From co-directors Matt Neal and writer/star Ryan Imhoff, comes a Zoom-style horror film produced during the early days of COVID-19 by a talented group of theatre actors and directors barred from their livelihoods due to the pandemic. The winner of four Best Feature Film Awards, including HorrorHound Film Festival’s top prize, FRESH HELL is available now for rental and purchase exclusively on Amazon Prime Video and Vudu.

Says Imhoff of his quarantine-creation, “FRESH HELL was born in July of 2020: a time that felt like hell because frankly, it was. Culturally, politically, and socially, the seams of our collective system showed. They frayed. This movie is a response and it’s an angry, brutal one. Sadly, the film is still as timely as ever; hopefully, it will one day become a time capsule for darker days long in the past. That said, there’s blood, there’re chuckles, and it’s very cool!”

Writer/Co-Director Ryan Imhoff as ‘Stranger.’

In addition to Imhoff, FRESH HELL stars Lanise Antoine Shelley, Will Mobley, and Crystal Kim. FRESH HELL was released yesterday, June 10th, on DVD and VOD by DeskPop Entertainment.

Synopsis: Inside the darkest days of 2020, a group of friends finally find the time to reunite online for virtual hugs, laughter, and drinks. But when one friend doesn’t log in and a stranger appears in her absence, they realize they’ve become part of a terrifying game of torture.
