Two of this year’s best new horror movies, Hulu has announced that Prano Bailey-Bond’s Censor and Jaco Bouwer’s Gaia will be part of this year’s “Huluween” celebration.
Now in its fourth year, “Huluween” is Hulu’s annual Halloween event with a full slate of nail-biting programming, and an online immersive experience for fans to enjoy from home.
Here’s what we know about “Huluween” 2021 so far.
Censor will be available on Hulu on October 14th.
“Film censor Enid takes pride in her meticulous work, guarding unsuspecting audiences from the deleterious effects of watching the gore-filled decapitations and eye gougings she pores over. Her sense of duty to protect is amplified by guilt over her inability to recall details of the long-ago disappearance of her sister, recently declared dead in absentia. When Enid is assigned to review a disturbing film from the archive that echoes her hazy childhood memories, she begins to unravel how this eerie work might be tied to her past.”
Niamh Algar, Nicholas Burns, Vincent Franklin, Sophia La Porta, Adrian Schiller, and Michael Smiley star.
Gaia will be available on Hulu on October 22nd.
“An injured forest ranger on a routine mission is saved by two off-the-grid survivalists. What is initially a welcome rescue grows more suspicious as the son and his renegade father reveal a cultish devotion to the forest. When their cabin is attacked by a strange being it’s clear there is a far greater threat in this unrelenting wilderness.”
Monique Rockman, Carel Nel, Alex van Dyk, and Anthony Oseyemi star.
Additional “Huluween” programming is coming soon. Stay tuned.
