Enter the workplace from hell with Human Resources, a gripping and sinister horror set to make its UK digital debut on 21 April via Miracle Media. The film marks the impressive feature debut of rising talent Braden Swope, who wrote, directed, edited, and produced the film at just 19 years old.
This eerie and award-winning horror follows Sam, a nervous student trying to make ends meet, played by Hugh McCrae Jr. (The Night They Came Home). Taking a job at the seemingly ordinary Brooke’s Hardware Store, Sam soon discovers something is deeply wrong behind the shopfront. When a former employee mysteriously vanishes, Sam joins forces with his jaded colleague Sarah, played by Sarah José (Runaway), to investigate the store’s hidden secrets.
What begins as curiosity quickly spirals into a nightmare, as the pair uncover a disturbing and deadly conspiracy that goes far beyond missing staff. With chilling discoveries lurking in the stockrooms and terrifying truths buried beneath the aisles, Sam and Sarah find themselves entangled in a horror that reaches far beyond what either of them could have imagined.
With themes of corporate control, paranoia, and personal responsibility, Human Resources blends psychological horror with a creeping sense of dread. Praised on the festival circuit for its unique setting and atmospheric tension, the film showcases Swope’s bold vision and knack for building suspense in the most unexpected places.
Human Resources is a terrifying reminder that some jobs come with more than just stress—sometimes, they come with consequences that can’t be clocked out of.
Human Resources is available on digital platforms from 21 April 2025.
