Last Updated on August 2, 2021

The Horror Collective recently acquired the rights to the horror thriller ROT, and now they have released the film through Amazon Prime Video. The film is available at THIS LINK, so check out the trailer embedded above to see if ROT looks like something you'd want to watch this weekend.

The feature debut of writer/director Andrew Merrill, ROT has the following synopsis: 

When Madison’s ex goes missing, his friends expect her to lead the search to find him. But something vile has taken over his body, and what they find is worse than any of them could have imagined. 

Here's another synopsis: 

A grad student breaks up with her boyfriend to focus on her thesis, not realizing something has infected him and that he's going to wreak havoc on her life.

Kris Alexandrea, Johnny Kostrey, McKale Jude Bingham, Adam Burch, Daniel Amerman, and Eileen Dietz star. The film was produced by Beth Crudele.

ROT looks creepy, weird, and gross… which means I'm interested in checking it out.
