Dead & Beautiful trailer: Five rich Millennials turn into vampires in Shudder’s new horror-thriller

As Good Charlotte vented nearly 20 years ago, the rich are “always complainin’,” a trend that continues in Dead & Beautiful, a new horror-thriller out on Shudder this week.

Dead & Beautiful centers on a group of five exceedingly wealthy and restless Asian Millennials (Gijs Blom, Aviis Zhong, Yen Tsao, Philip Juan, Anechka Marchenko) who form a boundary-pushing group to entertain themselves. As part of the “Circle,” each member has a turn to plan an extravagant activity for the group to participate in to shake them out of their pampered boredom. After one particularly wild night out, they wake up with fangs and an unquenchable thirst for human blood, which ignites a life-and-death scenario unlike anything they’ve experienced before.

Set in Taipei and directed by Dutch director David Verbeek (Full Contact), Dead & Beautiful is a unique twist on the vampire mythos that also plays as a satire on the privilege and unchecked power of the uber-rich.

Check out the trailer and poster below. Dead & Beautiful sinks its fangs into Shudder as of November 5. Find more Shudder recommendations here.
