Outcast Sisters Compete for Bridesmaid Spots in Deadly 'Making a Bridesmaid' Comedy

In November 2025, the indie horror comedy "Making a Bridesmaid" has wrapped post-production and is now targeting a 2026 festival run. The film, written and directed by Molly Ratermann, who also produces and stars, follows two outcast sisters as they embark on a "basic bitch" bachelorette weekend. However, the fun quickly turns deadly as the sisters find themselves in a real-life murder game, forced to compete for bridesmaid spots just to stay alive.

Tonally billed as "Bodies Bodies Bodies" meets "Bridesmaids," the film satirizes the pressure women feel to compete when opportunities are scarce. Ratermann hopes it will "spark curiosity in men about the layers of female socialization, while giving women a chance to laugh -- and maybe squirm a little -- in recognition of their own experiences."

The ensemble cast includes rising talents like Emily Kincaid, Serra Naiman, Wilder Yari, and Gina Su. American Cinema Editors (ACE) President Sabrina Plisco heads up the creative team as editor, marking her debut as a producer as well. With its pastel-neon textures, synth-pop pulse, and a focus on female identity and rivalry, "Making a Bridesmaid" promises to be a wild, fun ride for audiences in 2026.
