fresh apple creates a balanced flavor profile, concluding with a refreshed twist.
- Headless Pumpkin: A nostalgic mix of crisp apples and pumpkin pie interlaced with hints of vanilla ice cream and flaky pie crust, rivaling classic fall treats.
- Cinnful Apple: A returning fan-favorite that combines sweet, slightly tart apple notes with a cinnamon spice, perfect for the autumn season.
