Melissa Barrera (Scream, In the Heights, Abigail) stars in Caroline Lindy’s hilarious and charming romantic-comedy-horror Your Monster, a modern day, feminist fairytale set in the world of musical theater.
After battling an illness and being dumped by the love of her life, struggling actress Laura Franco (Melissa Barrera) returns to her childhood home to recover. But to her horror, she discovers a monster (Tommy Dewey) living in her bedroom closet. Turns out he’s quite the charmer.
Over time, they forge an unlikely connection as Monster helps Laura stand up to her narcissistic ex and fight for the lead role in his show that was promised to her. Laura and Monster’s relationship slowly grows into something more as she rediscovers her power and learns to unleash her long-suppressed rage.
Directed by Caroline Lindy, Your Monster stars Melissa Barrera, Meghann Fahy (The White Lotus), Tommy Dewey (Saturday Night), Edmund Donovan (Civil War) and Kayla Foster (Call Jane).
Your Monster is in UK and Ireland cinemas 29 November from Vertigo Releasing
