Fresh off this year’s The Coffee Table, one of the most downright shocking horror movies in years (and Stephen King agrees), director Caye Casas is now in development on a brand new movie. According to a report from Variety today, it’s titled El Show del Gran Luciferio.
The outlet notes that the upcoming genre film is “now in development and headed to the Sanfic Int’l Film Festival after being selected for this year’s Morbido Lab tutelage program.”
The website details, “The plot centers on the eccentric Luciferio, a game show host who pits contestants against each other in over-the-top trials to appease a rapt audience.
“As the show progresses, the games grow more barbaric as the adulation for the savage host drives increasing fury.”
Casas explains, “What are we capable of doing for money? We all have a price according to our personality, our circumstances and our ambitions. We wanted to create a fun, cruel, macabre and spectacular story that played with this concept, with the idea of what our price truly is.”
“We wanted to ensure that those who saw The Coffee Table would never forget it. The same thing will happen with El Show del Gran Luciferio; they’ll enjoy it and suffer from it, but they’ll never be able to forget it. I promise you,” he teases.
