SOHO International Film Festival to World Premiere "Bloodhound" by E.B. Hughes

Published by New Jersey Stage

originally published: 10/03/2026

(NEW YORK, NY) — South Jersey filmmaker E.B. Hughes will have the World Premiere screening of his psychological thriller, Bloodhound, at the SOHO International Film Festival on Friday, October 9, 2026 at the Regal Union Square Theater 12. The screening begins at 7:30pm.

Exiled to a deceptively quiet town, a fractured former big-city detective tracks a sadistic killer only to realize the local secrets are weaponizing his own deteriorating sanity against him as he uncovers the truth.

The entire film was shot right against the stark, atmospheric winter backdrops of Avalon and Sea Isle City, capturing the unique, moody isolation of the off-season Jersey shore in a cinematic 2.39 widescreen format.

The production is anchored by a stellar veteran ensemble cast, including Stelio Savante (The Chosen, Infidel), Corin Nemec (Stargate SG-1), Randy McDowell, and Hannah Fierman (V/H/S)

Bloodhound was written, produced and directed by E.B. Hughes. This is his fourth independent feature following Turnabout (2016), Exit 0 (2019), and The Long Way Back (2021).
