NSFW Trailer: Larry Wade Carrell and Society writer team for Girl Next

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

In 1989 and 1990, screenwriter Woody Keith helped director Brian Yuzna craft the cult favorites SOCIETY, BRIDE OF RE-ANIMATOR, and SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT 4. Keith went on to direct a couple films himself before the '90s were over, then he seemed to disappear. After a couple decade hiatus, Keith has returned – but he's not Woody Keith anymore. Under the name Zeph E. Daniel, he has written the upcoming horror film GIRL NEXT.

Directed by Larry Wade Carrell, whose previous films include SHE RISES and 2011's JACOB, GIRL NEXT has the following synopsis: 

Lorian West is perfect. She’s young, upscale, connected, the right school, the right politics, the classic blonde, blue-eyed American beauty. Unknown to Lorian, though, she’s been targeted for abduction. She’s drugged and taken to a remote rundown ranch where international traffickers not only deliver women for sex, but change them into obedient, beautiful yet placid and willing-to-please sex dolls. They also kill the ones who resist the program. 

‘Sofia’ is the newest model from Heinrich, a scientist whose genius is using trauma-based mind-control techniques along with other hideous extremes of physical and mental torture to create the perfect doll. Heinrich thinks Lorian is actually the next breakthrough model and is excited to raise the price of delivery. 

Enter a shady sheriff who supplies Heinrich with a drug that eventually takes him into madness. The sheriff gets the call from someone up the food chain to stop the operation and shut it down. It is now a failure and the order is given to kill Lorian. But Lorian has other plans — ones that involve retaliation.

Daniel also produced the film with Loris Curci. Lacey Cofran, Marcus Jean Pirae, Paula Mercenaro, and Rachel Alig star.

GIRL NEXT is currently in post-production and aiming for a summer release. A NSFW teaser trailer has been released online and can be seen below, along with a poster for the film.

The chance to see a new film from the co-writer of SOCIETY, BRIDE OF RE-ANIMATOR, and SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT 4 has me sold on checking out GIRL NEXT. We'll let you know when there's distribution news.
