According to van den Houten, they plan on addressing the events of Off Season early on in the film but are confident that Offspring can stand on its own without a lot of back story.
In casting news, Art Hindle (The Brood, Invasion of the Body Snatchers) will play George Peters and Pollyanna McIntosh (Headspace) will take on the role of “The Woman”, the matriarch of the cannibal clan. Anthony Pepe (“>Satan’s Little Helper) will be handling special makeup effects with William M. Miller (The Girl Next Door, Home Movie) on board as cinematographer.
So there you have it, folks. Jack Ketchum’s infamous cannibal clan will finally be adapted to the screen, just not in a way any of us could have anticipated. Andrew van den Houten assures us that all the nastiness will be kept intact, including the “cow” milking!
