Film Overview

Gayle is a self-described true crime aficionado, and she has managed to find the one guy who doesn’t see it as a major red flag. Her boyfriend Cameron even throws her a surprise birthday party where all her friends dress up as infamous killers, victims and talking heads.

But when her dreamboat slips out in the middle of the night, Gayle’s favorite pastime faces off with her lifelong quest: true crime vs true love. Can she have both?
