We Made a Movie! What Lurks ‘Under the Bed’?!!

Published

on

I have some pretty exciting news to share with you dear readers that hopefully will get your blood pumping.

Outside of Bloody Disgusting, both Tom and myself produced a horror movie that we’re pretty damn proud of. Over the past few month’s we’ve been working insane hours on both the website and Under the Bed, our horror film inspired by classic Steven Spielberg films such as Poltergeist.

Jonny Weston (John Dies at the End) and Gattlin Griffith (The New Daughter, Changeling, Green Lantern) topline the latest indie from up and coming genre producing outfit Site B. The duo will play brothers, Neal and Pauly, respectively. The two will will deal with the universal fear of a monster under the bed…

Ever since we discovered his $30k zombie feature Automaton Transfusion back in ’05/’06, we’ve been huge fans of director Steven C. Miller, which is why we approached him to helm this love letter to the 1980’s. The script was penned by Eric Stolze from a story we co-developed together.

Peter Holden (The Social Network), Musetta Vander (Sindel in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation !) and Kelcie Stranahan round out the cast. Holden plays Terry, the brothers’ father, while Vander stars as the stepmother Angela. Stranahan plays Cara, Neal’s love interest.

The suburban nightmare reteams A Horrible Way to Die executive producer Zak Zeman with myself. Will Clevinger also produces. Cinematographer Joseph White is utilizing the latest anamorphic lenses to achieve the look of the film. White recently completed both Mother’s Day and 11-11-11 for director Darren Lynn Bousman. We used the same lenses that J.J. Abrams used in Star Trek and the forthcoming Super 8 (so it’s gonna look insane!) Practical effects were provided by Vincent J. Guastini, while LIT will be taking on VFX duties.

Keith C. Blackmore’s book series Mountain Man is headed to the screen, with Deadline reporting today that Joe Manganiello (“True Blood”) is on board to star in the film adaptation.

The actor will also produce the upcoming zombie movie.

Mountain Man tells the story of Gus, a lonely post-apocalyptic survivor facing isolation and the ever-present specter of a zombie attack, who struggles with alcohol abuse and suicidal thoughts until he discovers another survivor, a captivating woman who poses another threat altogether.”

John Lee (False Positive) will direct Mountain Man from a script by Matt Deller.

“John is a brilliant creative mind. We’ve been looking for the right thing to do together since we filmed Pee Wee’s Big Holiday and it’s finally here,” 3:59’s Joe and Nick Manganiello told Deadline. “Very excited to get to work on such weird, wild project with him.”

Film Bridge International is launching sales on the project in Cannes.

Blackmore’s Mountain Man series features 7 books, the first one published in 2011.
