Release the Hounds

2013 | Action | Horror

Horror-themed game show that pushes contestants to the edge through gruesome tests that take place during the night in a remote forest. In each episode, three contestants enter the forest at dusk and are told they have the opportunity to unlock chests full of money. What they're not told is that in order to win big, they have to conquer some of the scariest challenges they'll ever face in order to locate the hidden keys. And if the contestants manage to pass the mental and physical tests, they still must outrun a pack of dogs -- trained to guard the cash -- in order to earn all the money. Yates follows the contestants' progress throughout their ordeal, from a safe location outside the forest, and acts as their communication with the outside world.
