Today, Prime Video has released the official trailer for the highly anticipated new series “The Horror of Dolores Roach.”

 

Starring Justina Machado, “The Horror of Dolores Roach” is based on the hit Spotify podcast series of the same name and is a contemporary Sweeney Todd-inspired urban legend of love, betrayal, weed, cannibalism, and survival of the fittest.

 

In the series, Dolores Roach (Justina Machado) is released after an unjust 16-year prison sentence, and she returns to a gentrified Washington Heights. Dolores reunites with an old stoner friend, Luis (Alejandro Hernandez), who lets her live and work as a masseuse in the basement under his empanada shop. When the promise of her newfound stability is quickly threatened, “Magic Hands” Dolores is driven to shocking extremes to survive.

 

The series also stars Justina Machado, Alejandro Hernandez, Kita Updike, and K. Todd Freeman.

 

Originally created by Aaron Mark as a one-woman play, Empanada Loca, Mark created, wrote, and directed the original podcast and penned the series pilot script. The new series comes from Mark, who also serves as co-showrunner and executive producer with Dara Resnik, alongside executive producers Daphne Rubin-Vega; Jason Blum, Chris McCumber, Jeremy Gold, and Chris Dickie for Blumhouse Television; Dawn Ostroff, Mimi O’Donnell, and Justin McGoldrick for Spotify; Gloria Calderón Kellett for GloNation Studios; and Roxann Dawson, who directed the pilot.

 

The eight-episode Amazon Original series, “The Horror of Dolores Roach,” will premiere on July 7, 2023, exclusively on Prime Video.
