Control Freak: A Hulu Horror That Will Make You Fear the Itch

Hulu’s newest psychological horror film, Control Freak, offers a chilling yet darkly comedic dive into perfectionism, control, and the horrifying consequences of losing both. Starring Kelly Marie Tran in a captivating lead role, this movie transforms a simple nuisance—an itchy scalp—into an unsettling body horror experience that will make you hyper-aware of every little tingle on your skin.

Kelly Marie Tran takes on the role of Val, a motivational speaker known for her Ted Talks, where she inspires thousands to take charge of their lives. On stage, she exudes confidence, but behind the scenes, Val struggles with internal battles she cannot seem to win. Beneath her poised exterior lies a woman plagued by compulsions and anxieties that refuse to be tamed.

When an unexplained itch starts tormenting her scalp, Val initially chalks it up to stress.

"There's something wrong with her..." "I can't stop!" Hulu has unveiled an official trailer for another new super creepy streaming horror film titled Control Freak, directed by filmmaker Shal Ngo. Even though it's not part of their usual Huluween offerings, this feels like it belongs in that category. In Control Freak, the very talented actress Kelly Marie Tran stars as Valerie, a woman whose life spirals into chaos due to an inexplicable & powerful affliction on her. Val is a motivational speaker who is tormented by an unrelenting itch on the back of her head, which turns out to be some gross parasitic demon.
