Bitch Ass is now available on selected streaming platforms.

This Halloween season watch your back, there’s a new serial killer on the block. Bitch Ass the smart and scary killer and “the first Black serial killer in a mask.”

The legendary Candyman actor Tony Todd introduces us to this threat in the opening scene of this movie. The story follows four young gang members break into a house seeking reward, but are punished by Bitch Ass. They are forced to play games in desperation and the challenges are creepy twists on children’s games. If they win they survive, but if they win they die.

This movie stars Tony Todd, Sheaun McKinney, Tunde Laleye, Me’Lisa Sellers, Teon Kelly and more. The Knockturnal recently interviewed Tunde and Me’Lisa about their experience filming this movie. Tunde Laleye shared the process of internalizing and developing this new villain. Me’Lisa Sellers talked about creating this powerful and empathetic character that she’s excited to share on screen.

We talked with director Bill Posey about the inception and creation of this film. He told us about the contrast of the dark themes with religious undertones. His influences of watching movies when he was young, growing up in Massachusetts and attending Catholic school all inspired him as he created this movie. Posey shared what it was like booking Tony Todd and having him work on set. They only had one day to film Tony’s scenes and that day of filming was powerful.

Now available to watch on Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Redbox, Vudu and more. Be sure to watch this movie this Halloween season and watch your back for the serial killer Bitch Ass.
