John Carpenter To Direct Hilary Swank In Fangland


ComingSoon says that John Carpenter (The Thing) has been hired to direct Fangland based on the novel by John Marks. The film has been in development for Oscar-winning actress Hilary Swank who is also returning to horror with Hammer Film's The Resident. Sent on assignment to Transylvania, a reporter delivers more than a story when mysterious e-mails, coffins, and a creepy guy named Torgu descend on the New York office.



The vampire genre is a return for both Carpenter and Swank. Hilary appeared in the original Buffy The Vampire Slayer film while John directed his own slayer film Vampires. I'm a massive fan of John Carpenter so I'm dying to see him turn out more films. His next film The Ward will be his first film in almost a decade.
