*Long-listed for the Bram Stoker Award*
In this incendiary mash-up of horror and suspense, a notorious slasher film is remadeโฆand the curse that haunted it is reawakened.
Fresh off the plane in L.A., here to visit the set of a new streaming horror series, journalist Laura Warren sees a man jumping from a bridge, landing right behind her car. Itโs started, she thinks. Because the series sheโs reporting on is a remake of a โ90s horror flick. A cursed โ90s horror flick, which she starred in as a childโand has been running from her whole life.
When Laura was eight years old, eight members of the cast and crew died in ways that eerily mirrored the movieโs on-screen deaths, making the film a cult classicโand ruining her life. She changed her name and her accent, dyed her hair, and moved across the Atlantic. But some scripts donโt want to stay buried.
Now, as the body count rises again, Laura finds herself on the run with her aspiring actress sister and a jaded psychic, hoping to end the curse once and for all.
