Shudder, AMC Networks’ streaming service for horror, thriller, and the supernatural, and RLJE Films have announced they’ve partnered on the newest Shudder Original Film, “Destroy All Neighbors.” From music-video and commercial director Josh Forbes and starring Jonah Ray Rodrigues (“Mystery Science Theater 3000”) and Alex Winter (Bill and Ted franchise), who also produce “Destroy All Neighbors,” will have a day-and-date release in theaters and on Shudder in 2023.
From an original script written by Mike Benner, Jared Logan, and Charles Pieper, “Destroy All Neighbors” tells the story of struggling prog-rock musician William Brown (Rodrigues), who finds himself in a living nightmare when he accidentally kills Vlad (Winter), the neighbor from hell. Vlad’s disembodied corpse delights in tormenting William, sending him further into madness and impending doom.
“We’re so excited for Josh, Jonah, and Alex to bring this hilariously dark take on ‘the neighbor from hell’ to our members,’” said Shudder general manager Craig Engler. “Giving this tentpole feature as big of a launchpad as possible with our partners at RLJE Films is sure to get the whole ‘neighborhood’ talking.”
Casting for the film is currently underway, and production is set to commence in July.
