Ravenous

• Horror
• Drama
• Science Fiction

A chilling descent into primal desperation unfolds within the stark, snow-covered wilderness of 19th-century Quebec, where a remote military outpost is gripped by a horrifying outbreak of cannibalism sparked not by infection, but by a perverse, escalating hunger born of isolation and extreme conditions. This is not a typical zombie or slasher horror; it’s a darkly comedic and relentlessly grim exploration of societal collapse and the animalistic urges lurking beneath civility, framed within a historical setting. The film uses increasingly absurd justifications for cannibalism, mirroring the psychological breakdown of its characters and blurring the lines between victim and perpetrator, sanity and madness. A newcomer’s arrival inadvertently ignites the escalating crisis, testing the fragile bonds of camaraderie and exposing the disturbing lengths people will go to for survival – and a strange, perverse sense of fulfillment.
