**US Premiere: Fantastic Fest in 2009 **
“One of the smartest teen horrors I’ve watched in some time” Indiewire
“Audacious. Unsettling.” - Hollywood Reporter
Daringly original and genre-busting, DEADGIRL is an odyssey into the soul of our alienated youth that takes the conventions of the horror and coming-of-age movies and turns them on their heads.
When high school misfits Rickie and JT decide to ditch school and find themselves lost in the crumbling facility of a nearby abandoned hospital, they come face-to-face with a gruesome discovery: a body of a woman – stripped naked, chained to a table and covered in plastic – and soon realize she is anything but dead. Quickly the boys find themselves embarking on a twisted yet poignant journey testing the limits of their friendship, and forces both to decide just how far they’re willing to stretch their understanding of right and wrong.
