VVS Films Unveils Trailer for Thriller 'Woman of the Hour,' Directed by Anna Kendrick

VVS Films has just dropped the trailer for their highly anticipated thriller, Woman of the Hour, marking the feature directorial debut of acclaimed actress Anna Kendrick. The film boasts a star-studded cast, including Kendrick herself, along with Daniel Zovatto, Nicolette Robinson, Tony Hale, Kathryn Gallagher, and Kelley Jakle.

Set against the backdrop of the 1970s, Woman of the Hour delves into the chilling real-life story of Rodney Alcala, a notorious serial killer who preyed on women under the guise of a photographer seeking models. Despite being a registered sex offender recently released from prison, Alcala infamously appeared on the popular game show The Dating Game, where he was introduced to a bachelorette as one of three bachelors competing for her attention. This unsettling appearance, juxtaposed with his heinous crimes, forms the central narrative of the film.

The trailer hints at a gripping exploration of Alcala's disturbing spree, with a screenplay penned by Ian MacAllister McDonald. The story navigates through various timelines, delving into Alcala's crimes and the disquieting arrogance of a man who maneuvered through a system that failed to apprehend him. Daniel Zovatto’s performance promises to be a standout, embodying the sinister confidence of Alcala.

As the film gears up for its release, the makers have yet to announce a specific date. The trailer offers a tantalizing glimpse into what promises to be a suspenseful and unsettling cinematic experience, as Kendrick's directorial debut explores one of history's most unsettling criminal cases.
