Heads Will Roll

View allSynopsis
Camp Castaway, an adults-only retreat camp, seems like the perfect place for sitcom star Willow to escape the unwanted attention she’s getting after an ill-judged post online. Gathered around the fire at night, the campers decide to narrate ghost stories, but one of these stories turns out to be more real than expected. An evocative and nostalgic slasher, with a very modern message about social media and cancel culture.
Synopsis
Willow is in need of an escape.
A former sitcom star, she’s been publicly shamed on the internet after posting something she really shouldn’t have.
She checks in to Camp Castaway, an adults-only retreat based at an old campground in the woods.
It’s the first night and the campers gather round the fire and decide to tell some ghost stories. That’s when Willow hears the tale of Knock Knock Nancy. A local urban legend about a witch, brutally beheaded in this very woodland.
They say her restless spirit knocks on doors late at night. If you answer, she’ll take your head.
Willow doesn’t believe in ghosts, after all, they’re just stories. But the next day, a camper has vanished under mysterious circumstances. And then that evening, in her cabin, Willow hears it…
Knock, Knock, Knock.
