Halloween Horror Rom Com ‘Your Monster’ Streaming Debut Set on Max
Your Monster is a romantic comedy with a horror edge as sharp as a blade (or a broken ruler), with a never-better Melissa Barrera falling in love with her inner monster, set mostly around Halloween, and it will be available to stream exclusively on Max this month, ahead of Valentine’s Day.
Here’s the full synopsis: Your Monster tells the story of the soft-spoken actor Laura Franco (Melissa Barrera), who is dumped by her longtime boyfriend (Edmund Donovan) while recovering from surgery and retreats to her childhood home to recover. With her future looking bleak, insult is added to injury when Laura discovers her ex is staging a musical that she helped him develop. But out of these gut-wrenching life changes emerges a monster (Tommy Dewey) with whom she finds a connection, encouraging Laura to follow her dreams, open her heart and fall in love with her inner rage.
The film is written and directed by Caroline Lindy, starring Melissa Barrera (Scream, Scream VI, Abigail), Tommy Dewey, Edmund Donovan, Kayla Foster, Meghann Fahy, Brandon Victor Dixon, Ike Ufomadu, and Lana Young.
Your Monster will make its global streaming debut Friday, January 24 exclusively on Max, before debuting on HBO linear on Saturday, January 25 at 8:00 p.m. ET.
