The true-crime shocker is coming from two veterans of the form.

Epic Pictures opens SUNSET STRIP KILLERS theatrically July 10 and brings it to streaming July 14 under the Dread banner. The film, which we first told you about with exclusive photos here, was directed by Chad Ferrin (ED KEMPER, PIG KILLER) from a script by Chuck Parello (director of HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER II. Susan Priver, Max E. Williams, Robert Miano, Brian Foyster, Bella Glanville, Ezra Buzzington, Silvia Spross, Brenda James, Ema Masala, Patty Hayes, Neb Chupin, Marie Solimena, Katie Silverman and Kurt Bonzell star, with makeup effects by Joe Castro. The synopsis: “Los Angeles, 1980. Beneath the glittering lights of the Sunset Strip, a horrifying tale of obsession and bloodshed unfolds. Carol Bundy [Priver], a lonely nurse, crosses paths with Doug Clark [Williams], a charming but dangerously unstable man. Drawn into his web of deceit and depravity, Carol’s quiet existence spirals into a nightmare she never imagined.”
