The creature feature subgenre regularly churns out low-budget shark attacks and giant snake rampages. However, filmmaker James Nunn takes a far more unexpected approach with his breakout survival thriller Hungry. The aquatic horror movie follows a rampaging, highly territorial hippopotamus as it stalks tourists through the murky Louisiana swamplands. After a quiet theater release earlier this year, the independent feature recently hit home digital platforms, and it’s doing better than most. Dominating the Streaming Charts Without a massive studio marketing campaign or household A-list names, the modest creature feature quickly built massive viral momentum. According to global streaming metrics from FlixPatrol, the high-concept survival thriller currently stands as the number one streaming movie on Prime Video and number three overall. The film successfully outperformed major digital titles like Love of Your Life and Masterplan across domestic platform rankings. The movie is also the third-biggest title on the service overall, trailing only high-profile television series releases “Carrie” and “The Terminal List”.
