Trailer for Hulu's Sci-Fi Thriller THE MILL Sees a Man Forced to Work as a Beast of Burden to Stay Alive
Hulu released a trailer for an intriguing new sci-fi thriller from Hulu titled The Mill. This is part of their "Huluween" lineup and the story follows a businessman who wakes up in a prison cell with old grist mill. He is then forced to work for his survival.
The synopsis reads: "Prepare yourself for a life-altering experience…" 😱 A businessman (Lil Rel Howery) wakes up beside an ancient grist mill situated in the center of an open-air prison cell with no idea how he got there. Forced to work as a beast of burden to stay alive, he must find a way to escape before the birth of his child.”
It’s not hard to see the writing on the wall with this movie as it’s clearly a metaphor for capitalism and the main character grinds away to live another day. The movie comes from director Sean King O'Grady (Land Grab and Our American Family), and it also stars Pat Healy, Karen Obilom, and Patrick Fischler.
Hulu will debut The Mill on October 9th, 2023.
