Last night Eric Red's (The Hitcher, Near Dark) return to horror, 100 FEET, screened at the Screamfest Horror Film Festival in Hollywood, CA. Bloody-Disgusting reporter BC was on hand where Red revealed that he is working with Jack Ketchum on an adaptation of his book OFF SEASON. "I've known Jack for 30 years and we've been wanting to do this together, and I think now's the time." he said. The tease for Ketchim's novel from 1981? "They had Hunted every animal but there was no flesh like man's..." It'll be nice to finally see this on the big screen. An adaptation of OFFSPRING is also in the works with Andrew Van Den Houten behind the helm.

thedescent08 2:24pm, October 12, 2008 FUCK YEAH! I can't wait!!!!

to_the_9 11:36pm, October 12, 2008 Jack Ketchum is the maestro of extreme horror fiction, and thus far all of his film adaptations have been surprisingly superlative! Honestly, I could've never imagained novels such as "The Girl Next Door" and "The Lost" could be made so beautifully, respecting the source material while never shying from the extreme violence, either. However, I'm a bit wary; both "Off Season" and "Off Spring" are truly amazing (the former being my favorite horror novel of all time), but at the moment Ketchum is 3 for 3 on the film market. Let's hope the films are of the same quality level as their predecessors...
