So when Charlotte (Sophie Dalah; Satanic) starts offering him large amounts of cash to cancel his plans and drive her around the city, and not log it in his app, he agrees. She comes running out of her first stop with a small box, and her ex in hot pursuit. But that’s just a taste of what’s to come. When they accidentally hit a pedestrian Charlotte convinces him not to call the police, she can help him get rid of the body. When the body steals the Porche and drives off into the night, that’s when it really gets weird.

Emerson Graham’s nights as a cab driver are filled with annoyances and inconveniences, but until tonight, never attacks and disappearances. After picking up manic Roger, a mysterious passenger out to break an ancient curse his family began generations ago with poorly translated spells and busted talismans, her evening goes from working a job to performing a terrifying quest as they must race against the clock to defeat an insidious force of evil; and the meter is running…

As if paying total strangers to take rides in their cars wasn’t stressful enough, now come Brian Visciglia’s horror film that uses ride-sharing as its high-concept premise. Depicting the brutal activities of a serial killer after he assumes a driver’s identity and proceeds to murder his passengers, Ryde will make you think twice before tapping an app the next time you need to get somewhere.
We’re introduced to the central character, Paul (David Wachs)—who’s as handsome and chiseled as American Psycho’s Patrick Bateman, only without the fashion sense—as he meets a gorgeous woman in a bar who takes him home...

Paul (David Wachs) murders a ride-sharing driver and assumes his identity to pick up, and murder, more people. That’s the movie. I’m glad that I’m not being paid by the word.
Ryde is a brutal, stylistic thriller/horror flick by director Brian Visciglia. Visually, this is a very appealing film. From the way light rolls over the hood of Paul’s stolen car to the neon drenched rain-washed back alleys of Los Angeles; I had the feeling Visciglia had seen Blade Runner a time or two.
But beautifully shot lighting isn’t all Ryde has to offer. This film also doesn’t shy away from unapologetic violence. Paul is a kill crazy psychopath slaughtering his way through birthday partygoers, bachelorette partygoers, and just partygoers. Paul will curb stomp anyone having a pleasant evening.
