Based on Bram Stoker’s Dracula as well as an Irish legend, the upcoming vampire movie Feed is being launched at the Cannes Market this month, Deadline reports today.
Daisy Jelley (How to Have Sex), Clinton Liberty (Red Election), and Niamh McCormack (“The Witcher”) will star in Feed, which is centered on a female vampiress.
“Inspired by Bram Stoker’s Dracula and the Irish legend of Dearg-Due, the film will see a group of twentysomething social media influencers battle for their lives at a remote contemporary mansion when they awaken the world’s original female vampire.”
Deadline notes, “Metro International Entertainment is handling international sales on the project from writer and director Marco van Belle (Arthur & Merlin).
“Ripple World’s Jac Kerrin and Dominic Wright (The Last Rifleman) are producing with Umedia (The Three Musketeers: D’Artagnan) as co-producers. Niamh Fagan is executive producer for Screen Ireland/Fís Éireann, which are providing production and development financing. The film is scheduled to shoot this autumn in Ireland.”
Ripple World said in a statement, “Marco has created an original female Irish twist on the vampire horror genre. We’ve assembled a wonderful young cast and we’re all hungry to get our teeth into the production. Feed is a roller coaster of a film that should have audiences on the edge of their seats and leave them thinking hard about what they wish for.”
