The enchantment of cinema lies in its capacity to capture the intricacies of our world, reflecting its fundamental truths. Cinema is an eye-opener; it imparts sympathy and broadens our horizons to encompass larger societal issues. It has the power to transform us. Alternatively, it can offer a film featuring a homicidal sloth wielding a samurai sword, which, quite honestly, is a surprisingly entertaining choice. slotherhouse

On the surface, “Slotherhouse” (yes, the pun on “slaughterhouse” with sloths is intended) might appear to be following in the footsteps of typical productions from The Asylum. It could easily have fallen into the trap of being a low-budget, crowd-pleasing spectacle akin to “Sharknado,” with an attention-grabbing title and an outlandish premise that, in reality, amounts to a non-professional actor emoting in a single location for an hour, peppered with the same three VFX shots showcased in the trailer. Even if you have a peculiar fascination with the notion of watching a sloth dispatch a group of people, “Slotherhouse” initially seems unworthy of heightened expectations. However, dear reader, I implore you to raise your expectations, for “Slotherhouse” is a work of art. The film is remarkably well-crafted, uproarious, and fully realized, earning itself a theatrical release in the United States. While a UK release date remains uncertain, it unequivocally deserves to grace the largest cinema screens.

“Slotherhouse” narrates the tale of Alpha, an alarmingly psychopathic sloth snatched from the wilds of Panama to serve as a sorority house mascot. Initially, all seems well—Alpha even enhances the social media presence of the girl caring for her.

Yet, swiftly, the narrative takes a dark turn. How dark, you ask? That’s a valid question.

Do you yearn to witness a sloth fatally stab a woman? “Slotherhouse” awaits. Are you curious about observing a sloth intentionally electrocute an entire college shower room full of students? “Slotherhouse” beckons. Would you relish witnessing a sloth embark on a cinematic massacre rivaling that of Nat King Cole’s haunting soundtrack to a series of prison stabbings in “Breaking Bad”? “Slotherhouse” is your answer. Would you like to see a sloth take a selfie with one of its victims, tag it, and share it on Instagram? You know precisely what to do.

In a year inundated with surprisingly aggressive animal-centric films (think “Cocaine Bear,” “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey,” and the dishearteningly relentless vivisection masquerading as the third installment of “Guardians of the Galaxy”), “Slotherhouse” deserves to reign supreme. It’s not just about a murderous sloth darting through a building like an endearing Jason Voorhees; it’s a testament to the affection it holds for the genre it lovingly parodies. There are subtle nods to classics like “Gremlins,” “The Shining,” and “Fatal Attraction” — nothing overt or flashy, just enough to convey that “Slotherhouse” is a labor of love.

Moreover, it’s incredibly humorous. Naturally, a sloth is not inherently suited for high-density acts of violence, so witnessing one, albeit a somewhat rustic

animatronic version, carve through hordes of terrified college girls is a sight to behold. Yet, it’s the writing, acting, and direction that elevate the film beyond expectations.

A significant part of this success is credited to the British talent involved. Lisa Ambalavanar, who transitioned from a recurring role in the British soap “Doctors” to playing Jinx on “Titans” in just a few short years, takes on the lead role. Sydney Craven, known for her nearly 50-episode stint as Alexandra D’Costa on “EastEnders,” portrays the mean girl antagonist. Tiff Stevenson, recognized from “People Just Do Nothing,” delivers what could arguably be the lengthiest deathbed speech you’ll ever encounter. While it’s not entirely a British affair, with Kelly Lynn Reiter, known for a diverse

range of films including “Clown Hotel 2” and “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Murder,” making a notable contribution, there’s an unmistakable national essence throughout the film. Think of it as the “Paddington 2” of horror cinema.

Given the nature of the horror genre, there’s a small part of me that hesitates to wish success upon “Slotherhouse.” I dread it might follow in the footsteps of becoming the next “Lake Placid.” I fear that this audacious, well-informed, and original creature feature may gradually succumb to a string of lackluster, low-budget sequels, forfeiting the gleeful mischief of the original for a conveyor belt of uninspiring titillation. Nevertheless, despite these apprehensions about its future, we cannot allow a film centered around an unkillable, psychopathic sloth to fade into obscurity.

“Slotherhouse” must be seen. It deserves to be embraced by audiences on a grand scale, much like a blockbuster.
