Satanic hasn’t begun shooting yet, however Magnet Releasing’s picked it the horror film for release. Jeff Hunt will be making the leap from TV to feature films as director of the supernatural teen horror movie scripted by Anthony Jawinski (Kristy, Vanishing on 7th Street).
Announcing the pickup, Magnolia President Eamonn Bowles said, “Satanic is an exciting, creepy script, and we’re very pleased to be partnering with the teams at MarVista and Circle of Confusion.”
“This is the kind of fun smart genre project that audiences love,” said Circle of Confusion partner Lawrence Mattis. “It warns you that just beneath the surface, the world might not be as safe and sane as you imagine.”
The Plot:
Satanic follows a van full of young, college-aged coeds who are visiting old Satanic Panic-era sites in Los Angeles. They end up following the creepy owner of an occult store home, only to find themselves saving a suspicious girl from an apparent human sacrifice. Only this “victim” turns out to be much more than dangerous then the cult from which she escaped.
