Tragedy Girls

In a sleepy Midwestern suburb where high‑school hallways double as stages for streaming fame, a pair of seniors turn the town’s quiet charm into a backdrop for a relentless pursuit of viral notoriety. Their world pulses with the glow of smartphones, endless comment sections, and the ever‑present promise that the next click could catapult them into internet legend. The film’s tone blends the unsettling chill of horror with a razor‑sharp satire of influencer culture, making every idle chat and filtered selfie feel like a potential clue in a larger, darker narrative.

Sadie and McKayla are bound together by a friendship forged in shared obsessions: true‑crime podcasts, midnight research, and an unquenchable hunger for recognition. Both are sharp, ambitious, and fiercely competitive, their personalities clashing and complementing in equal measure. While one dreams of turning their blog into a cultural phenomenon, the other sees every new follower as proof of superiority. Their chemistry crackles with sarcasm, loyalty, and an undercurrent of tension that hints at how far they’ll go to stay ahead of the digital crowd.

When the duo’s amateur crime‑reporting venture catches the attention of a dangerous serial killer lurking in the shadows of their town, the stakes shift from online clout to real‑world peril. The girls begin to manipulate the narrative around the killer, hoping to turn tragedy into a spectacle that will cement their place at the top of the social‑media food chain. This uneasy alliance sets the stage for a high‑octane blend of horror and dark comedy, where the line between seeker and creator blurs, and every decision feels like a tweet that could either earn them fame—or destroy everything they hold dear.
