Lionsgate Distributes After Dark's 'Husk'
Friday, September 4, 2009

Devon Graye, best known for playing the teenage Dexter on Showtime's "Dexter," will star with CJ Thomason and Wes Chatham in Husk, a horror movie from After Dark Films. Tammin Sursok (Aquamarine) also stars. Brett Simmons wrote the script and is directing the project, which is based on Simmons' short film that played at Sundance (watch it inside!). The story sees five friends on a weekend trip who become stranded in isolated farmland when crows attack their SUV. They soon realize that the cornfields are inhabited by reanimated human scarecrows who reproduce by killing and force their undead victims to join their ranks. Graye plays the brainiac of the group, Thomason is the blue-collar guy, and Chatham is the jock. The movie is shooting in Iowa. After Dark has a distribution deal with Lionsgate.

'okay'? seriously? most pointless comment ever. right above this one. I think the shorts pretty badass...judging from his other shorts, the director seems pretty talented. check out The Visitor (in three acts) on his vimeo account. it's badass.

I remember seeing the short at Screamfest - some good stuff! Curious about how they'll expand the material.

I have a scarecrow fetish. lol Sadly, there hasn't been a good horror film of it's kind since 1988. :( Hopefully, this turns out good.

I hope they have better sound equipment for the adaptation.
