The writer of Feast, The Collector, Saw IV-Saw 3D, and Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, Marcus Dunstan is next set to direct horror movie All My Friends Are Dead, and Deadline reports this week that singer/actor Jojo Siwa will star alongside Jade Pettyjohn (Destroyer).
Deadline also notes, “Film Mode has international rights and is shopping the film at EFM.”
“I’m so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the upcoming movie,” Siwa said. “This is a project that is so different from anything I’ve done previously; however, I absolutely love horror movies and I can’t wait to start production! I’m also excited to work with Jade again. We worked together when we were younger and can’t wait to create this movie together.”
All My Friends Are Dead is the first in a 10-picture, $15M slate deal between Bloody Disgusting owner Cinedigm and Roundtable Entertainment, as we told you last year.
Cinedigm holds North American rights to All My Friends Are Dead.
The film “follows a group of close college friends who get a steal on a killer Airbnb for the biggest music festival of the year. A weekend of partying quickly takes a turn for the worse, as the group is murdered one by one. They soon discover that each one of their deaths directly corresponds to one of the seven deadly sins.”
Josh Sims and Jessica Sarah Flaum wrote the script.
John Baldecchi (Happy Death Day, Happy Death Day 2U) is producing. Jason Resnick (Kidnap) and Kevin Greutert (SAW franchise) are executive producing.
“The script has an entertaining mix of humor and horror that appeals to the die-hard horror fans, comedy lovers, scaredy cats alike,” Baldecchi said in a statement to Deadline. “The film, that is reminiscent of hits like Happy Death Day and is full of fun is also equally scary with clever plot twists that will keep you guessing until the very end.”
