Canada Starts Shining with Becoming

By Uncle Creepy
November 23rd, 2012

The land of the Great White North is constantly churning our horror flicks, and another ghostly tale which is said to be Shining-esque in nature is on its way. Of course we have the first word and artwork for you!

The movie known as Becoming was directed by Omar Naim and stars Justin Bartha (The Hangover) and Rachel Nichols (P2, Red Eye). Look for more on it soon as it is in post-production.

Becoming is a dramatic supernatural thriller about Alex and Lisa, an ordinary couple who come face to face with an ancient evil. While on a road trip retracing family roots, Alex is gradually taken over by a malevolent entity, which slowly begins to replace his identity piece by piece. Though he still looks like the man she loves, this new Alex has dark and disturbing plans for Lisa and will use her trust and love against her at every turn. By combining the naturalism of Blue Valentine with the tension of The Shining, Becoming forges a new path for psychological horror.
