Nine Bodies in a Morgue trailer sheds light on a chilling discovery in the morgue
In the trailer, released on February 13, 2025, while the story unfolds in flashbacks, the stranded passengers scramble to find out who the killer is before another of them dies. In one scene, Mexican soldiers realize that although they have ten passports for the plane crash survivors, they only have nine bodies in the morgue.
One of the soldiers assumes that they must be missing someone, as the suspense around the identity of the killer keeps on building. At one point in the trailer, when the stranded fellow passengers realize that they are getting killed one by one, McCormack's Kevin sarcastically says,
"Let’s all assume the worst of each other, because that’s helpful."
The plot of Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue follows the trope of Agatha Christie's novel, Ten Little Indians, where characters gather on an island and keep dying one by one, as the survivors assume that the killer must be one of them.
