As debuted on Slash Film… Dead & Beautiful Clip: A Unique Vampire Movie Heads To Shudder [Exclusive]

Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium streaming service for horror, thriller and the supernatural, will premiere vampire thriller Dead & Beautiful, written and directed by visionary filmmaker David Verbeek, Thursday, November 4 in North America, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. 

In Dead & Beautiful, five rich, spoiled Asian twenty-somethings (Gijs Blom, Aviis Zhong, Yen Tsao, Philip Juan, Anechka Marchenko) are suffering from upper-class ennui, unsure how to spend their days when so little is expected from them. In search of excitement, the five friends form the “Circle,” a group where they take turns designing a unique, extravagant experience for the others. But things go wrong when the privileged urbanites awaken after a night out, to find they have developed vampire fangs and an unquenchable thirst for flesh, blood, and adventure at any price.
