Eddie the Sleepwalking Cannibal comes to dinner this April; find out where inside!

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Music Box Films will introduce us to EDDIE THE SLEEPWALKING CANNIBAL in a mere few weeks. And why wouldn’t you want to meet the chap? The film will be released theatrically in New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Beverly Hills and Pasadena, CA on April 5th. It will also be available on VOD that very same day.

When Lars’s art dealer Ronny arranges a teaching job in a small town as a “therapeutic measure” to stir up his creative juices, things don’t quite turn out as planned. At first, life in the peaceful small town seems rosy, as he settles in and impresses beautiful fellow colleague Leslie (Georgina Reilly) by taking in the brawny, mute Eddie (Dylan Smith) after the latter’s caregiver passes away. But Lars soon discovers that the façade of serenity hides something unimaginable: Eddie suffers from a rare form of sleepwalking that transforms him from a docile, cereal-obsessed art student into a ravenous sleepwalking cannibal. Initially horrified by Eddie’s dark secret, Lars becomes enthralled by the not-so-gentle giant. Exceptional art comes at a very high price…and how far is Lars willing to go for his next masterpiece?
