Television is getting yet another horror series inspired by a feature film. This time it’s What We Do in the Shadows that’s getting the small screen treatment as Empire is reporting that Taika Waititi and long-time collaborator Jemaine Clement (who played vampires Viago and Vladislav in the horror spoof) have a new series cooking based upon on the original film’s easily-manipulable police officers, Mike and Karen.
Entitled “Paranormal Event Response Unit,” the series will follow the aforementioned Mike and Karen as they try to keep Wellington safe from spooky beasties. Six 30-minute episodes will be hitting New Zealand channel TVNZ 2 with no word yet on who will be airing it in other territories.
In sequel related news, the project We’re Wolves is still very much a reality. Stay tuned.
