Tubi has revealed first-look photos and a premiere date for Buzzkill, the upcoming horror-comedy film starring Siena Agudong, Brec Bassinger and Aliyah’s Interlude.
Per the official description, “When a group of sorority sisters find themselves trapped with a vengeful killer, party-girl Nora (Agudong) knows that the drunker she gets, the more her tipsy memories start revealing clues about who’s murdering her friends. But she’d better hurry, or her next vodka soda might be her last call.”
Suzanne Keilly wrote the script, with Jem Garrard directing. The film brings Agudong back to Tubi, where she stars in the streamer’s Sidelined film series with Noah Beck
Garrard said, “I loved Suzanne’s script and was excited by her spin on the slasher genre. Nora isn’t your traditional final girl, she screws up constantly and is spectacularly ill-equipped for what’s happening around her, but we never stop rooting for her. Siena has incredible comic instincts and brings so much heart to Nora. I couldn’t have asked for a better ensemble, everyone brought such a distinct energy to their character and I’m excited for audiences to meet this lovable, dysfunctional sorority. There’s something liberating about making a movie whose primary goal is to entertain the hell out of an audience. Buzzkill is unapologetically fun and ridiculous. Horror-comedy is such a great communal genre, and Buzzkill really embraces that. It’s a movie to watch with friends, and I hope audiences have as much fun watching the chaos unfold as we had making it.”
Agudong said, “When I first met with our director, Jem Garrard, to talk about Buzzkill, they gave me a watchlist full of horror classics and told me to get familiar with the genre tropes…because we planned to push the limits of each one. So on the day, we were all given so much freedom to play, and that was the most exciting part. Every day, it felt like we were coming to set just to make a movie that would make us giggle, and now having the film come out, it feels like we are reliving our inside jokes but with a much larger group of friends.”
