Alone at Night trailer: Ashley Benson slasher reaches theatres and VOD next month

Back in August, the erotic “pandemic slasher” Alone at Night – which was formerly known as 18 & Over – was released as a $263 NFT. Now Vertical Entertainment is set to give the film a theatrical and VOD release on January 20th, and with that date less than a month away a new trailer for Alone at Night has arrived online. You can check it out in the embed above.

Alone at Night stars Ashley Benson (Pretty Little Liars), who also produced the film and is credited with creating the project alongside writer/director Jimmy Giannopolous and co-writer Diomedes Raul Bermudez. Benson takes on the role of Vicky, a young woman looking for an escape after going through a harrowing break-up. After retreating to a friend’s remote cabin in the woods to clear her head, she continues modeling sexy lingerie for her devoted followers on 18 & Over, an adults-only, live-streaming website. But when the power keeps going out, Vicky discovers something terrifying awaiting her in the dark – a masked killer wielding a crowbar who’s hellbent on bringing her night to a grisly end.

Benson is joined in the cast by Jon Foster, Jake Weary, Sky Ferreira, Luis Guzman, Winnie Harlow, G Eazy, Duke Nicholson, A$AP Nast, John Robinson, Paris Hilton, and Pamela Anderson. G Eazy also composed the film’s score.

Alone at Night was also produced by Purpose Film’s Bermudez and Artemis Pictures’ Siena Oberman, plus Cassius Corrigan. Jamin O’Brien is executive producer.

I’m not into NFTs at all, so I’m very glad to hear that this movie is going to be receiving a wider, more traditional release after initially going the NFT route. It gives me hope that the same will happen with Kevin Smith’s NFT horror movie Killroy Was Here at some point. In the meantime, I’ll take a look at Alone at Night next month. I’m always on board to watch a movie about a masked slasher, and I appreciate the Jason Voorhees tribute with the appearance of a hockey mask in the trailer.
