Just in time for Valentine’s Day, a first look at a movie about very bad love.

Magnet Releasing will bring BORDERLINE to theaters and digital platforms March 14. It’s the directorial debut of COCAINE BEAR writer Jimmy Warden, who also scripted, and stars Samara Weaving (READY OR NOT), Ray Nicholson (SMILE 2), Eric Dane, Alba Batista and Jimmie Fails (LAST BLACK MAN IN SAN FRANCISCO). The synopsis: “BORDERLINE is an edge-of-your-seat thriller that follows a dangerously persistent stalker [Nicholson] who invades the home of a ’90s pop superstar [Weaving] with grand delusions of a wedding. With her life on the line and help from her loyal bodyguard, she must escape the stalker’s sinister grip before they tie the knot.”
“It was an absolute pleasure to make this movie with such an extraordinary team of actors, crew, and producers,” Warden says. “Across the board–from the executives at Magnet, PMI, and Radiant to the background actors who agreed to stay late as we doused an 11-year-old in fake blood–I’m indebted to them all. The film is wild and I can’t wait for the world to see it.”
