Get ready for a chilling cinematic experience as acclaimed director David F. Sandberg takes on a new horror project! Sandberg, known for his thrilling blockbusters like Shazam! and its sequel, is now gearing up to bring 'A Little Slice of Hell' to the big screen, leaving fans eager for a terrifying treat.
But here's the twist: Sandberg will adapt a short story by John Goodrich, which revolves around an unusual and hellish customer encounter at a supermarket. Imagine a mundane job turning into a nightmare! The story, published in the inaugural issue of Assemble Artifacts, has captured the attention of Paramount Pictures, who are keeping the plot details tightly under wraps for now.
The scriptwriting duties fall on the talented duo Greg Weidman and Geoff Tock, who have a knack for TV hits like Limitless and Zoo. They'll be working from a previous draft by Emily V. Gordon, the brilliant mind behind The Big Sick. With such a stellar team, expectations are already soaring.
The film's production team is a powerhouse, featuring Johnny Pariseau, Patrick Gooing, and Molly Milstein from Maximum Effort, alongside Jack Heller, Caitlin de Lisser-Ellen, and Lotta Losten. Sandberg's involvement is a significant draw, given his impressive track record with horror films. From the viral short Lights Out to the successful Annabelle: Creation, he's no stranger to scaring audiences worldwide.
But wait, there's more! Sandberg's recent adaptation of the video game Until Dawn further proves his versatility. And with Shazam! under his belt, he's proven his ability to balance horror and humor.
