‘A Deadly Ride’: Jamie Bernadette and B.J. Britt Battle in New Ride-Share Thriller
If you’ve ever had even a brief pang of anxiety while taking a Lyft or Uber, then Glenn Ciano’s new thriller A Deadly Ride may just be for you. The new film follows a desperate ride-share driver, a heartbroken woman, and an unsuspecting jogger who all crash together, quite literally, in a twisty tale of survival.
Read the full synopsis below:
Cary, a ride-share driver drowning in debt and robbing his client’s vacant homes, alters his fate when he picks up Kailey, who is heartbroken after discovering her boyfriend’s infidelity. The journey takes a horrific turn when Cary accidentally hits Adrian, a jogger. In a panic, Cary decides to hit Kailey, too, hoping to eliminate witnesses and protect his secret. Both Kailey and Adrian survive but find themselves injured and fleeing for their lives during a bone-chilling snowstorm. As Cary hunts them down, Kailey and Adrian must band together, fighting for survival against their relentless pursuer. The stakes are high and the moral boundaries blur as the struggle for justice unfolds in the bitter cold.

Director Glenn Ciano said, “This production was challenging…A WILD deadly ride, anchored by strong character performances by Jamie Bernadette and BJ Britt who are on an unstoppable collision course. I haven’t had this much fun making a movie since Inkubus with Robert Englund.”
Jamie Bernadette (I Spit on Your Grave: Deja Vu, NCIS: New Orleans), B.J. Britt (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Vampires Suck), and Chris Whitcomb (Junction) star in the new thriller.
Jamie Bernadette says this was one of her all-time favorite filming experiences. She explained, “Almost the entire film was shot at nighttime in temperatures going as low as 2 degrees and some nights filmed in a snowstorm. The harsh conditions created a true reality that wasn’t just a backdrop to the story but became a part of the story itself. I didn’t need to ‘act’ cold, I was cold, and I think it truly brought out some great performances in all of us. Couple that with a phenomenal director, producing team, cast, and crew who were supportive and fun, and you have a gem of an experience.”
A Deadly Drive comes to Amazon and Fandango on February 4, 2025.
