RLJE Films and Shudder, both part of AMC Networks, have acquired worldwide rights to Spider One’s upcoming film. Small bites. It is the third film by Rob Zombie’s younger brother, who follows in the footsteps of his big brother and whose debut film allegory and tracking Bury the bride. The log line alone is annoying.
In a desperate attempt to protect her ten-year-old daughter, a young widow allows a nightmarish monster to slowly eat her alive.
RLJE will release the film in theaters on October 4th, and Shudder will stream the film thereafter at a date to be announced.
The film stars Spider One’s lead actors and partners Kristy Fox, Elizabeth Caro, Jon Sklaroff and Chaz Bono, as well as horror icons Barbara Crampton, Heather Langenkamp and Bonnie Aarons.
Oh, and the legendary Cher served as executive producer on the film along with her son Chaz.
RLJE Films, a division of AMC Networks, and Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium streaming service for horror, thriller and supernatural, today announced that they have acquired the worldwide rights to SMALL BITEScreenplay and direction: Spider One (ALLEGORY) and with Kristy Fox (TERRIFIER 3), Elizabeth Caro (DISNEY JUNIOR’S ARIEL), Jon Sklaroff (GIFTED), Chaz Bono (AMERICAN HORROR STORY) and horror icons Barbara Crampton (JACOB’S WIFE), Heather Langenkamp (NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET) and Bonnie Aarons (The Nun).

SMALL BITE follows Mindy, a young widow and mother desperately trying to protect her daughter Alice from the clutches of a vicious, flesh-eating monster called Agyar. Mindy has secretly sacrificed her own life by allowing the creature to slowly feed on her body while she keeps Alice hidden in her grandmother’s house.
Director Spider One commented: “SMALL BITE began with a brutal look at my own experience as a parent. An experience that was and is a complex mess of love, pain, success, and failure. Where the best intentions are constantly undone by the dark forces of self-doubt and the judgment of others. In the film, Mindy’s relationship with her monster Agyar is clearly my allegory for parenting. His bites are her pain. His words are her insecurities. His intentions are to prove Mindy’s failure as a parent. Krsy Fox and Jon Sklaroff exceeded my wildest expectations with their portrayals of Mindy and Agyar, and I can’t wait to work with Shudder/RLJE again and let horror fans sink their teeth into the film. SMALL BITE“
“We are thrilled to be working with Spider One again on this terrifying film,” said Mark Ward, Chief Acquisitions Officer of RLJE Films. “He continues to be a powerful visionary talent and we can’t wait for audiences to see him. SMALL BITE in theaters this fall.”
The film is produced by Spider One and Krsy Fox’s OneFox Productions. The deal was negotiated by Dan Rozenblum at 33rd and West on behalf of the filmmakers and Mark Ward on behalf of RLJE and Shudder.
