Connor Storie is stalked by a shadowy figure in Look Behind You, Verizon’s new horror short from director Nia DaCosta. 

Set in a secluded woodland cabin on a rainy night, the Heated Rivalry star plays himself in the tense, moody film, which builds up to a clever comedic twist centred on Connor Storrie’s butt, after the actor became a sex symbol for his breakout role in Jacob Tierney’s queer hockey romance hit. The short marks another venture into the horror genre for Nia DaCosta, who previously directed the 2021 Jordan Peele-produced Candyman remake and this year’s 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple.
