When fiction becomes reality, the deadliest horror is the one that escapes the screen.
Aaron Scott never expected his cult horror franchise to destroy his life.
After his estranged wife is murdered in a chilling imitation of the killings from his blockbuster slasher films, Aaron becomes the prime suspect. Hounded by the media, pursued by relentless detectives, and stalked by a fan who believes he has become Aaron’s fictional monster, Aaron must uncover the truth before another victim falls.
As the body count rises, the line between cinematic fantasy and horrifying reality disappears. In a world where obsession breeds violence and everyone has a motive, Aaron races to stop a killer who is turning fiction into ritual.
Movie Rites is a gripping psychological thriller from legendary horror creator John A. Russo that explores fame, morality, media hysteria, and the terrifying consequences of obsession.

With 40 books published internationally and 19 movies in worldwide distribution, John Russo has been called "a Living Legend." He began by co-authoring the screenplay for the horror classic, Night of the Living Dead, and went on to build an iconic decades-long career.
His books on the art and craft of movie making have become bibles of independent production and have won a national award for Superior Nonfiction. Quentin Tarantino and many other noted filmmakers have stated that Russo's books have helped them launch their careers.
John Russo wants people to know he's "just a nice guy who likes to scare people" -- and he's done it with novels and films such as Return of the Living Dead, Midnight, The Majorettes, The Awakening, Heartstopper, and My Uncle John is a Zombie!
He's had a long, rewarding career, and he shows no signs of slowing down. In 2024, Lionsgate acquired a Western written by him, The Night They Came Home, about the murder spree perpetrated by the Rufus Buck gang, who were all hanged in 1895.
Russo's popularity among genre fans remains at a high pitch. He appears at many movie conventions each year as a featured guest, and hundreds of attendees come to his tables or to the bar to share drinks, jokes, and serious conversation.
