This horror film should have bite.
UK sales outfit The Salt Company has boarded international rights to horror The Pool, to be directed by Paul Hyett (The Seasoning House, Howl), says ScreenDaily.
“The Pool follows a pool party at a luxury cliff top location that becomes a desperate fight for survival when the beloved family dog turns rabid.”
It was written by Johannes Roberts and Ernest Riera (with revisions by Hyett, Conal Palmer and Steven Lally), and set to be produced by Tim Dennison of Tall Man Films.
FX specialist Hyett has worked on hits including The Descent and The Woman in Black.
The film is due to start shoot in autumn 2014 in Puerto Rico.
