James Wan is set to produce a new horror thriller for New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. called Sweet Tooth. The movie is based on a Dutch short horror film of the same name and it will be directed by Dutch filmmaker Nico van den Brink, who also wrote and directed the short.
The story centers on a woman "who comes home to her large apartment tenement. Watching the news, she discovers that her neighbors — a mother and her two kids — have been killed, but then enters creep-zone territory when she begins to hear the laughter and running of the munchkins."
That sounds like it could be a fun and creepy horror flick! The short premiered in July at Montreal’s Fantasia International Film Festival, but it has yet to be released online for people to watch.
New Line will hire a writer to come in and take the concept...

(The still above is from iMedium, one of the best shorts in the Small Gauge Trauma block.) It's no secret that we adore Fantasia here at ScreenAnarchy. In addition to the great live events, features, and raucous Q&As, the festival always programs great short films, and the 2017 edition was no different. (Check out the Born of Woman program review here and the International Science Fiction Short Showcase here.) Small Gauge Trauma is a favorite annual viewing for me, and I saw some incredible films this year in this block. Sweet Tooth (dir. Nico van den Brink, Netherlands, 2017) Sweet Tooth starts out the block with your typical scary ghost child tale. At just five minutes, it's a bit too short, and offers a jump scare, but...
