Another early EFM deal with Shudder acquiring Dead & Beautiful, directed by prominent Dutch filmmaker David Verbeek (Full Contact), for the U.S., Canada, U.K., Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, says Variety.
“The film follows a group of young and spoiled teenagers in an Asian megalopolis who turn into vampires after a night of partying.
“Bewildered at first, the group realizes they feel even stronger, more attractive and more invincible than ever before, but it quickly dawns on them that they can no longer trust each other.”
This is Verbeek’s seventh feature. His credits include R U There, which played at Cannes’ Un Certain Regard in 2010, and Full Contact, which competed at Toronto in the inaugural Platform Section in 2015.
