0:00It's March 25th. You're listening to Entertainment and celebrity news today, AI-powered pop culture updates. I'm Corey with the story. The New Horror comedy they will kill you hits theaters this Friday, starring Zazi Beats as a tough woman named Asia Reeves. She heads to a fancy old New York City building, called The Virgil, to find her long-lost sister, who's working as a maid for a group of Satanists. The film runs 94 minutes and earns an R rating for strong, bloody violence, gore, language, and brief sexual content. Director Kareel Sakhalov drew inspiration from Dante's Inferno, picturing the building's floors as homes for deadly sins like lust and gluttony. He mixes in black's poitation vibes and over-the-top action styles with plenty of slow-motion fights, exploding wounds, and undead enemies who keep coming back. It steals the show as a cleaver-swinging fighter, taking on cloaked cult members in brutal close combat. The cast features strong turns for Mihala as the sister, Tom Felton, and Heather Graham

Manager, though her Irish accent waivers, critics note the movie's can't be gore and chases, including a fiery axe battle, but say it lacks real ambition and fumbles the bizarre ending with the... Devil himself. It aims for the wild satire and bloodshed of films like Ready or Not, but doesn't quite land the blend. If you're into beat downs and a charismatic lead, this one delivers some thrills amid the mess, making it a quick watch for genre fans this weekend.
