‘Stiletto’: Eli Roth Label The Horror Section Boards Buzzy Slasher Featuring Gigi Gustin
Eli Roth’s The Horror Section is producing Stiletto alongside star Gigi Gustin and Hearse Productions from an original script by Samuel Gonzalez Jr. and Gustin. Gonzaelez Jr directs the exciting title that sounds neon-drenched and worth keeping tabs on.
Set on the one-year anniversary of her sister’s brutal murder, Stiletto follows Lyric (Gustin) as she seeks revenge while fighting to protect the dancer community from a masked killer targeting strip clubs. The neon-drenched slasher introduces a new killer and a fierce new final girl poised to become a genre standout.
“Gigi and Sam have made an instant classic,” said Eli Roth. “It’s original, smart, and wildly fun, with a bold reinvention of the slasher subgenre. Gigi gives an explosive performance drawn from real experience, and Sam’s direction is smart, scary, and cinematic. The finale is one of the most original final girl-versus-slasher showdowns I’ve ever seen. I can’t wait to bring this to audiences worldwide.”
“The journey of making Stiletto has been the most intense and rewarding experience of my life,” said Gigi Gustin. “Having Eli not just champion the film but become part of it feels surreal. I poured everything into this story, and with his guidance, I truly believe it can be something extraordinary.”
Stiletto marks the next release from The Horror Section, following Ice Cream Man, the first film produced under the banner. Founded by Roth in partnership with Media Capital Technologies, The Horror Section focuses on developing and releasing bold, filmmaker-driven horror across film, television, games, and experiential storytelling.
