R.J. Daniel Hanna (Hard Miles) is in the director’s chair for an upcoming horror movie titled Succubus, and Deadline reports that Shout! Studios will distribute here in the United States.
Ron Perlman (Nightmare Alley) and Rosanna Arquette (Signs of Love) will lead the cast, which also includes Brendan Bradley (A Tale Told by an Idiot), Rachel Cook (The Hack Job), Olivia Applegate (Love & Death), Derek Smith (What/If), Emily Kincaid (Hard Miles) and Finley Rose Slater (Playing with Fire).
“Succubus follows a new father going through a marital separation who joins a dating app and matches with a beautiful but mysterious young woman… whose powers of seduction and manipulation entangle him in a mystery more horrifying than he could have ever imagined.”
Todd Slater of Convoke Media, Ari Novak and Anna Elizabeth James produce. John Rhodes, Jennifer Ambrose, and Braden Duemmler are exec producing alongside BondIt Media Capital.
“My favorite horror thrillers are ones that have something to say about human beings, and in Succubus, Daniel has crafted a chilling metaphor for the clutch that screens have on us,” said Shout! Studios’ Senior Vice President of Acquisitions and Originals, Jordan Fields. “This will disturb and resonate, like the best of the genre.”
Hanna said, “Succubus is a first-and-foremost a wild and brazen mystery-horror film about the most terrifying series of events that could ever befall a guy who let his nether regions do the thinking for him. But beyond the body horror, which is ample, it also comments on the very real vampire that’s sucking us all dry — our screens. As our hero is drawn by an online siren into her dark yet enticing world, he’s forced to face all he’s left behind, his whole real, meaningful life beyond the glowing rectangle he keeps in his pocket, and try to find a way back to it.”
