In mid-1990s suburbia, three teenagers discover a ritualistic murderer on a stolen crime scene videotape and inadvertently release a supernatural killer into their world.

SYNOPSIS:

Killer Video is written by Jerrod D. Brito and outlined with the help of former Blumhouse Story Consultant, Karina Wilson.

“Killer Video” is a fun and freaky homage to youth going wild in the 90s that mixes the humor and horror of “Clown In a Cornfield,” “Stranger Things,” and “Fear Street.” SYNOPSIS:

As three teenage outcasts in mid-1990s suburbia spend one final summer together before their lives change forever, they obtain a disturbing video that was stolen from a crime scene several months ago. Feeling the oppression of strict conservative families, divorcing parents, and a xenophobic society, the boys plan to run away to L.A. to break into the film industry and leave their toxic environments behind. But, when the teens watch the forbidden video, they see a botched human sacrifice ritual that ends in the killer being killed by his prey. By watching the video and continuing the ritual, the teens inadvertently release the killer into their world, allowing him to travel within shadows to continue his murder spree every time someone plays the video. To survive, the teens must overcome zealots, high school bullies, and their supernatural adversary long enough to discover the killer’s origin and weakness. But with time running out and with their friends’ and families’ lives in danger, the teens must enlist the help of a know-it-all video store clerk who dabbles in the occult to help them defeat the evil before it consumes them all.
