The story

Stuck in the loop of a horror B-movie, a hyper-sexualized black female character decides to reject her fate and rebel against the script. Along with her boyfriend, token black guy who always dies first, they throw the entire movie off course.

They try to outwit the serial killer and escape in order to break free… but the film has other plans.
