Written by Josh Miller and Mark Fortin, the scary flick is called Minnow and follows a mother who is tortured by the angry spirit of her dead child. Is it just me or does that sound a little bit fucked up? As if the poor woman weren’t suffering enough having lost her child, now she has to deal with his essence being psychotic.
They’re also developing a film that might have a horror spin on it called Venom, based on a soon-to-be-published novel by Heavy Metal and You author Chris Krovatin, about a Manhattan teen who deals with his angst by entering a comic book world created by his own imagination. Lots of things can happen in comics, up to and including scantily clad women, so I have to say that’s a damn fine plan.
We’ll have more for you on both films as they develop!
