‘The Empty Man’: The cult horror hit you’ve never heard of

·

David Prior’s “The Empty Man” hit theaters in October 2020 and despite being a film by 20th Century, it received no advertising or fanfare whatsoever, which naturally resulted in the film having a remarkably short theatrical run. There is no logical explanation as to why the film is relevant today. However, “The Empty Man” has been given new life due to the advent of streaming services and has achieved a kind of underground cult status amongst fans of the horror genre.
