James Earl Jones (January 17, 1931 – September 9, 2024) was an American actor. He was described as "one of America's most distinguished and versatile" actors for his performances on stage and screen, and "one of the greatest actors in American history". Over his career, he received three Tony Awards, two Emmy Awards, and a Grammy Award. He was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame in 1985. He was honored with the National Medal of Arts in 1992, the Kennedy Center Honor in 2002, the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award in 2009 and the Honorary Academy Award in 2011. His deep voice has been praised as a "stirring basso profondo that has lent gravel and gravitas" to his projects.

In a small California town during the neon-soaked 1980s, a masked killer emerges with a twisted obsession: horror movies. When a group of teenagers becomes targets, they must navigate a deadly game where knowledge of slasher films might be their only survival tool. A resourceful final girl, her skeptical boyfriend, and a sharp-witted best friend race to unmask the killer before the body count rises. As paranoia spreads through their community, they discover the killer's motives run deeper than simple murder—rooted in personal betrayal and cinematic revenge. With synth-heavy tension, practical gore effects, and a killer who calls his victims to taunt them, this film deconstructs 80s horror tropes while becoming one itself. The mystery deepens as suspects multiply and trust crumbles, leading to a shocking revelation that redefines everything they thought they knew about their town's dark secrets.
