While a group of young actors rehearse a new musical about a mass murderer, a notorious psychopath escapes from a nearby asylum. But when the show’s director locks his cast in the theatre overnight, the madman is accidentally locked inside as well. Now, a killer—with acting in his blood—has gone berserk for the blood of actors (producing several scenes that EuroHorror fans worldwide consider to be the most violent of the decade). The stage is set for one unforgettable evening of shock, suspense, and unstoppable carnage.
STAGEFRIGHT marked the stunning directorial debut of Dario Argento’s protégé, Michele Soavi, and instantly sealed his reputation as the leader of Italian horror’s new generation of filmmakers.
