Director Illya Konstantin‘s explosive feature debut, Night of Violence, will world premiere as the opening night film of FrightFest 2025 on August 21. A ferocious blend of workplace thriller and social satire, the film takes aim at corporate greed and the opioid crisis with unflinching violence and dark humor.
🎬 THE STORY
After a pharmaceutical giant celebrates the launch of Azlepta—their controversial new opioid—their corporate party turns into a bloody siege. Masked vigilantes, disguised as caterers, storm the office tower, forcing employees into a nightmare of survival. Trapped with no escape, the survivors must fight back or become collateral damage in a war against corporate exploitation.
