Director Austin Vesely takes a bite out of the horror genre for his first feature film. Backed by studio A24, the slasher stars Chance the Rapper and Deadpool 2's Zazie Beetz as a pair of delivery drivers who work for "a pretty shitty pizza place" that just happens to be built on a gateway to Hell. When their fellow drivers start getting sliced up, the two attempt to track down the culprit who may, or may not, be a werewolf. The film also stars some other familiar faces like Stranger Things's Joe Keery, Will Brill from The OA, and Paul Scheer as well as some pretty gnarly ghosts.
