In the digital town, a new coming-of-age series is set to debut, promising a thrilling blend of '90s teen movies and erotic thrillers. Titled 'The Body,' the eight-episode series is the brainchild of 30-year-old writer-director Quinn Shepard.
The story follows a group of badly behaved Catholic school girls who, after a dance-team initiation goes wrong, begin experiencing prophetic visions that set off mass hysteria in their town. Shepard, who drew inspiration from films like 'Mean Girls,' 'Jennifer's Body,' 'Heavenly Creatures,' and 'Carrie,' aims to deliver a "raunchy teen drama with a dash of Catholic horror" through a grounded lens.
The series boasts a talented ensemble cast, including Kristina Bogic, Sara Boustany, Geena Meszaros, Nnamdi Asomugha, Louisa Krause, Shirley Chen, Jackson Kelly, and Sofia Wylie, among others. With multiple cliffhangers and spooky undertones, Shepard hopes 'The Body' will become a must-watch for fans of popcorn and slumber party-worthy entertainment.
