The passenger stars Ramiro Blas (“Blackwod”), Cecilia Suarez (“House of Flowers”), Paula Gallego (“Paquita Salas”) and Christina Alcazar (“Puppy”).
Raul Cerezo and Fernando Gonzalez Gomez directed the highly conceptual horror film, which is nothing short of grotesque, delivering buckets of blood and outrageous effects.
Even today, director B. Harrison Smith (Death House, The Special) is back with a new Lionsgate slasher Where the scary things arewhich is now available on both digital and DVD.
The movie will be billed as “Stand by me or The Goonies… With a nice dark twist. ”
“The horror begins when Ayla and her high school friends discover a horrific, semi-human mutant. They keep it captured while recording repulsive viral videos, but the gang’s hunger for ‘likes’ causes them to film the beast committing murderous acts.
“When a boy sees Ayla using the monster’s gruesome violence to decide his own vendettas, he threatens to tell the authorities – but is he too late to save his friends?”
This week’s biggest new release is of course “Stranger Things 4: Volume 2”The final two episodes of the fourth season, bringing the epic finale to Netflix on Friday, July 1st.
