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

pretty fun, well acted, minimalist (except for two 30 second scenes), throw back horror with an updated twist. i would have loved to give it 7/10, but it has to be in incrimiment.
Slow burn and moody like a teenager. Loved the folk elements. New fave.
Dope concept, cool music, cool effects and an interesting story. Only thing I always see is a depiction of teenagers in a cheesy way in movies but I mean it’s not a big part of the story so whatever lol
It was. . . fine; interesting concept, very slow delivery, the ending was pretty gnarly though.
this was sooo so good
