The premise

An aspiring actress crosses paths with a prolific serial killer in '70s LA when they're cast on an episode of "The Dating Game."

Horror Vault's take

Set against the glittering facade of 1970s Los Angeles, a young actress chasing her Hollywood dreams finds herself unknowingly in the company of a dangerous predator when they both appear on a popular TV game show. Based on a shocking true story, the film peels back the era's casual disregard for women's safety to expose how a killer could hide in plain sight. Director Anna Kendrick crafts a slow-burn thriller that turns the spectacle of daytime television into something deeply sinister.
