Exclusive “KILLER CONTENT” trailer has things going very bad for an influencer

It’s MISERY meets SINGLE WHITE FEMALE for the social-media age.

Strike Back Studios releases KILLER CONTENT to VOD and digital platforms September 16. Written and directed by Chris St. Croix, it stars Katie Keene, Casey Casmira, Diego Gomez, Nathan Freitas, Kyle Rankin and Patrick Sharn. The synopsis: “After surviving a near-death encounter with a stalker, rising social media influencer Jexy Diamond [Keene] retreats to her childhood cabin to recover and plan her return to the spotlight. But when a superfan [Casmira] with dreams of Internet stardom tracks her down and takes her hostage, her biggest fan is about to find out there’s more to her idol than meets the eye.”

“I’m thrilled to be partnering with Strike Back Studios for the release of KILLER CONTENT,” says St. Croix. “Strike Back’s passion for bold, independent stories makes them the perfect home for this film, and I can’t wait for audiences to experience the suspense we’ve built.”
