Prime Video has released a trailer and images for the Sweeney Todd-inspired dark comedy-drama The Horror of Dolores Roach.

Based on the hit podcast series of the same name, it follows Dolores (Justina Machado), a woman who is released after an unjust prison sentence, as she returns home and turns to shocking extremes to survive while working as a masseuse under her friends empanada shop.

When the promise of her newfound stability is quickly threatened, “Magic Hands” Dolores is driven to shocking extremes to survive.
