This ‘The Devil’s Candy’ Poster Shows One of Satan’s Pawns (Exclusive)
Pruitt Taylor Vince plays the antagonist, Ray Smilie, in Loved Ones director Sean Byrne’s heavy metal horror film, The Devil’s Candy, which will be releasing in limited theaters and on VOD platforms March 17th via IFC Midnight.
As this exclusive poster teases, Smilie is a pawn of the dark one, potentially one of his demons doing his bidding here on Earth. This beautiful piece of IFC Midnight art was created by Ken Taylor, whose other works can be found at his official website.
In THE DEVIL’S CANDY, Jesse, a struggling artist, moves with his wife and daughter into their dream house in rural Texas, the price driven down by the property’s dark past. Their lives soon begin to unravel as the demonic forces lurking in the house take hold of the young family. Jesse’s paintings take a satanic turn while the family is plagued by Ray, the deranged son of the former owners. Soon it becomes clear that Jesse and Ray are both being influenced by the same dark forces and that Jesse and his family aren’t safe from its former inhabitants or indeed from the devil himself.
The film, written and directed by Byrne, stars Ethan Embry, Shiri Appleby, Pruitt Taylor Vince and Kiara Glasco. It was produced by Keith Calder and Jessica Calder for Snoot Entertainment LLC (Blair Witch, You’re Next, The Guest).

Canadian filmmaker Houston Bone directed Son of Sara.
Houston Bone said in a statement, “After gagging Toronto at Blood in the Snow this past winter, we are excited to be working with Saban to bring our grisly horror movie, and our new little monster, to audiences across the United States. This film has been a passion project for all of us since we shot it back in October 2023. Real blood, sweat, and tears went into bringing Son of Sara to the screen. We are humbled and thrilled by the response from film festival audiences so far. It is a dream come true to be sharing this film at this scale internationally.”
