Next Exit (2022)

Billed as a supernatural sci-fi road movie, Next Exit follows two people in a hurry to get to the afterlife. 

When a contentious study claims to have found proof of life after death, both Rose (Katie Parker, Alt) and Teddy (Rahul Kohli, iZombie) race to join the project and leave their lives behind. While Rose is haunted by a ghostly presence she can’t outrun, Teddy is struggling to confront his past. But as these two misfits humorously quarrel their way across the country, they must reckon with what is really driving each of them.  

Next Exit has an 80% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Collider calling it, “A spectacular piece of blended genre storytelling, filled to the brim with life.” The movie won Best Cinematography at the Tribeca Film Festival, where it premiered last year.
