Theater Is Dead will have its world premiere at Fantastic Fest next Tuesday, September 23, and we have an exclusive teaser trailer for you below.
The darkly comic horror thriller is a subversive exploration of ambition, power, and the exploitation of artists and anyone chasing a dream. Blending sharp humor with supernatural forces, it captures the chaos of theater and the evil that can thrive beneath the spotlight.
Seduced by the world of theater, bright-eyed engineering student Willow unexpectedly lands the lead in a mysterious production from a renowned director. But as rehearsals intensify and cast members begin to act strangely, Willow discovers the production is more ritual than play — and opening night may demand a real sacrifice.
Decker Sadowski, Olivia Blue, Madison Lawlor (The Conjuring: Last Rites), Shane West (The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen), Jacob Nichols, Stephanie Suganami (Opus), Colin McCalla (“9-1-1”), Dylan Adler, Tammy Tavares (“Days of Our Lives”), and Julie Wittner.
Katherine Dudas directs from a script she co-wrote with Sadowski, Blue, and Lawlor.
