Hellbender
Directed by John Adams, Zelda Adams, Toby Poser
16 year-old Izzy leads an isolated life on a lonely mountaintop. All she’s learned is from her protective mom and the wilderness that swallows them. Questioning her illness and starved for companionship, Izzy sneaks down the mountain where she befriends brazen Amber. Izzy is in heaven, until a cruel drinking game with a live worm unleashes a new kind of hunger. Confused and scared, Izzy appeals to Mom for answers. But Mom’s secrets are as old and dark as the bloodline from which they’re born, and her grip is tight. Nature can only sleep for so long though, and when it wakes, it’s hungry as hell. A SHUDDER ORIGINAL
There will be Hell to pay when a lonely teen discovers her family’s ties to witchcraft.
Cast: Zelda Adams, Toby Poser, Lulu Adams, John Adams

Fun movie, a bit slow.
After multiple watches, I love it even more. Such a unique story, world, and characters. It wouldn't be better with a bigger budget. Perfect!
I liked it, fun to watch. Certainly not the greatest horror movie ever made, but well-crafted and unique. Loved the band!
Good movie. Some great visual effects, some not so great. What really took some skulls off for me were some really awkward tone shifts.
Refreshing, artistic and unique. Loved every minute.
