Just in time for Valentine's Day, HBO Max is serving up a unique blend of romance, comedy, and horror with Caroline Lindy's 'Your Monster'. Melissa Barrera plays Laura, an aspiring actress facing a double blow: a cancer diagnosis and a recent breakup. Finding solace in her childhood home, Laura encounters a monster residing in her closet. As she befriends the hairy creature, Laura learns to channel her anger and rediscover her strength. The film boasts a talented ensemble cast including Tommy Dewey, Edmund Donovan, Kayla Foster, and Meghann Fahy.
Since the first of the year, HBO has been welcoming a handful of new movies to its expansive catalog. Along with titles like the Brandy Norwood-starrer, The Front Room, and the Academy Award-nominated, Sebastian Stan-fronted A Different Man, a completely different style is about to lovingly scare its way onto the platform. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, audiences are invited to scream, cry and laugh at Caroline Lindy’s Your Monster.
Joining Barrera in the cast of Lindy’s production is a lineup that includes Tommy Dewey as the Monster, Edmund Donovan as Laura’s ex-boyfriend, Jacob Sullivan, Kayla Foster as Laura’s friend, Mazie, and Meghann Fahy as an actress named Jackie Dennon. Barrera admitted that she was worried her career was over after the end of her run with Scream, but really, she was just beginning. In 2024, she continued to fortify her scream queen status with not just Your Monster but also Abigail, which came from the helmers of Scream and Scream VI, Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett. Next on the big screen, she’ll be seen in the biographical drama, The Collaboration, and has her sights set on leaving her mark in Hollywood.
