Netflix Drops Trailer for Blood Red Sky
You’ve heard of Snakes On A Plane…now, get ready for a vampire on a plane. Netflix has released the trailer for their upcoming German action-horror movie titled Blood Red Sky. Usually flight attendants ask if there’s a doctor on board when trouble arises but when there’s a group of dangerous airplane hijackers perhaps a vampire is what you need. The film follows a mother named Nadja whose secret “illness” may be the one thing that can save her and her son when they end up on a hijacked flight from Germany to New York. Things quickly take a turn once it’s revealed Nadja’s blood disorder is actually vampirism. Blood Red Sky comes to Netflix on July 23.
