The film stars Hannah Fierman (V/H/S), Laurence R. Harvey (The Human Centipede 2), and Tristan Risk (American Mary). Framed around a forbidden television broadcast transmitting lost tapes, the film unearths a series of disturbing, illicit video recordings.

Stream of Terror
Tapping into modern digital anxiety, Stream of Terror delivers a fast-paced techno-slasher designed for the social media age. Written and directed by Marcus Rossi, the film stars Chloe Bennett, Tyler Wade, and Jessica Alvarez.

All while millions of unsuspecting fans watch live online. Audiences can stream the carnage starting October 20.
