In the pages of Fangoria #22, Lisa Frankenstein writer Diablo Cody (Jennifer’s Body) notes that the upcoming horror-comedy is inspired by 1980s movies including Weird Science, Beetlejuice and Night of the Comet, calling the film a “paranormal love story.” Cody goes on to say about the film, “I think it captures the simpler vibe of that time.”
Kathryn Newton (Freaky) and Cole Sprouse (“Riverdale”) are leading the cast for Focus Features, and the film is rated “PG-13” for “bloody images and sexual material.”
Carla Gugino (The Fall of the House of Usher), Liza Soberano (Alone/Together), Joe Chrest (Stranger Things) and Henry Eikenberry (The Crowded Room) also star.
In Lisa Frankenstein, “Set in 1989, the film follows an unpopular high schooler who accidentally re-animates a handsome Victorian corpse during a lightning storm and starts to rebuild him into the man of her dreams using the broken tanning bed in her garage.”
Here’s a new official plot synopsis: “A coming of RAGE love story about a misunderstood teenager and her high school crush, who happens to be a handsome corpse. After a set of playfully horrific circumstances bring him back to life, the two embark on a murderous journey to find love, happiness… and a few missing body parts along the way.”
Diablo Cody will also produce the movie alongside Mason Novick.
