Eat is a psychological horror/thriller film released in 2014 and directed by Jimmy Weber. The film follows the life of Novella McClure, played by Meggie Maddock, a struggling actress who is desperate to land a role. However, she has developed a strange habit of self-cannibalism that she tries to keep hidden from everyone, including her landlord Eesha and her best friend Candice, played by Chelsea Gilson. Novella's condition starts to deteriorate, and she becomes more and more entranced with her flesh-eating habit.
As her mental and physical health deteriorates, Novella's relationships with those around her become strained. Her therapist, played by Jeremy Make, develops a romantic interest in her and tries to help her overcome her self-destructive behavior. However, it becomes clear that his intentions are not entirely pure, and Novella is left to face her demons alone.
The film is a disturbing examination of the pressure that the entertainment industry places on struggling actors and actresses to succeed. It delves into the dark, shadowy world of Hollywood nightlife, where drugs, sex, and moral decay thrive. The movie's surreal, dream-like atmosphere, coupled with its striking visuals and haunting soundtrack, helps to create an unsettling and unforgettable viewing experience.
