Bryan Bertino, who followed up debut feature The Strangers with Mockingbird and then The Monster, is getting set to direct his next horror film, The Dark and the Wicked!
Deadline reports today that Xander Berkeley (“The Walking Dead”), Marin Ireland and Michael Abbott Jr. have joined the cast of the film, which was penned by Bertino.
It follows two siblings who are summoned back to the family farm to await the inevitability of their father’s death. What initially appears to be a timeless ritual of loss and remembrance turns out to be something very different.
Lynne Andrews, Julie Oliver-Touchstone, Tom Nowicki and Ella Ballentine co-star.
Bertino and Adrienne Biddle are producing under their Unbroken Pictures banner along with Sonny Mallhi and Kevin Matusow for The Traveling Picture Show Company.
