If you thought prices, festival traffic, and lukewarm hard seltzers were the worst parts of summer festival season, Quiver Distribution is here to ruin your summer travel plans completely.

The intense new horror-thriller Kill Trip is officially out now on VOD and Digital. It’s the perfect reminder that if a strangers-only carpool sounds too good to be true, it’s probably because you’re about to end up as a skin suit.

Rule #1: Never Accept the Ride

The plot follows a group of carefree festivalgoers. They are just trying to hitch a ride to the best, most music-filled weekend of their lives. Unfortunately, they have clearly never watched a single horror movie in their entire lives. They accept a lift from the absolute wrong stranger.

Naturally, the road trip immediately spirals into a waking nightmare. However, the passenger count begins to dwindle, and they start vanishing into thin air. Survival becomes a desperate race against an unseen evil. Getting a ticket to the festival was the easy part. The grim truth is that not everyone will live to see Austin.

Facing the Music

Written and directed by Kristian McKay, this feature serves up a heavy dose of psychological tension and classic survival dread. McKay also produced the film alongside Daunish Alcott, ensuring the suspense hits top gear before the credits roll.

The film boasts a stacked ensemble cast of genre veterans and fresh faces ready to face the music. That includes Tate Christensen, Diletta Guglielmi, Stelio Savante, Corin Nemec, and Samaire Armstrong. Brittany McVicker, Todd Jenkins, and John Ford Coley round out the group.

Currently sitting at a spicy “Not Rated,” Kill Trip is tailor-made for fans who like their road trips with a side of absolute panic. Lock your car doors, ignore the hitchhikers, and queue this one up on your favorite digital platform tonight. Engineered for maximum suspense, Kill Trip is available to rent or purchase today on Apple TV, Prime Video, Google Play, and VOD providers.
