Women often make the most captivating protagonists in the horror genre, as they’re not afraid to show their vulnerabilities and emotional complexities as they battle their fears. The new werewolf film, ‘Bloodthirsty,’ is a prime example of that strong drive in women to fight to survive during their darkest times.
The horror thriller powerfully creates a space for its protagonist, Grey, to explore the visceral manifestation of her internal struggles and anxieties when she discovers that she’s transitioning into a werewolf. The main character, who’s also made a name for herself as a popular singer-songwriter, is now contending with both her development into a monster, and her evolution as an artist after the release of her hit debut album. In order to discover her true self, she must survive the trials and tribulations of finding her voice as both a monster and an artist.
