Getting set to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival is the long awaited new film from Inside filmmakers Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo, Livid, and to celebrate the event we’ve got some neat concept art for you to dig on.

Livid has been acquired by Dimension Films for release here in the States.

From the Press Release: Dimension Films has acquired French language horror film LIVID directed by Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo from SND (Groupe M6). The film stars Marie-Claude Pietragalla, Chloe Coulloud, and Felix Moati and marks the second collaboration with Dimension Films and duo Maury and Bustillo, who previously directed INSIDE. The announcement was made by Bob Weinstein, co-chairman of The Weinstein Company (TWC).

LIVID is a horror fairytale set during Halloween night when three youths decide to burglarize an old lady’s desolate house, but what awaits them is no ordinary house…

“We are thrilled to be back in business with Julien and Alex and couldn’t be more excited to help bring their frightening vision to fans everywhere,” said Bob Weinstein.

“It’s a pleasure to collaborate with such a great partner on the LIVID adventure. Dimension is the perfect fit,” declared Lionel Uzan, Director of Acquisitions and Sales of SND. LIVID is produced by Vérane Frédiani and Frank Ribière (La Fabrique 2) and coproduced by SND, Plug FX, and La Ferme.
