We’re big fans of Joe Lynch, who got his start directing the incredibly entertaining 2007 sequel Wrong Turn 2. Lynch has gone on to direct films like Everly and this year’s Mayhem, and he’s been a staple on the horror scene thanks to the podcast The Movie Crypt, co-hosted by Hatchet director Adam Green.
What’s next for Lynch? Another horror movie, we’re happy to report!
Via Deadline, Lynch will be directing Taste, a horror film written by David Cohen. The shoot is expected to take place in Los Angeles this coming Summer.
When a young chef-on-the-rise is invited to cook for a revered master’s private supper club, what at first seems like a career-launching opportunity soon turns deadly with the discovery that she and her husband are at risk of becoming dinner themselves.
“I’ve been dying to direct something darker in the genre and when I read David’s script, which had a fantastic take on the current foodie/haute cuisine culture, I was pretty much salivating,” Lynch said. “I’m thrilled to be working with Penchant [Entertainment] to bring this fantastically twisted and exciting tale to life and make people rethink what’s for dinner.”
Erin Eggers, Chase Hudson and Matthew Porter will produce with Cohen.
