FEED ME Teaser Trailer (2022)

FEED ME follows Mulvin’s character Jed, whose life is shattered when his wife, played by Loxley, suddenly dies and Jed feels directly responsible. Spiraling into an abyss of depression, he finds himself in a bar with deranged cannibal, Lionel Flack (Ward, in a truly star-making performance) who convinces him he can redeem himself through the glorious act of allowing himself to be slowly eaten to death.

Shapiro remarks “I was truly blown away by FEED ME. I’ve watched this movie ten times since I first saw it because it’s such a blast. This is a horror film for the real sickos out there, myself included. I haven’t had this much fun watching a horror movie since DRAG ME TO HELL. This is not a brooding horror drama about grief and the human existence. FEED ME is a rollercoaster ride full of thrills, laughs and screams and it brings buckets and buckets of gore and grime to the table. I had to release this for Halloween. Dinner is served!”

The world premiere of FEED ME will be on on October 6th at Los Angeles’s pre-eminent genre film festival – Beyond Fest. XYZ Films has dated the release for October 27th on digital and on demand platforms.
