Plot Summary: Prey, Man! follows Willie, a mild-mannered high school senior (William Steinfink), who faces a life-altering crisis when he finally hits puberty, causing his voice to drop and getting him kicked off his Varsity A Cappella team. Desperate to restore his "golden pipes" and find love, Willie experiments with human growth hormone (HGH) supplements, but the results are catastrophic. The HGH transforms him into a monstrous "praying man-thing," a creature with insect-like features and predatory instincts. As Willie grapples with his horrifying new form, he must evade The Exterminator (Nathaniel Abraham) and other quirky characters, including a hardened lieutenant and a Collegeboard CEO, in a chaotic, comedic battle for survival. Blending horror, humor, and musical elements, the film delivers a wild, absurd take on transformation and self-acceptance, culminating in a bizarre showdown.

Why It Fits: The film matches your query for Prey Man (2025), as the title Prey, Man! is a clear play on words, and the release date aligns. It’s a unique horror-comedy with a creature feature twist, distinct from other 2025 films like Prey (2024) or Predator: Badlands (2025), which don’t focus on a "preying man" narrative.

Availability: The film is set to release on May 15, 2025, and will be available on platforms like Plex, with potential for wider streaming or theatrical distribution. Check platforms like watch.plex.tv for updates closer to the release date.
