MTV Gets Scary With Psycho Sweet 16 Movie

MTV’s taking a gander at the horror genre with a new original TV movie that’s putting a scary twist on a sweet sixteen story. My Super Psycho Sweet 16 is set to premiere later this month, just in time for Halloween!

While the film seems to have borrowed most of its title from MTV’s reality series about the spoiled, rich girls who get the party of their dreams, this MTV original movie looks more like a nightmare for the birthday girl.

Below is MTV’s synopsis for the movie:

“My Super Psycho Sweet 16 marks the first premiere from the new slate of original movies produced by MTV and is the network's first foray into the horror genre. The film tells the story of Madison Penrose (Juliana Guill), a spoiled and beautiful high school queen bee, and Skye Rotter (Lauren McKnight), the class outcast whose father Charlie Rotter committed a series of grisly murders a decade before the movie’s events. Madison’s plans for the ultimate birthday bash are ruined when Skye shows up to get closer to Madison’s ex-boyfriend Brigg (Chris Zylka), but things get really psycho when Charlie returns to crash the party too. My Super Psycho Sweet 16 offers the perfect blend of teen drama, sly humor, horrific thrills and eye-popping special effects.”

My Super Psycho Sweet 16 will air on October 23rd at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.
