Fans of brutal slasher films will want to hop to this one.

PETER RABID, produced by Shogun Films, is coming to various entertainment platforms this year. It was directed by S.J. Evans from a script by Adam Stephen Kelly. Harrison Watson, Madeleine Sidi, Joseph Emms, Kirsty Howe, Harry Walters, Johnny Palmiero, Charlie Bentley, Elise Oliviea, Charles Smith, Jack Leonard, Jeanine Nerissa Sothcott and Guy Henry star, with 6-foot-4 Nick Onsloe in the title role. The synopsis: “A group of former schoolfriends reunite in a secluded mansion after the death of one of their former classmates. However, their mourning is cut short as masked maniacs–controlled by a deranged cult–arrive with one intention, to slaughter them all. Will any of the former school pals survive? Will anything remain of them after Peter Rabid and his insane sister Bedelia are finished?”
