Parker can be seen in all of Mike Flanagan’s hit Netflix anthology series. She’ll also be seen in the upcoming horror movie The Beldham.
Sam Huntington most recently can be seen in a major supporting role in Bride Hard opposite Rebel Wilson. He’s also well known for starring in Syfy’s Being Human, which ran for four seasons, and recently appeared in Warner Bros.’ Sully, directed by Clint Eastwood, and Superman Returns.
IFC Midnight’s creature feature The Wretched made headlines with a $4 million worldwide box office haul back in 2020, with much of the film’s success coming from the drive-in circuit. Stay tuned for more on the sequel, The Wretched Devours, as it arrives.
If you missed The Wretched back in 2020, you can stream the film on Hulu, Netflix, and Shudder now.
