Stars: Lauren Beatty, Greg Bryk, Katharine King So, Michael Ironside, Judith Buchan | Written by Wendy Hill-Tout, Lowell | Directed by Amelia Moses
We reviewed Amelia Moses’ Bleed With Me at Fantasia last year. And now her latest feature, Bloodthirsty, co-written by Wendy Hill-Tout and her daughter Lowell, is screening at Frightfest after a successful US festival run. Her first film was a take on vampirism, the second takes on lycanthropy. Can she go two for two in updating classic monsters?
Grey is a singer with a hit debut album. She also has writer’s block and nightmares about becoming a wolf. Dr. Swan gives her pills but they aren’t helping. She might have a cure for her writing issues though. Vaughn Daniels a reclusive producer whose career is equal parts successful and controversial has offered his services. Grey and her girlfriend Charlie (Katharine King So; Transplant) take up residence at his isolated studio.

Released soon after Amelia Moses’ intriguing feature debut Bleed With Me, this is a far more camp and cliched work
Following quickly on the heels of the intriguing Bleed With Me, released in the UK just a couple of weeks ago, this beast-within horror film is directed by Canadian Amelia Moses, collaborating again with lead actor Lauren Beatty. Where Bleed With Me impressed with its willingness to remain ambiguous and use the most basic of tech to create atmosphere, Bloodthirsty is much more front and centre with the gore and the prosthetics and the on-the-nose subtexts. It makes for a much less interesting work, to be honest – one that exposes the cliches embedded in the script which here is not by Moses but Wendy Hill-Tout and mono-monikered musician Lowell. (The latter also wrote the music that plays a crucial role.)

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.
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.

"There's nothing that you have to hide from me." Brainstorm Media has released the first official trailer for Bloodthirsty, an indie horror film from filmmaker Amelia Moses bringing us her second feature after Bleed With Me. This originally premiered at Fantastic Fest and the Telluride Horror Show last year. This fresh new take on werewolves involves an indie singer who is having visions that she is a wolf. When Grey gets an invitation to work with notorious music producer Vaughn Daniels at his remote studio in the woods she begins to find out who she really is. Conceived and written by mother-daughter duo Wendy Hill-Tout and singer-songwriter Lowell, and featuring the original music of Lowell. The film stars Lauren Beatty (Bleed With Me) and Greg Bryk, with Katharine King So in her feature film debut, plus veteran actor Michael Ironside. This looks gnarly and unique, another clever indie reinvention in the werewolf genre.

“Bloodthirsty,” a werewolf thriller about a rising singer who finds herself in a compromising position, has sold U.S. distribution rights to Brainstorm Media. It will release in theaters and on demand on April 23.
The film, which premiered at the virtual Fantastic Fest Celebration, was directed by Amelia Moses. Wendy Hill-Tout wrote the script with her daughter, songwriter Lowell.
The story centers on Grey (portrayed by Lauren Beatty), a singer who relocates to a remote cabin to work on her second album with noted music producer Vaughn Daniels (Greg Bryk). But as her songwriting progresses, she starts to transform into a powerful, bloodthirsty beast.
Lowell says the film was inspired by her own experiences and the pressure she felt when trying to write a follow-up album to her first record, “We Loved Her Dearly.” Along with crafting the screenplay, she also wrote original music for “Bloodthirsty.”

Romanticized of late by disgruntled Americans enraged with President Trump and threatening immigration to its friendly northern neighbor, Canada has always held a significant spot in the zeitgeist of popular culture (Celine Dion! Justin Beiber! Ryan Gosling!). “Everything is better in Canada!” has been the ubiquitous trope echoing across the United States these past four years, with promises of socialized medicine, fresh, crisp air and a bounty of polite Canadians within reach across the border — if only those borders were open.
But aside from deeply entrenched stereotypes in the way of moose, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tim Hortons donuts, what do Americans truly know and understand about Canada?
The Whistler Film Fest, launching its 20th edition Dec. 1-20, has always emphasized its commitment to bolstering the global exposure for Canadian filmmakers — and, by proxy, Canadian cultural content. This year is no exception. With an online model in place due...

Right now, Canadian filmmaker Amelia Moses has two different features making the rounds on the festival circuit: Bleed with Me and Bloodthirsty, which just celebrated its world premiere at the virtual edition of Fantastic Fest 2020 (you can read my review of Bloodthirsty Here).
Last week, Daily Dead had the opportunity to speak with Moses about Bloodthirsty, which is centered around a songwriter dealing with her monstrous transformation into a werewolf, and Amelia discussed what initially drew her to the project, her experiences collaborating with Lauren Beatty once again on the film, tackling the challenges of doing a werewolf story for Bloodthirsty, and more.
Great to speak with you, Amelia, and congratulations on the film. There are some definitely interesting parallels with the transformation that Grey undergoes in this movie versus the creative process and the things that people undergo when they're sort of dealing with their own creativity.

One of my favorite tropes in horror is whenever the creative process and monstrous transformations intersect, which is why Amelia Moses’ Bloodthirsty ended up being right up my proverbial alley. Anchored by a mesmerizing lead performance from Lauren Beatty, and featuring a soundtrack that just kills it from start to finish, Bloodthirsty pulls no punches when it comes to pulling back the layers on just how all-consuming any artistic endeavor can be for creators, but especially those who also happen to be struggling with the fact that they are transforming into a werewolf and there’s not much they can do about it.
In Bloodthirsty, Beatty plays an indie singer named Grey, who is struggling to put together her second album and also happens to be grappling with some vivid nightmares involving her having very lycanthropic eyes, some teeth trauma, and random appearances of blood. She’s been seeing a...

Things get gruesome in Amelia Moses’ werewolf thriller “Bloodthirsty.” The upcoming film follows a rising singer and songwriter named Grey (Lauren Beatty), who goes to work on her second album with noted music producer Vaughn Daniels (Greg Bryk) at his remote cabin in the woods.
But as the music making progresses, she begins a gruesome transformation into a powerful beast with a yearning for blood.
In an exclusive clip of “Bloodthirsty,” Daniels invites her to have dinner with him alone. He continues to push her boundaries, offering her a drink of absinthe despite her reluctance, which leads to an unexpected reaction.
Moses directed the movie from a script written by Wendy Hill-Tout and her daughter, songwriter Lowell. The duo wanted to collaborate on a script, Hill-Tout said, and they came up with the concept that later became the story for “Bloodthirsty.”
