Based on the comic from Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray with art by Giancarlo Caracuzzo and Paul Mounts, Random Acts of Violence had its world premiere at Fantastic Fest taking place in Austin, Texas.

The film stars Jay Baruchel and Jesse Williams and costars Jordana Brewster.

In the film:

Todd Walkley (Williams) and his publisher Ezra (Baruchel) made their careers crafting a comic book based on a real-life serial killer called Slasherman. On a press tour to announce the launch of their final issue, they visit the town where Slasherman wreaked havoc twenty years earlier. Upon their arrival, a series of new murders unfold… murders that look eerily familiar to imagery in Todd’s Slasherman comics. Speculation and paranoia build regarding the identity of the mysterious killer.
