TV: Horror Icon Lin Shaye Heads To “Hell” As Gramma Ethel
Insidious and A Nightmare on Elm Street‘s Lin Shaye (pictured below right) will be joining horror icons Bill Moseley and Michael Berryman in the new TV Series Pilot “Hell Hunters”, created by Lawrence Donini and directed by Jourdan McClure, says a press release.
Known for some of the most prolific and horrific characters of all time, Lin Shaye will be playing her most terrifying and grotesque role yet; as the disgustingly demented grandmother of young Hazard, Gramma Ethel.
Written by Donini, “‘Hell Hunters’ is an action/horror crime thriller that tells the story of two young childhood friends, that after reading a horrific comic book, decide to become the murderous vigilante characters in real life.“
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
