Unveiling ‘It Feeds’: Ashley Greene Stars in Chilling Supernatural Thriller

Within the realm of horror cinema, there exist two distinct categories of terror: the tangible, real-world threat depicted by films featuring predatory animals like sharks, crocodiles, or giant serpents, and the ethereal, spectral varieties where the peril is less corporeal—think entities like those in The Babadook, Sinister, or classic Nosferatu. Falling into this second category is the film It Feeds, focusing on a dark, elusive creature that latches onto individuals and drains them, as suggested by its title. This creature might ring a bell for fans of The Conjuring or Insidious series, though it boasts an impressively crafted design courtesy of the special effects team.

Leading the cast is Ashley Greene, beloved by fans of the Twilight saga as the vibrant, psychic vampire Alice Cullen. In It Feeds, she delves back into the paranormal as Cynthia Winstone, a psychic psychiatrist who has the ability to sense the menacing entity and is initially reluctant to engage with it—though the narrative inevitably pulls her in. Joining her is Shawn Ashmore, formerly of the X-Men franchise, portraying a nervous father whose daughter (played by Shayelin Martin) is desperately trying to escape the torment inflicted by the entity.

The 2015 horror phenomenon It Follows introduced audiences to a chilling supernatural chase involving a shape-shifting entity passed through sexual encounters. While It Feeds is not directly related to It Follows, it shares thematic similarities with its title and the concept of a mysterious force methodically pursuing its victims. Catering to fans of sudden frights, It Feeds may not be overly graphic but relies heavily on its eerie, slender-fingered specter to deliver scares. Although it might not haunt viewers long after watching, it serves well as an unnerving way to spend your viewing time.
