A trailer has dropped for A Thousand Cuts, and it looks like someone took a true crime special, spiked it with dark comedy, and then locked it in a room with a couple whose relationship is already hanging by a thread. Spoiler: the thread does not survive.

Written and directed by Jake Horowitz, the film kicks off during a live broadcast where hosts Roberta and Frasier decide it’s a great idea (historically, a terrible idea) to reopen a 30-year-old murder involving a horror novelist and his missing son. Because nothing says good content like poking a cold case with a stick live on air while your personal life is quietly collapsing in the background.

What follows is a spiral into chaos: bizarre witnesses, buried secrets, and twists that keep stacking up like bodies at a crime scene buffet. And as the mystery deepens, so does the tension between the hosts, turning the whole thing into a double feature of ‘whodunit’ and ‘are these two about to emotionally (or possibly literally) destroy each other?’

The cast is stacked with familiar genre faces, including Jonas Chernick (Fargo), David Hewlett (The Shape of Water), and Julian Richings (Urban Legend), all circling this increasingly unhinged circus of clues and consequences.

Landing on VOD March 26 via Persimmon, A Thousand Cuts looks like the kind of film where the mystery isn’t just who did it, it’s who’s going to crack first.
