Noseeums, a new horror-thriller from debut filmmaker Raven Carter, had its World Premiere at horror film festival, FrightFest in London last night and to celebrate, we have an exclusive teaser trailer from the film!
Watch it here…
The film follows college student Ember, who is invited to join her white friends for a fun weekend at the country home of school Queen Bee Abigail. However, she finds the place unsettling and oddly familiar. Drawn to an unkempt grave in the backwoods, Ember begins to be plagued by buzzing, biting, vicious almost invisible, black bugs known throughout Florida as Noseeums. Along with this constant irritation, she starts having premonitions of grisly death and bewildering, chilling flashbacks. Soon, the shocking lore of the land becomes clear as restless spirits seek a festering retribution for past crimes, and Ember embraces long overdue vengeful acts…
“I grew up watching horror films with my family and it was one of the things we could all enjoy together,” says Carter. “To be able to premiere Noseeums with an audience of passionate genre film lovers is a dream come true”
Produced in collaboration with Florida State University’s College of Motion Picture Arts, Noseeums is Torchlight Studios’ first feature. Executive Director Reb Braddock calls its FrightFest premiere “a proud moment for our studio.”
“Noseeums delivers more than scares, it carries a cultural heartbeat that’s as compelling as its horror,” says Michael Favelle, CEO of International Sales company Odin’s Eye Entertainment. “Raven Carter’s storytelling blends atmosphere, urgency, and authenticity in a way that will resonate not just across America, but with audiences worldwide.”
Noseeums had its premiere at FrightFest London on 23rd August 2025.
