Trailer For The Crazy Social Media-Inspired Thriller INFLUENCER
Shudder has released a trailer for a great new social media-inspired horror thriller titled Influencer, which comes from Spiral director, Kurtis David Harder. I actually already had the opportunity to watch the movie, and it’s a solid film worth checking out!
“Influencer tells the story of Madison (Emily Tennant), “a popular social media influencer who is having a lonely and uneventful trip in Thailand despite what she tells her followers on Instagram. While reflecting on her boyfriend canceling the trip, she meets CW (Cassandra Naud), a fearless and enigmatic traveler who offers to take her to some of the most Instagram-worthy locations. Together they share authentic meals and drinks with locals, discussing the differences between Madison’s online presence and CW’s lack of one.”
After showing Madison all of the amazing sights, “things take a different turn when CW brings her to a surprise location — a deserted island that is completely off the grid.”
As I said in my review: “It’s hard to get more in-depth with the story without spoiling anything. But, the movie did not play out the way I thought it would and I loved it for that. The story played out so much better than how I expected it was going to go. It was very inventive in the way the story unfolded.”
Influencer begins streaming on May 26, only on Shudder and AMC+. The film is definitely worth watching!
