Run.Kill.Run is a 2014 horror film directed by Declan O'Neill and starring Jazmine Arroyo, Scott Wellington, Cat Rivero, Lewis Elon and Piper Monroe. The film marks Wellington's first acting role outside of his music career and it is also the second time Piper Monroe has starred alongside a member of Weekend, having worked with Riley Hamilton on "Diary Of An Escort" previously. The plot is centered around a group of friends who set out to go camping in order to have one last bonding experience as a group before Caleb (Elon) moves over to Australia to work in his father's new bar. Things take a turn for the worst when the group soon discover the surrounding area is occupied by an immortal "hellish" creature which feasts on human body parts. The film was released to a few select cinemas in the US on April 18th 2014 with a worldwide DVD release following the week after. The film has been compared to horror films of the early 2000's such as "Wrong Turn" and "Jeepers Creepers".
