Eli Roth and The Horror Section Acquire ‘Stiletto’

by Thomas Tuna

The Horror Section, Eli Roth’s media company, has acquired Stiletto, a new slasher pic starring Gigi Gustin, according to a report on Deadline.

The official synopsis of the film reads “On the one-year anniversary of the brutal murder of an exotic dancer, a serial killer with a specific kink is “afoot,” stalking and slaughtering his favorite performers to feed his perverse collection of pumps. “

The film will also feature Charlotte McKinney (Fantasy Island, Baywatch), Colleen Camp (Clue, Euphoria), Meghan Carrasquillo (Lookout, Four.), Stephen Blackehart (Superman, Guardians of the Galaxy franchise), Hannah Hueston (The Anacondas), and Pancho Moler (31, 3 From Hell).

“Of all the horror sub-genres, there’s none more beloved than the slasher, and also the hardest to create something that feels original and genre-defining,” said Roth. “Drawing from her own personal experience as an exotic dancer, Gigi Gustin and Samuel Gonzalez Jr. have turned real life horror into one of the most fun, original and exciting slasher films I have ever seen.  Gigi’s performance, both in front of and behind the camera as the creator and producer, has announced one of the most exciting new talents in horror. Her performance is remarkable, and under the inspired direction of Samuel, an equally exciting new talent, they have created a new masked killer that harkens back to the classics and carves in new creative ways I have never seen before.  Stiletto delivers the goods on every level, I cannot wait for audiences to discover this on the big screen in theaters this Halloween.”

The film is slated to arrive in select theaters on October 30. Stay tuned to Horror News Network for more on Stiletto.
