THE SYNOPSIS:

 

MALCOLM CRIST (18) isn’t your typical high school student. Standing nearly seven feet tall, always cloaked in black, and carrying the shadow of his family name, he looks like he stepped straight out of a slasher film. He’s the son and grandson of two infamous serial killers and raised under the watchful, bloodthirsty eye of his grandmother, who’s determined he’ll carry on their legacy. But beneath the creepy exterior beats the heart of a gentle soul who couldn’t hurt a fly. What Malcolm wants isn’t violence or fame... it’s connection, someone to see him as more than a monster.

 

Across the hall is EMMA (18), the school’s reigning queen of social media... a master of filters, followers, and flawless façades. Her world is all pastel pink and polished perfection, built on likes and validation. When Malcolm unexpectedly saves her from her aggressive boyfriend, a single selfie of them together explodes online. Suddenly, the “creepy kid” becomes a viral sensation, and Emma—ever the opportunist—launches a new web series called “Creep-to-Chic,” where she takes Malcolm from freaky to fabulous.

 

What begins as a calculated stunt quickly spirals into something deeper. Beneath the ring lights and curated chaos, Emma discovers a sincerity she’s never known, and Malcolm feels seen for the first time in his life. Their unlikely connection becomes both absurdly funny and disarmingly real... a love story born from irony that blossoms into empathy.

 

As their fame grows and the pressure mounts, the line between performance and authenticity blurs. CREEPY AF becomes a reflection of its own title: a darkly comic, oddly tender look at how fear and fascination intertwine in the age of social media.

 

Part gothic romance, part dark comedy, CREEPY AF reimagines the slasher myth through the lens of young love. It’s a story about identity, image, and the courage to love what everyone else runs from. It's a modern fairy tale where horror meets heart, and even monsters can go viral.
