Ghoul (2015) is a supernatural horror film that delves into the chilling real-life story of Andrei Chikatilo, the Soviet Union's most notorious serial killer. In this gripping tale, three adventurous Americans embark on a journey to Ukraine with the aim of capturing the harrowing cannibalism epidemic that plagued the country during the 1932 famine. Intent on filming a documentary, they are determined to interview one of the few remaining survivors.
However, what starts as a quest for truth and knowledge soon takes a sinister turn. As the trio enters the dense Ukrainian forest to meet their interviewee, they unwittingly find themselves trapped in an eerie and otherworldly hunting ground. From this point, the film takes a terrifying twist, as they become the pursued rather than the pursuers.
