“Vicious” Makes Its Streaming Premiere on Paramount+ on October 10, 2025 and Announced as Part of Fantastic Fest’s 2025 Lineup

When Polly (Dakota Fanning) receives a mysterious Box from an unexpected late-night visitor, it comes with a simple instruction: place three things inside: something you need, something you hate, and something you love. What begins as a strange ritual quickly unravels into a waking nightmare. Trapped in a terrifying world where reality bends and memory betrays, Polly must navigate a series of impossible choices. As time slips away, she’s forced to confront the darkness not just around her, but within her – before it consumes everything and everyone she’s ever known.
