Trailer For Horror-Comedy ‘Cannibal Comedian’ Will Leave You In Stitches

A new indie horror-comedy is heading your way soon, Cannibal Comedian, whose trailer and poster have just arrived, teasing a film that will leave you in stitches. The film from writer-director Sean Haitz (Big Top Evil, Mangrove Slasher 2, AREA 5150) follows a psychopathic cannibal (Aaron Prager) fed up with his lack of ambition who decides to try his hand at standup comedy in an attempt to satisfy his appetite for normalcy. Set in the modern-day American west, the film pairs dark, over-the-top humor and rampaging horror at full throttle. Littered with scary, grotesque, and wildly energetic characters. Cannibal Comedian is a love letter to standup comedy and horror films such as Tobe Hooper’s 1974 cannibal classic The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, of which two of the original cast members lend their talents here with involvement from original cast members Edwin Neal, most known for his unforgettable role as “The Hitchhiker” (A.K.A. Nubbins Sawyer) and Allen Danziger (A.K.A. Jerry). Joining Prager
