Shiver Director Plans Horrific Reality Show

Arriving later this year - and playing this weekend's HorrorHound Weekend in Indiana - is Isidro Ortiz's SHIVER, which was acquired by Dark Sky Films earlier this year. This afternoon Spanish website Aullidos caught wind of his next feature film project, which is an adaptation of Belgian author Amélie Nothomb's SULPHURIC ACID. Click the link above to check out some concept art for the film, which could star Asia Argento. Inside you'll find story details for the book.

Tired of traditional reality shows, the television audience wants blood, literally. One day, while out taking a walk in the Jardin des Plantes, Pannonique is piled into a cattle-truck. Suddenly, it seems, anyone can be picked up and hauled off to the studio without a moment's notice. Set in an unspecified time, "Sulphuric Acid" tells the story of this reality TV death camp which has become the nation's obsession - an amoral spectacle played out through the media - as we follow the shifting fortunes of Pannonique and her nemesis, the guard Zdena. A huge bestseller in her adopted France, it once again shows the unique voice and imagination of Amelie Nothomb.

The movie will take place on a ship, according to Aullidos.
