Smothered (film)

Smothered is a 2014 American horror comedy film directed by John Schneider. The film stars Bill Moseley, Kane Hodder, R.A. Mihailoff, Don Shanks, and Brea Grant.

The plot revolves around a struggling reality television show that assembles a cast of famous horror movie villains to participate in a road trip across the South. The premise involves the actors being placed in frightening scenarios to elicit genuine reactions, but things go awry when the situations become too real and the actors realize they are actually in danger. They are stalked by a deranged fan who takes his obsession too far.

The film blends elements of horror, comedy, and self-referential meta-commentary on the horror genre. It received mixed reviews upon its release, with some critics praising its humor and use of genre icons, while others found it to be uneven in its execution.
