Culture shock is especially shocking in the movie that could be described as BACK TO THE FUTURE meets SCREAM.
Prime Video will debut the Blumhouse Television production TOTALLY KILLER exclusively on October 6. Directed by Nahnatchka Khan and written by David Matalon, Sasha Perl-Raver and Jen D’Angelo, it stars Kiernan Shipka (THE BLACKCOAT’S DAUGHTER), Olivia Holt, Charlie Gillespie, Lochlyn Munro, Troy Leigh-Anne Johnson, Liana Liberato, Kelcey Mawema, Stephi Chin-Salvo, Anna Diaz, Ella Choi, Jeremy Monn-Djasgnar, Nathaniel Appiah, Jonathan Potts, Randall Park and Julie Bowen. The synopsis: “Thirty-five years after the shocking murder of three teens, the infamous ‘Sweet Sixteen Killer’ returns on Halloween night to claim a fourth victim. Seventeen-year-old Jamie [Shipka] ignores her overprotective mom’s [Bowen] warning and comes face-to-face with the masked maniac and, on the run for her life, accidentally time travels back to 1987, the year of the original killings. Forced to navigate the unfamiliar and outrageous culture of the 1980s, Jamie teams up with her teen mom [Holt] to take down the killer once and for all, before she’s stuck in the past forever.”
