Private Project

Cheater, Cheater

A mysterious serial killer has violently claimed the lives of five random residents in the small town of Yakima, Washington. Then all goes silent. Five years later, a former resident, Joseph Givens, returns after trying to better himself, and shake the demons that consumed his teenage years. And almost like a trigger, his return sparks a new series of brutal crimes. Joseph is being stalked and the people around him are being hunted by a madman wearing a tattered pumpkin mask and wielding a sharp knife. Inspired by the great slasher movies of the 80's and 90's, CHEATER, CHEATER delivers a suspenseful and thrilling mystery that will keep you guessing until its surprising conclusion.
