Lowball

A serial killer thriller about how pursuing fame can become a fight for survival. In the late 1980s, former soap star Josh Hamlin's obsession with landing a role leads him to one of Baltimore's most infamous dive bars. As he tries to get a role in what will soon be the biggest film to come out of Baltimore of the decade, he's oblivious to the chilling reality that two serial killers are lurking in his inner circle. Based on actual events, Josh's desperation for fame becomes a fight for survival as he navigates a dangerous world of twisted desires and deadly secrets.

Directed by Steven Gillilan, Lowball leans on a strong ensemble — Corbin Ford, Johnny Alonso, Carson Jean Holley — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 0.
