We’ve got a new trailer for you to watch for Netflix’s dark true crime thriller Woman of the Hour, which stars Anna Kendrick, who also directed the movie.The movie is based on the true story of a serial killer who appeared on live TV in 1978 as a bachelor on The Dating Game. Kendrick plays aspiring actor Cheryl, who is down on her luck and struggling to meet rent.She ends up landing a gig on The Dating Game as the show’s eligible bachelorette who wins a date with a man named Rodney Alcala… who also happens to be a serial killer.The trailer features Cheryl as she grills the three male contestants. The charming and campy footage is interspersed with haunting clips of Alcala with his victims.The movie is described as a “stranger-than-fiction story of an aspiring actress in 1970s Los Angeles and a serial killer in the midst of a yearslong murder spree, whose lives intersect when they’re cast on an episode of The Dating Game.”The film’s synopsis reads: “In the 1970s Rodney Alcala went on a murder spree, luring women by posing as a photographer looking for models. “Though already a registered sex offender and recently released from prison, he infamously appeared on The Dating Game, a show that introduced a set of three bachelors each week, hidden from view as a woman asked them amusing questions before choosing a winner to go on an all-expenses-paid trip with her… “While this confrontation serves as the spine of the film, we’re taken backward and forward through time, exploring Alcala’s murders, with a performance by Daniel Zovatto that captures the disquieting hubris of a man who knows he’s operating in a world too skewed to catch him.” The movie also stars Daniel Zovatto, Nicolette Robinson, Tony Hale, Kathryn Gallagher, and Kelley Jakle. The script was written by Ian MacAllister McDonald.The movie will be released on October 18th.
