From the mind of Greg Nicotero, special effects legend and executive producer of “The Walking Dead” and “Creepshow,” comes a competition to die for.
Guts & Glory debuts with a two-episode premiere on September 9 on Shudder and AMC+ with new episodes following weekly on Tuesdays. Watch the trailer below.
Nicotero serves as host and showrunner of the series, which he describes as “if ‘Survivor‘ and The Blair Witch Project had a baby.”
The six-episode show flips the script on the traditional reality competition – thrusting players into an immersive horror experience full of unexpected, genre-themed challenges.
The unscripted series blends the intensity of a horror film with the pressure of a reality show survival game, confronting the contestants’ fears, skill and intellect in various scenarios. Players must survive the night or be eliminated in ways they never saw coming.
Nicotero executive produces alongsideBrian Witten from Monster Agency Productions, Chris Wagner from White Label, and Andrew Molina from Salaryman. Jeffrey F. January co-executive produces.
