Directed by CAM‘s Daniel Goldhaber, the new Faces of Death is co-written by Isa Mazze and stars Barbie Ferreira, Dacre Montgomery, Josie Totah, Charli XCX, and Jermaine Fowler.

The reboot of John Alan Schwartz’s controversial 1978 pseudo-documentary opens in theaters April 10, from IFC and Shudder.
