Red Rose Trailer and Release Date
The trailer starts with a group of high schoolers having fun at a hilltop. However, a girl named Roch seems disturbed because some students don’t include her or treat her well. Then the next scene shows how Roch presses an app called Red Rose and enters it. This is when things turn mysterious. Roch’s friends get worried about her and try to communicate with her, but she pushes them away.
The teenagers now try to find who is behind the app. Is it a supernatural entity, or is someone out there trying to mess up young people? The trailer included only a handful of scenes, and it feels intriguing. One can’t make any assumptions because the editors kept the mystery in the trailer. Check it out yourself.
