Forget Sharks: 'Hungry' is Bringing Hippos to the Horror Genre! Watch it Now on Digital!

Forget Sharks: ‘Hungry’ is Bringing Hippos to the Horror Genre! Watch it Now on Digital!

Hey there, creature-feature fiends. If you’re tired of the same old sharks, bears, and gators hogging the genre spotlight, it’s time to update your phobia list. A new apex predator is throwing its considerable weight around on Digital right now, and it answers to one name: Hungry. That’s right. Move over, Jaws. Horror is finally giving us what we actually deserve: killer hippos. This Isn’t Your Childhood Board Game Despite the title, Hungry is absolutely not a whimsical, live-action adaptation of the Hasbro game you played as a kid. There are no colorful plastic marbles here—only tragedy, terror, and a whole lot of missing limbs. The plot kicks off in classic horror fashion: a group of thrill-seeking tourists boards a riverboat tour through the Louisiana swamplands. Lured by the promise of an “exclusive adventure”—which, in horror movie speak, translates directly to “congratulations, you are now a buffet”—the group ends up way off the map and very much on the menu.

Prey and Predator: Badlands Director Announces Animated Horror Comedy ‘Freddy the 13th’

Director Dan Trachtenberg has spent the last few years orchestrating high-stakes alien hunts in the Predator franchise (Prey, Predator: Badlands). But for his next trick, he’s swapping gory sci-fi decapitations for family-friendly animated chaos. Trachtenberg is officially headed back into the world of animation to direct a horror-comedy project for Paramount Animation, based on the graphic novel Freddy the 13th by Yehudi Mercado. The best way to pitch the premise? Imagine if Uncle Buck accidentally stumbled into a Friday the 13th movie and left with a body count. The Santa Clause, But Make It Murder According to Deadline, the upcoming animated feature—which is technically untitled at the moment—follows a family vacation that takes a sharp detour into a living nightmare when the fun-loving, highly irresponsible Uncle Freddy accidentally kills the local Boogeyman. As a result, he inadvertently inherits his supernatural powers. Yehudi Mercado’s original graphic novel pads out the hilarious, high-stakes misery: When an unlucky, horror-obsessed schlub accidentally terminates the
