Check out the stylish poster and first-look stills at Matthew Ninaber’s Hy3na. The film will have its world premiere at this year’s Tubi FrightFest London.
Black Fawn Distribution has dropped the neon-soaked poster and a series of first-look stills for HY3NA. The hyper-stylized thriller from Matthew Ninaber will have its World premiere at Tubi FrightFest London. This premiere is scheduled for August 31st.
THE PREMISE
After a violent car crash links Nicole and the enigmatic Rachel to a string of brutal murders, two detectives uncover a world of corrupt online sex work, obsession, and manipulation. Moreover, as Nicole recounts her descent into Rachel’s seductive influence, the lines between protector, predator, and identity begin to collapse.
Set against a backdrop of stark urban decay and intimate, tension-filled spaces. HY3NA is a visually arresting film with complex characters. In addition, it has an unrelenting pace. Therefore, it is sure to captivate audiences with its shocking twists and turns.
CAST AND CREW
HY3NA stars Storm Steenson (Cup of Cheer, Beyond the Chamber of Terror), Kristen Kaster (Death Cycle, A Knight’s War), Jeremy Ninaber (A Knight’s War, Death Valley), and Matthew Ninaber.
Matthew Ninaber wrote and directed the film, and Jacqueline Ninaber produced it. Matthew Ninaber has crafted a name for himself since the release of his previous films, Death Valley (A Shudder Original) and A Knight’s War, the medieval horror that blasted to number 7 on Amazon in the US last year. On screen, Ninaber played the title character in Steven Kostanski’s Psycho Gorman, along with various characters in the recently released Deathstalker reboot.
MATTHEW NINABER STATEMENT
“What drew me to Hyena was the idea of how much we are willing to change ourselves to fit into our society. How we judge certain people for “selling their bodies” when, in reality, we are all doing that in our own way. I have done a lot of documentary work with survivors of abuse and people who have been taken advantage of. In many situations it starts the same: trading a small part of ourselves or crossing a line because we want to be loved or accepted, to be something that we think the world wants. And if you do it too long, you’ll end up not liking what you see in the mirror. That’s what I wanted to explore with this film. How that exchange fractures us. This movie is about love, belonging, and the violence that can happen when we don’t receive those things. It was a very challenging film to make as we aimed to strike the right balance of what to show and what not to. Making sure we weren’t being exploitative but also ensuring we were incorporating the elements we needed to tell this unique story.”
