Synopsis:
Indie Singer Grey is riding high on a hit first album, but she’s having writer’s block. In search of inspiration for her sophomore effort, Grey agrees to craft her next album at renowned producer Vaughn Daniels’ secluded cabin. Her girlfriend, however, is hesitant about the partnership, fearful that Vaughn is too controlling and - given his controversial past as a suspected murderer - too dangerous.
As Grey’s relationship with Vaughn develops, her music and lyrics become more powerful. Vaughn helps Grey beat down imposter syndrome and awaken a new part of herself. She taps into her body, her instincts, and ultimately her primal nature, but something else starts to change. The ferocity she accesses in her mind manifests itself in haunting nightmares and horrific physical changes. How far will Grey go to succeed, and who (or what) will she be by the end?
Lauren Beatty and Greg Bryk give stellar performances as two artists grappling with their inner demons and losing sight of their humanity. Lowell, who provides original music for the film and co-wrote the script with Wendy Hill-Tout, adds another dimension of meaning and entertainment value through her lyrics and hit-worthy songs.
Set in a snowy cabin far removed from society, it feels ripe for our times as isolation takes its toll. The film questions who we become when we’re left entirely to our devices without outside pressures. Is the person we are in these circumstances the truest reflection of ourselves, or something insidiously untamed?

Select Press:
C.H. Newell / Father Son Holy Gore
The view of monstrosity, from predators to artists, in Bloodthirsty is unforgettable.
Joy Robinson / Morbidly Beautiful
BLOODTHIRSTY is a near-perfect concoction, the cherries on top being the haunting soundtrack and the beautifully affective climatic transformation scene.
Matt Donato / What to Watch
Amelia Moses “Bloodthirsty” is a story about finding yourself, your true voice, while also commenting on the wolves who hide in the music industry.
Tyler Unsell / Signal Horizon Magazine
Bloodthirsty is one of my favorites. It’s cold and callous and seems to really channel the supernatural elements of what makes a good artist. Also its gruesome as hell, the scariest film I saw at the festival.
Brian Taylor / The Cine-Men
Having a pop star who comes from a family of werewolves, is kind of a brilliant idea.
Heather Wixson / Daily Dead
Bloodthirsty pulls no punches when it comes to pulling back the layers on just how all-consuming any artistic endeavor can be for creators.

Beatty has a great feel for Grey and gives a fantastic performance.
