Frank Grillo’s upcoming horror film Werewolves has got itself a distributor and it sounds like it’s going to be a wild movie with practical werewolf effects!
In Werewolves, “a supermoon event triggers a latent gene in every human on the planet, turning anyone who entered the moonlight into a werewolf for that one night. Chaos ensued and close to a billion people died. Now, a year later, the Supermoon is back.”
The movie was picked up by Briarcliff Entertainment and The Solution Entertainment Group and it will be released in theaters on December 6th.
Myles Nestel, co-CEO of The Solution said in a statement: “We are super excited to be releasing Werewolves later this year exclusively in theatres. Our cast is incredible from the amazing Frank Grillo to powerhouse performances from Katrina Law and Ilfenesh Hadera.
He continued: “The use of practical werewolves designed and built by Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff Jr (known from the Alien and Predator series) takes the genre back to its roots in a fresh and exciting way. We hope audiences will have as much fun experiencing the film in theatres as we had making it!”
The film has been described as The Purge… with werewolves, and it also stars Katrina Law (NCIS), Ilfenesh Hadera (Godfather Of Harlem), James Michael Cummings (City On The Hill) and Lou Diamond Phillips (Prodigal Son).
The movie was directed by Steven C. Miller (First Kill, Escape Plan 2) from a script written by Matthew Kennedy (Inheritance).
