Gravitas Ventures has acquired the upcoming killer sloth horror movie Slotherhouse, Variety reports today, with the film headed to the big screen courtesy of Iconic Events.
Slotherhouse will slash its way into theaters nationwide on August 30, 2023.
Directed by Matthew Goodhue, Slotherhouse is a horror-comedy that tells the story of college senior Emily Young, who aims to be voted president of her sorority.
“When she adopts an adorable sloth, she realizes the animal can serve as the house’s new mascot and help her win votes, dubbing the animal Alpha. The new pet is a beloved addition to the sorority house until a series of deaths point toward the sloth as the prime murder suspect. The film becomes a survival story of sisters versus sloth as the girls wonder if they can make it out of Sigma Lambda Theta alive (sloths, of course, are not known for being fleet of foot).”
Lisa Ambalavanar, Sydney Craven, Olivia Rouyre, Bianca Beckles-Rose, Andrew Horton, Sutter Nolan, Grace Patterson, Milica Vrzić, Annamaria Serda, Rudi Rok, Tiff Stevenson and Stefan Kapičić also star.
Bradley Fowler wrote the screenplay. Story by Fowler and Cady Lanigan.
“’Slotherhouse’ is a movie that embodies the reckless abandon genre films can bring to the table. It scratches the sloth itch we didn’t know we had! Our team is thrilled to work on a project that really goes for it, claws and all,” said Nick Royak of Iconic Events Releasing.
“‘Slotherhouse’ was inspired by iconic cinema with a dedication to practical effects. It’s an homage to our favorite creature features and slashers with a FURocious horror icon for the modern world. ‘Slotherhouse’ is simply bonkers” said Lanigan.
