Emmy Award-winning entertainment company Zoic Studios has optioned New York Times best-selling author Christopher Golden’s horror novel Snowblind to adapt for a feature film. Female screenwriter Amber Alexander is attached to pen the screenplay, with Golden and Pete Donaldson (Fallen, Mr Higgins Comes Home) attached to produce alongside Zoic Studios.
Snowblind peers into the small New England town of Coventry as they weather a blizzard unlike the many thousands they’ve seen before. Families are torn apart, and the town will never be the same.
The book has received widespread acclaim, including praise from Stephen King: “Snowblind is instantly involving and deeply scary. It will bring a blizzard to your bones (and your heart), even in the middle of July. Throw away all those old ‘it was a dark and stormy night’ novels; this one is the real deal.”
“I’m incredibly proud and humbled by the success of our company and Zoic’s plan was to always evolve into creative producers of content. Snowblind is the first of many exciting projects on our developing slate. Not only is it fantastic source material, but we are thrilled to be working with Amber,” says Zoic Co-Founder/Executive Creative Director Chris Jones.
