Late night in Los Angeles gets even stranger than usual in the streamer’s upcoming screamer.

Netflix releases NIGHT TEETH globally October 20. Directed by Adam Randall from a script by Brent Dillon, it stars Jorge Lendeborg Jr., Debby Ryan, Lucy Fry, Raúl Castillo, Alfie Allen, Alexander Ludwig, Sydney Sweeney, and Megan Fox. The synopsis: “To earn some extra cash, quirky college student Benny [Lendeborg] moonlights as a chauffeur for one night. His task: drive two mysterious young women [Ryan and Fry] around Los Angeles for a night of party hopping. Taken captive by his clients’ charm, he soon learns that his passengers have their own plans for him–and an insatiable thirst for blood. As his night spins out of control, Benny is thrust into the middle of a clandestine war that pits rival tribes of vampires against the protectors of the human world, led by his brother [Castillo], who will stop at nothing to send them back into the shadows. With sunrise fast approaching, Benny is forced to choose between fear and temptation if he wants to stay alive and save the City of Angels.”
