Dario Argento & Franco Nero Join the Cast of Interactive Horror Movie

Paul Raschid’s latest interactive movie The Run has added some genre heavyweights. Iconic filmmaker Dario Argento and cult actor Franco Nero join the horror thriller.

Fittingly shot in Northern Italy, The Run is set on a remote running trail. Its story follows a famous fitness influencer who is hunted by a selection of mysterious would-be killers. The project’s interactive nature means viewers can choose who lives and dies.
