Scream Factory seems to do two things better than almost any other DVD company today. They put out some fantastic classic movies in new editions (check out the amazing job they did with Halloween last year) and they bring us some new horror films that might have slipped by us somehow.

One of those new movies that is coming from Scream Factory is Animal, a 2014 horror release that stars Joey Lauren Adams (Chasing Amy) and was produced by none other than Drew Barrymore. The Scream Factory release hits DVD on Feb. 17. You can pre-order it from Scream Factory through their website, or help out Renegade Cinema by pre-ordering it from our Amazon.com link below.

There’s a part of the wilderness you haven’t explored yet. The deeper you go, the darker it gets. Something ominous is lurking and ready to plumb the weakness of the human psyche. On February 17, 2015, SCREAM FACTORY™ will unleash director Brett Simmons’ suspenseful creature thriller ANIMAL on Blu-ray™ and DVD. Executive produced by Flower Films, ANIMAL features a generous dose of suspense terror and follows a group of close-knit friends finding themselves stranded in unfamiliar territory, pursued by a menacing, blood thirsty predator. Holed up in an isolated cabin, tensions mount as long-buried secrets are revealed. As the body count rises, the group must put their differences aside and fight for survival.

The film stars Joey Lauren Adams (Chasing Amy, The Break-Up), Elizabeth Gillies (Victorious), Paul Iacono (Return To Sleepaway Camp), Eve Jeffers (Whip It), Thorsten Kaye (Smash), Amaury Nolasco (Prison Break, A Good Day To Die Hard), Keke Palmer (Masters Of Sex, Joyful Noise), Jeremy Sumpter (Friday Night Lights, Soul Surfer), Parker Young (Enlisted, Suburgatory) and features music by tomandandy (Resident Evil: Afterlife).

The film is written by Thommy Hutson and Catherine Trillo and directed by Brett Simmons; creature effects are by Gary J. Tunnicliffe.
