The Passenger (2023)

Randy is perfectly content fading into the background. But when his coworker Benson goes on a sudden and violent rampage leaving a trail of destruction in his wake, Randy is forced to face his fears and confront his troubled past to survive in The Passenger

From Oscar-nominated production company Blumhouse (Get Out, The Invisible Man), The Passenger is directed by Sundance winner Carter Smith (Swallowed) and has an 81% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes. 

Dread Central praises Kyle Gallner (Smile) as Benson and calls The Passenger “perhaps one of the most beautiful and heartbreaking road movies I’ve ever seen… a violent yet tender look at male friendships and breaking cycles… one of the best and most beautiful films of 2023 so far.”
