Slotherhouse sounds like it’ll be a slow-moving slasher

Get ready to ask the ultimate horror movie question, “Why don’t they just run away?” with a new sense of non-urgency, as there’s a sloth horror movie on the way. 

This upcoming sloth horror-comedy is titled “Slotherhouse.”

The film is being released in the U.S. by Gravitas Ventures, who has picked up the rights to the film alongside Iconic Events. 

No trailer has been released yet, but the official poster nearly tells you everything you need to know about Slotherhouse. There’s a sorority, a sloth, some slashing. The rest: I’m sure it’ll all be great. 

UPDATE: There’s a trailer!

Here is the films description:

“Emily Young, a senior, wants to be elected as her sorority’s president. She adopts a cute sloth, thinking it can become the new mascot and help her win until a string of fatalities implicate the sloth as the main suspect in the murders.”

Slotherhouse is directed by Matthew Godhue, with a screenplay and story by Bradley Fowler and Cady Lanigan. The film stars Lisa Ambalavanar, Sydney Craven, Olivia Rouyre, Kelly Lynn Reiter, Bianca Beckles-Rose, Andrew Horton, Sutter Nolan, Grace Patterson, Milica Vrzić, Annamaria Serda, Rudi Rok, Tiff Stevenson and Stefan Kapičić.

Slotherhouse will be released on August 30th in the U.S., and there are plans for an international release, but a date or information on a distributor still needs to be determined.
