00:18In Skillhouse, a group of influencers wake up in a gorgeous mansion, only to discover
00:23they're actually trapped in a deranged popularity contest.
00:26Each competitor must do whatever it takes to gain as many views as possible, and whoever
00:30has the lowest number at the end of each round dies.
00:33The slasher is a critique of our current obsession with social media and everyone's desire to
00:37become an influencer.
00:38You could say it makes an, um, cutting statement about how far people are willing to go for
00:42likes, double taps, followers, and internet fame.
00:46Skillhouse made headlines back in July because of how graphic its kill scenes are.
00:50According to those on set, a cameraman actually passed out during shooting.
00:54When it happened, it was nighttime, dimly lit, and we were in the middle of filming
00:57a frightening scene that involved a lot of blood, he said.
01:01One of our camera operators literally dropped and passed out.
01:03The camera broke, an on-set medic came and tended to him, and we broke for almost an
01:08hour.
01:09Joining 50 Cent in the cast are influencer Bryce Hall, UFC fighter Paige Van Zant, actress
01:13and influencer Hannah Stocking, and actor Neil McDonough.
