The AMC-owned horror streamer pounced on the film ahead of its world premiere at SXSW over the weekend, where it impressed critics with its sense of humour and performances - it has a 100 per cent rating on Rotten Tomatoes so far.
Led by 'The Bold Type' star Aisha Dee, 'Sissy' centres on Cecilia (aka Sissy), a successful social media influencer living the dream, until she runs into her ex-teenage best friend. Invited away on a bachelorette weekend, Sissy is stuck in a remote cabin with her high school bully…and a taste for revenge.
While we were away: ‘The Dry’ performed for Roadshow; three Aussie projects were selected for Sundance; NITV updated its leadership team; ‘Sissy’ kicked off in Canberra and vale Susie Maizels, esteemed casting director.
