THE HUG (hulu)

11M+ views on Youtube, plus 1000s of reaction videos Widely considered to be the first animatronic horror movie, this viral short follows a disobedient young boy who runs amok in a children’s pizza arcade and soon finds himself in an awkward situation with an animatronic. Following its online success a feature film version was developed and greenlit, but an ancient Hollywood curse prevented it from ever coming to fruition. Made for Hulu.
