We learned back in April that Cinestate, the company behind the resurgence of Fangoria as well as the upcoming Puppet Master: The Littlest Reich, is developing a remake of Full Moon’s Stuart Gordon-directed Castle Freak; in the ’95 film, a man struggles to save his family from the strange and deadly occurrences in the castle they’ve inherited.
Castle Freak will be directed by SFX guru Tate Steinsiek with original star Barbara Crampton producing alongside Dallas Sonnier, Amanda Presmyk, and Charles Band.
Over on Twitter last night, Crampton teased that the Castle Freak script is currently being written, noting that it will feature “an expanded Lovecraft universe“…
And have you heard we are reimagining it in a new film? The story will have elements of the first but with many new characters and an expanded Lovecraft universe. https://t.co/LJcbj7wEWW
