Ted Geoghegan has set his follow-up to his critical and commercial horror hit We Are Still Here, pictured, directing Satanic Panic for Dark Sky Films and Snowfort Pictures.
“Satanic Panic centers on a minimum-wage delivery girl who is forced into a night-long battle with the rich and affluent leaders of a suburban community after discovering they’re part of a satanic cult. Casting will begin soon.”
The original screenplay is being written by Grady Hendrix, whose recent best-selling novel “Horrorstör” is in development at Fox Television with “Gossip Girl” creator Josh Schwartz.
“Equal parts supernatural horror and survival thriller, the film hinges on smart, funny dialogue and a clever, surprisingly badass female hero,” explains Geoghegan. “A snarky, splattery takedown of the 1%, it places a trod-upon heroine up against the literally soulless societal upper crust. The banter and blood come fast and furious, and we’re hoping to leave very little time to breathe between gasps and gags.”
