Story
There Is Just One Law. Run.
A petty thief driving through the New Mexico desert becomes the target of a psychopathic small-town sheriff who views his badge as a licence to prey on vulnerable women.
Stripped of her phone, car and voice, she must rely on raw instinct and street smarts to survive a brutal game of cat and mouse — and reclaim her power in a land where the law is just another form of control.
The Chase
A Desert Road Thriller Built on Pursuit
Blood Star combines the tension of a classic road thriller with the psychological pressure of survival horror.
Set against empty highways, remote gas stations and exposed desert landscapes, the film follows a young woman whose encounter with a corrupt sheriff turns an ordinary journey into a fight for survival.
For fans of Duel, The Hitcher, Breakdown, Wolf Creek and No Country for Old Men.

About Blood Star
Law. Hunt. Survival.
Directed by Lawrence Jacomelli, Blood Star stars Britni Camacho as Bobbie, a young woman travelling alone through the desert, and John Schwab as the small-town sheriff who begins hunting her.
What starts as a roadside encounter develops into a relentless struggle for control, as Bobbie realises that the man pursuing her is protected by the authority he abuses.
The film draws on the tradition of 1970s road thrillers, desert noir and stripped-back survival cinema, using landscape, silence and sudden violence to build tension.
