Jennifer\u2019s Body meets Ginger Snaps by way of \u201cBuffy the Vampire Slayer\u201d in the queer indie vampire film What\u2019s Wrong Wendy.<\/p>\n

Hell hath no fury like a girl reborn in our exclusive teaser trailer below.<\/p>\n

Wendy Day is an ordinary, perpetually-baked pizza delivery girl, the kind of stoner sweetheart who\u2019s always running late but somehow still gets invited to the afterparty. Victoria Sinclair has just returned to Sequoia Lake to care for her ailing mother, determined to keep her head down and avoid the ghosts of her teenage years.<\/p>\n

Then comes a midnight collision: a chance run-in, a one-night stand, and the rekindling of old high school crushes. But Wendy isn\u2019t the same girl Victoria remembers. She\u2019s faster now. Hungrier. Sharper. And she\u2019s not asking before she takes a bite.<\/p>\n

Spooky Madison, Alexandra Boulas, Anthony Dain, Tova Weinberger, Dana Weddle, Jace Carson, Leah Voysey (Terrifer 2), and Andrew J. Ferchland (\u201cBuffy the Vampire Slayer\u201d) star.<\/p>\n

Madison co-directs with Hell House LLC II: The Abaddon Hotel\u00a0actress Dusty Austen from a script by Madison.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s Wrong Wendy is for anyone who\u2019s ever lost something they can\u2019t replace,\u201d Madison tells Bloody Disgusting. \u201cIt\u2019s revenge on the surface, but at heart it\u2019s about love that survives the wreckage, and refuses to die. I wrote it for the queer and feral souls who were told they were too much, and for the monsters inside them that deserve to finally breathe.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWith What\u2019s Wrong Wendy, I feel like we\u2019ve made the kind of film we wished we had as queer youths growing up during the teen horror boom of late \u201990s and early \u201900s,\u201d Austen adds. \u201cWendy at its heart is one of those films, but made through a queer lens. Maybe our teenage selves had to miss out on that, but so many more looking for more queer characters, stories and heroes in the horror space now, don\u2019t have to.\u201d<\/p>\n

Produced by StreetRat Studios & FinalGhoul Films, What\u2019s Wrong Wendy is currently in post-production. It\u2019s aiming to hit the festival circuit early next year ahead of a Fall 2026 release.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
