Writer and director Michael S Rodriguez is set to premiere his latest feature, CINEFIEND, on the streaming platform The Monster Channel. The one-time event is scheduled for October 2 at 8 PM ET and will be free for viewers who download the platform.
The film follows Dara, a late-night horror hostess, and her studio crew as they begin dying in strange and peculiar ways. The deaths mirror the victims in the horror movies Dara hosts on her show. The narrative centers on whether the killer will be stopped before the entire crew is eliminated.
The cast includes Sparkle Soojian, Lisa London, Megan Laro, and Felissa Rose. The film also features Sally Kirkland, described in the announcement as one of her final roles. Rodriguez presented the project as a special Halloween treat for horror fans during the upcoming witching season.
No additional release details, such as physical media availability or subsequent streaming windows, have been announced. The premiere is strictly a one-time event on The Monster Channel. Horror Society reported the debut date and cast details in its coverage of the announcement.
