There have been many board games turned into movies; Clue, Ouija, Battleship, Jumanji, Dungeons & Dragons to name a few.
But now ‘Hungry Hungry Hippos’ hits the big screen but not as a fun adventure rather a straight-up, man vs. nature horror movie called “Hungry”.
“Hungry” is about a rampaging, killer hippo that targets an off-course tour boat in the Louisiana swamps – so instead of devouring marbles the hippos have acquired a taste for human flesh.
The horror website “Dread Central” said of the trailer: “…it impresses with its straight-faced intensity and clear throwback to survival horror staples like Razorback. It’s Jaws only with an extremely hungry hippo that stalks and kills people like the very best of slashers. It looks really, really good!”
“Hungry” hits VOD and digital platforms on June 23rd, 2026.
