Ingenious Media’s Superstition: The Rule of 3’s (formerly Superstition: Final Chance) has wrapped production in Georgia and will complete filming in Louisiana, reports Variety, who adds that BCL Finance Group has signed a deal to complete the financing package.
Directed by Kevin Goetz and Michael Goetz (Martyrs), “The story takes place after two unrelated deaths occur on a university campus, with a co-ed and her friends unwittingly pulled into participating in the Dead Pool — an online game based on the superstition that death comes in threes, in which students place bets on who will die next. What starts as an immature joke soon turns to terror, when she learns her “selection” has died in an automobile accident, then discovers that her friends are being killed one by one, making her the prime suspect.”
The cast includes Amanda Cerny (The Deleted), Shad Moss, Ludacris, Lauren Alysa McClain, Terayle Hill, Taylour Paige, and Tyga. Final Destination‘s Jeffrey Reddick penned the screenplay.
The film is the first in a planned franchise of feature-length thrillers with themes of addiction to social media and technology, desensitization toward violence in a society that now runs on a 24-hour news cycle and a culture that breeds isolation, paranoia and fear.
Bassick, Cohen and Jordi Rediu will serve as producers; Laundon will exec produce.
