After putting a youthful, female-centric spin on vampiredom in “Bleed With Me,” Canadian director Amelia Moses does the same favor for werewolves in “Bloodthirsty.” This sophomore feature is likewise a slow-burning tale set among three primary characters in a remote setting. But this time the script is by producer Wendy Hill-Tout and her daughter, singer-songwriter Lowell, who make the pressures of the music industry integral to the story.Bloodthirsty 2021 Movie Download.
To a degree, that emphasis may disappoint horror fans who want more of the fanged action that takes its time arriving here. But within its modest boundaries, “Bloodthirsty” does a creditable enough job balancing supernatural suspense with the drama of a young artist’s insecurities at a key early career juncture. It may be one big metaphor, but as they go, “Recording a second album made me a monster” has the ring of truth. Brainstorm Media is releasing to VOD on April 23 in the U.S.; Raven Banner will simultaneously release in Canada.
Grey (Lauren Beatty, who was also in “Bleed”) is a 20-something performer whose first album was apparently a hit — enough so that the press are badgering her for news of on a followup, as well as whether she plans to marry her live-in girlfriend. She finds both topics invasive, though at least domesticity with painter Charlie (Katherine King So) is a stable, supportive element in her life. Charlie, however, is none too supportive upon learning that Grey has chosen as her next disc’s producer the esteemed but reclusive Vaughn Daniels (Greg Bryk) … or rather, he has deigned to work with her. This is problematic because not so long ago he was tried for the murder of another young woman he was recording, though the charges were eventually dropped.
The two women nonetheless drive into the boonies to his home-slash-studio, an impressive, slightly sinister manse complete with an imperious Mrs. Danvers-like housekeeper (Judith Buchan as Vera).
