Paramount Vantage has made another acquisition, this time plunging into the horror genre with Details. The film, written by Dan Kay and based on a short story China Mieville, will be produced by Paramount’s Jason Blum and his Blumhouse Productions, along with his colleague Amy Israel. Steven Schneider and Ian Levy will serve as executive producers.
The intricate story revolves around a psychological phenomenon called ‘pareidolia.’ When a man’s daughter after uncovering a demonic force only she can see, he relentlessly fights the supernatural to bring her back. Like Silent Hill, or a really deranged version of Labyrinth. No word yet if David Bowie will star and sing and dance in this film.
Paramount Vantage has been on a roll lately, as we mentioned in our news about The Immortalist. They have the Oscar-bound Babel due up later this year. Then they have the most anticipated film of next year (outside of Spiderman 3 perhaps) with Paul Thomas Anderson’s There Will Be Blood. And to top it all off, they have the next Noah Baumbach film in the pipeline.
