Hysteria!
Hysteria! kicks off when a beloved varsity quarterback disappears during the “Satanic Panic” of the late 1980s, and a struggling high school heavy metal band of outcasts realises they can capitalise on the town’s sudden interest in the occult by building a reputation as a Satanic metal band. But a bizarre series of murders, kidnappings, and reported “supernatural activity” triggers a leather-studded witch hunt that soon leads directly back to them.
The coming-of-age thriller stars Emjay Anthony, Kezii Curtis and Critics Choice nominee Chiara Aurelia (Cruel Summer) as the band members, supported by the likes of Fangoria Chainsaw nominee Milly Shapiro (Hereditary), Emmy winner Julie Bowen (Modern Family), MTV Movie Award winner Anna Camp (Pitch Perfect, True Blood), and Critics Choice nominee Garret Dillahunt (The Dead Don’t Hurt), with horror legend Bruce Campbell (Ash in the Evil Dead franchise) as the local chief of police.
Hysteria! has an 86% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with AVClub calling it “a devil of a good time”.
