The Ghouls (a.k.a. Cannibal Dead: The Ghouls) is an American independent horror film that was written and directed by Chad Ferrin.
The film, described as "a no-budget horror opus" and a "vicious cross between Paparazzi and Kolchak: The Night Stalker", was independently produced and shot guerilla style in Los Angeles on Mini DV for $15,000.
Eric Hayes (Muskatell) makes his living as a news stringer finding gruesome atrocities and filming them to sell to the media. One night, he stumbles upon some ghouls devouring a young woman in an alley. After discovering that he didn't have any film in his camera, Hayes convinces his friend Clift (Haaga) to help him track down the ghouls again.
According to Trent Haaga, Ferrin originally set out to create "C.H.U.D. in L.A." After selling his Ford Mustang in order to finance the film, Ferrin gathered some friends and shot the film around Los Angeles.
The Ghouls won the 2003 "Sinners Award" at the Saints and Sinners Film Festival.
