Late last week we told you that production is close to getting underway in Atlanta, Georgia on Shudder’s Creepshow revival, which will see effects master Greg Nicotero directing a handful of episodes. The first episode to go in front of cameras would be “Survivor Type”, based on the Stephen King story in which a man, shipwrecked on a desert island, reflects on his life and does the unthinkable in order to survive.
Now, thanks to Production Weekly, we learned that comedy writer-director Rob Schrab (Monster House, “Workaholics”, “The Sarah Silverman Program”, “Community”) will be directing at least one episode titled “Bad Wolf Down”.
In the episode, set to film this February:
“A group of World War II American soldiers, pinned down by a Nazi unit, resort to unholy and supernatural means to avoid capture, torture and death.”
Based on the iconic anthology film written by Stephen King and directed by George Romero, each episode of the anthology series will tell original fun and scary stories, and will be helmed by a different director. We’re told that each episode will consist of two stories.
Keep your eyes peeled here for more details as they arrive.
