Warners Begins ‘Blood Wars’ Against Slavery
Warner Bros. has just acquired Blood Wars, said to be a radical reinvention of vampire mythology, TheWrap reports.
Imagine Entertainment is producing the film where “vampires have control of the world and humans are their slaves. But humans infiltrate the vampire army and plan a rebellion.” If you ask me it sounds like the same ol’ song and dance, and not much of a “reinvention”…
The project is based on a story by Chad St. John and Blacklight Transmedia, with Dalan Musson writing the script.
The subgenre remains big (in development) with Twentieth Century Fox in production on Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, The Hunger, a remake of Tony Scott’s 1983 film, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, based on the television show, Midnight Mass, based on the DC Comic, Nocturnal, with Legendary Pictures and Bite Me, with Thunder Road and Mad Chance.
Funny how none of these films (sans Abraham Lincoln) have made it into production — and it’s even funnier that the success of both “True Blood” and Twilight resurrected Vlad, two projects that land in a completely different subgenre with an even more narrow audience. Still, it’s exciting to know the studios are attempting to get more fangs into theaters.

In Mind Body Spirit, “Anya, an aspiring yoga influencer, embarks on a ritual practice left behind by her estranged grandmother. She documents the practice on her YouTube channel for the world to watch, allowing her audience intimate access to her journey.

As Anya becomes obsessed with the mysterious power of the practice, she unwittingly unleashes an otherworldly entity that begins to take control of her life – and her videos. Now Anya must race to unlock the truth, before her descent into madness threatens to consume her mind, body and spirit. By the time she reveals the true nature of the ritual, will it be too late?”
