Shudder Picks Up Horror ‘Influencer’ – from ‘Spiral’ Director Kurtis David Harder

The director of horror movie SpiralKurtis David Harder is back with new movie Influencer, and Deadline reports that Shudder has acquired the film for multiple territories..

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.”

Kurtis David Harder wrote the script with Tesh Guttikonda.

Shudder’s Emily Gotto says, Influencer is a thought-provoking and suspenseful exploration of the world of social media, and we are thrilled to share it with Shudder members this spring as part of an already exciting lineup of some of the best in horror filmmaking.”

Influencer will debut on Shudder in Spring 2023
