SLASHERS APPRENTICE (2025)

Riley, a horror-obsessed podcaster with a slasher villain fixation, is seeking a new career path: Helping her favorite legendary slasher, The Hopton Valley Killer, regain their long-lost notoriety while learning the ropes herself.

When Riley doesn't give them much of a choice, the Hopton Valley Killer springs into murderous action, putting Riley to the test as she must dive knife-first into assisting with taking out an entire frat party. As HVK seems set to prove why they're one of the greats, Riley seeks to prove she's worthy to follow in their footsteps.

Riley takes center stage as Hopton Valley Killer agrees to let her plan their next spree. Will she make the cut? Or is it curtains for Riley's dream of murderous glory?

"Change is inevitable. An ending. A new beginning. Everything in between is merely an obstacle. A weed to be plucked out. Stay tuned." -- A mysterious new killer is disrupting the scene by targeting other slashers that they deem irrelevant. Will Riley and HVK be able to stay ahead of the innovation curve and stay off this new killer's radar? Or is it too late to teach this old lion some new tricks?

With /Killer's sights now aimed directly at Hopton Valley Killer, Riley must attempt to save her mentor's life and legacy from being slashed out. As the duo attempt to lay a trap of their own, they will be confronted with the pains of the past as one final showdown determines the future fate of slashing as we know it.
