First Images Surface From The Dark Film ‘Squeal’

From director Aik Karapetian comes the dark horror-comedy Squeal, written by the director and Aleksandr Rodionov. Today, we’ve got the first look at the film. The dark fairy tale centers on Samuel (Kevin Janssens), who is far from home, searching for his father. Lost in remotest Eastern Europe, on the edges of a mythical forest, a minor road accident leads to a chance meeting with a pig-farmer’s daughter Kirke (Laura Siliņa). Sam soon learns that his priorities must change if he wants to survive. Her initial hospitality is a smoke screen to capture him and make him a forced laborer on the farm. Alone, unable to speak the language, and chained up 24/7 with the pigs, he learns to adapt. Fortunately, a seemingly magical piglet gains Sam’s confidence and shows him the way to freedom and true love. The film, which was an official selection at Fantastic Fest (2022), stars Kevin Janssens, Laura Siliņa, Aigars Vilims, Normunds Griestiņš, Juris Bartkevičs,

New Paranormal Series Will Investigate “Ghosts Of Devil’s Perch”

An elite team of paranormal investigators race to help a western town in the new series “Ghosts of Devil’s Perch,” premiering this August on Travel Channel and Discovery+. “A mystery is buried beneath the streets of Butte, Montana, and the spirits tethered to the historic mining town’s past are rising to the surface with clues. The discovery of copper in the 1880s turned Butte’s Copper Barons into some of the wealthiest men in America.

The Best Werewolf Movie Of The Year, ‘The Cursed,” Is Now On Hulu

We here at HorrorFuel don’t use the phrase “one of the best horror films of the year,” lightly, but that’s exactly what we called The Cursed in our review. Now, this brilliant, dark, and brutal werewolf film is available on Hulu. The gothic film, originally titled Eight for Silver, is set ”In the late 1800s, a once-peaceful remote country village is under attack—but by who or what, no one knows.
