The Horror Collective has officially acquired the worldwide rights to the Canadian slasher Fresh Meat. Directed and written by Daniel Turres, this high-energy horror flick is set to launch international sales at the Cannes Film Market later this month.

Don’t Forget to Like and Sub-Scream

Fresh Meat follows a group of internet influencers who break into an abandoned prison for viral content. Unfortunately, they accidentally release a ravenous inmate who is tired of his current diet. The group finds themselves trapped in a claustrophobic nightmare, fighting to survive while live-streaming their own demise.

Safety Tip: If a prison is “abandoned,” it’s usually for a reason.
