When a notorious horror livestream channel attempts a comeback after a deadly on-air tragedy, the crew heads to an abandoned psychiatric hospital to create their most extreme broadcast yet.

As the cameras roll, rival streamers appear, tensions rise, and the line between performance and reality begins to disappear. Trapped inside a nightmare where every scream could mean more views, the desperate pursuit of online fame spirals into a relentless bloodbath.

Based on the 2016 novel Scare Campaign, Killing Time brings classic slasher horror into the world of livestreams, sensational content and violence packaged for online consumption.
