Alberta Premiere

Shot and produced in Alberta, Lowell Dean's (SUPERGRID, CIFF2018) much-anticipated horror film is fresh off its World Premiere at the Fantasia International Film Festival.

Wrestler 'Miss Behave' (Ayshia Issa) is an ill-tempered beast in the ring and far from satisfied with her status in her independent wrestling league. Miss is tired of playing the heel, pandering to abusive fans, and being overlooked by the "big show." Needing the job, Miss hesitantly agrees to participate in a non-televised "dark match" roadshow in the middle of nowhere. When she and her fellow wrestlers reach the creepy destination, they realize too late that small-town Satanists have lured them into a kill-or-be-killed event that's part gladiator match, part ritual sacrifice.
