The Passenger
Don't sit next to her
Directed by Fernando González Gómez, Raúl Cerezo
Produced by Persons Films, La Dalia Films
A darkly comedic sci-fi horror film about ordinary people trapped with an alien parasite in a confined space, balancing grotesque body horror with genre-aware humor.
Four people traveling in a van run over a lone woman while she is walking in the dark down a country road. After loading her into the vehicle to take her to the nearest hospital, they notice that she is behaving rather strangely. The occupants of the van soon realise that the time has come to fight for their lives, and together they agree on one very simple rule: "do not sit next to her."
