Modernciné producer Andrew van den Houten is reteaming with The Girl Next Door director Gregory Wilson on Ghoul, an adaptation of the Brian Keene novel. Actress Catherine Mary Stewart, a fan favorite from Night of the Comet and The Last Starfighter, and who had a small part in Girl, is taking a role in the project.
Speaking at the recent Monster Mania convention in New Jersey, Stewart reveals that she’ll be shooting the movie in April and May. “It’s a very creepy script,” she says. “It’s not about zombies or anything like that; it’s much more realistic. It’s about a bunch of kids who start disappearing for some reason, and another group of kids who are friends with the ones who are disappearing discover why.
