Canmore actress Marika Sila earned her horror bonafides back in 2019 when she starred in an episode of Jordan Peele’s reimagining of The Twilight Zone, playing an Inuit police officer in Alaska opposite Greg Kinnear and Steven Yeun. But she landed her first feature-film starring role in 2022’s Ditched, a gory horror flick about the mayhem that ensues after a prison transfer of patients is ambushed on the road.
