Odile, een Franse filmcriticus, tracht de horror B-Film "Red is Dead", een film over een gemaskerde moordenaar, te promoten. De problemen beginnen echter pas wanneer een echte moordenaar, gelijkend op die van de film, bekende regisseurs begint te moorden. Het verhaal speelt zich in Cannes af, juist vooraleer het filmfestival van start gaat.
Nee, helaas is La cité de la peur nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
