Written by Ian MacAllister McDonald, the film is based on the true story of Rodney Alcala, a convicted serial killer who made a chilling appearance on The Dating Game TV show in 1978, during the time period when he committed his crimes.

The teaser shows Kendrick on a date with a man who is initially charming, but it is too late when she realises that he is not whom she thinks he is.
