The Battle Begins After Victims’ Limbs Are Swapped For Weapons In ‘Spare Parts’

This summer an all-girl band falls prey to a sadistic madman and forced to battle in RLJE Films’ action-horror Spare Parts, by director Andrew Thomas Hunt (Sweet Karma).

After a proposed pipeline creates divisions within the small town of Beaverfield, and a snowstorm traps its residents together inside the local inn, newly arrived forest ranger Finn (Sam Richardson) and postal worker Cecily (Milana Vayntrub) must try to keep the peace and uncover the truth behind a mysterious creature that has begun terrorizing the community in Werewolves Within.
