Twin Terror Brings ‘Envy’ to Supernatural World
Independent financier and production company Kerry Kimmel and Pollack has teamed with Eric Thompson’s Vigilante Entertainment to acquire feature film and TV rights to Gregg Olsen‘s young adult series Empty Coffin, reports Variety.
KK&P and Vigilante will co-finance and co-produce the first title in the series, “Envy,” “a paranormal thriller that follows twin sisters Hayley and Taylor Ryan as they try to unravel the mystery surrounding the death of their friend. The girls use their talents to solve the crime and in the process, uncover the origin of their own powers.”
KK&P’s CEO Michael Pollack and prexy Mark Morgan (“The Twilight Saga”) will produce with Eric Thompson, Brett Hudson and Kami Garcia.
“The material is sharp, funny and eerie,” said Thompson, who just produced the indie horror pic Rites of Spring. “It’s edgy with protagonists who are modern day teen sleuths with a big family secret.”
Production is skedded to start in fall 2012.

“Old-school American horror is back as Adam Green’s iconic Hatchet series returns in a blood-soaked, fully Unrated collection, uniting all four films for the first time.
“Unleashed at a time when the fun of 80s slashers had all but disappeared from the cinematic landscape, Hatchet ushered in a new era of terror with its unapologetic brutality and introduction of Victor Crowley, the modern bogeyman, who ruthlessly hunts those who dare tread into his swamp. With each installment, the stakes escalate, delivering bigger, bloodier scares and a relentless barrage of inventive kills. So gather all your pieces, because it’s time to return to his swamp and learn once and for all that some legends truly never die.”
Other films coming soon from Dark Sky Selects include The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974), The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers, and Faces of Death. Stay tuned for updates.
