The deity driving force behind Fuad Ramses’ cannibal chopping killing spree has been cast for the forthcoming remake hitting 2016. In the original Blood Feast, the Goddess Ishtar was the golden statue representation which the creepy caterer was preparing to bring back to life. Sadie Katz (Wrong Turn 6) will embody the Babylonian celestial being praised for fertility, love, war and sex.
It is unknown how exactly she will appear though the synopsis might shed some light on this:
Fuad Ramses and his family have moved from the United States to France, where they run an American diner. Since business is not going too well, Fuad also works night shifts in a museum of ancient Egyptian culture. During these long, lonely nights he is repeatedly drawn to a statue representing the seductive ancient goddess ISHTAR. He becomes more and more allured by the goddess as she speaks to him in visions. Eventually he succumbs to her deadly charms. After this pivotal night, Fuad begins a new life, in which murder and cannibalism become his daily bread. He starts to prepare a ritual FEAST to honor his new mistress, a lavish affair dripping with BLOOD, organs, and intestines of human victims. As butchered bodies are heaped upon the Altar of Ishtar, Fuad slowly slips further into madness, until he is no more than the goddess’s puppet; and she thirsts for the blood of Fuad’s wife and daughter too…

In the spirit of transparency I heard about the project through working alongside the communications company handling the film.
