Lionsgate Looking to Get Cooties at SundanceOne of the biggest horror properties playing at this year’s Sundance Film Festival is Cooties, and Lionsgate is looking to catch the infection and spread it to you later this year! Read on for details.

According to THR, Lionsgate is nearing a deal to acquire North American distribution rights to Cooties, the horror-comedy starring Elijah Wood that premiered Saturday at Sundance’s Park City at Midnight sidebar. A source pegs the potential deal at seven figures.

Cooties marks the debut feature of Wood and his SpectreVision production banner, which he runs with Daniel Noah and Josh Waller. The company specializes in the horror genre, and it also has A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, a black and white Iranian vampire Western, premiering at the festival. Cooties is the debut movie of directors Jonathan Milott and Cary Murnion, known for helming the short Boob, about a killer breast.

Synopsis
A mysterious virus hits an isolated elementary school and transforms the students into a feral swarm of mass savages; then an unlikely hero must lead a motley band of teachers in the fight of their lives.
