Directed by: Mitch McLeod

A true crime Vodcast host declining in popularity receives the career opportunity of a lifetime when a mysterious stranger invites her into its dangerous world.

Mitch McLeod (Silhouette) directed the film from a screenplay that was written by lead actress Jessica Dawn Willis (The Woman Under the Stage) and author Preston Fassel (Our Lady of the Inferno) and happens to be inspired by actual events that took place in McLeod’s life, although Willis and Fassel are said to have put a heavy fictionalized twist on those events. Willis takes on the role of Jamie Foster, a formerly successful vlogger who attempts to revitalize her career by inviting her stalker onto the show, knowing he may be the serial killer responsible for murdering a string of influencers. Although Jamie’s views go up, she begins to realize more than her life is at stake when the stalker’s identity, and humanity, come into question.

Our friends at Bloody Disgusting note that “Harris plays Camilla, Jamie’s wealthy yet ruthless aunt whose threats to cut funding drive Jamie’s desperation to succeed, while Ironside appears as Dr. Jonathan Myers, a disgraced ex-psychiatrist who survived a mysterious encounter with Jamie’s stalker in the past.”
