We know a lot of people think sloths are really cute, and they are, but have you ever really looked at one? Those claws are scary! Great for holding onto trees, but also great for slashing someone to death if they wanted to, and in the upcoming film from director Matthew Goodhue one sloth DOES want to do that! That’s right, new horror comedy from Gravitas Ventures, ‘Slotherhouse’ plans to turn your favorite lazy animal icon into your new biggest fear. On the surface it seems like a creature so unhurried couldn’t possibly be scary, but leisurely king Michael Myers has spent decades murdering without quickening his step so we’re willing to give a sloth a chance. Check out the trailer below!

SYNOPSIS: 
It’s senior year of college for sorority sister Emily Young and for the first time ever, Sigma Lambda Theta is having elections for who will be president. Wanting to have a killer year, Emily Young realizes she might just be the best option for her sorority. While beginning her campaign, she finds an adorable sloth that steals her heart and soon realizes she just might steal the hearts, and votes, of her sorority sisters. But when bodies slowly begin to pile up in the Sigma Lambda Theta house, Emily and her sorority sisters realize the deaths are being caused by their new house mascot, the cuddly sloth Alpha. Will Emily and her sisters escape the house with their lives? Or is this death-sloth with 3 razor sharp claws too quick for them?
