Tom Holland's back in the horror game! The CHILD'S PLAY and FRIGHT NIGHT director has assembled a team of horror superstars to work on his next project, entitled ROCK PAPER DEAD. The legendary cabal will include screenwriter Victor Miller (FRIDAY THE 13TH, a property he is currently suing to reclaim the rights of), composer Harry Manfredini (FRIDAY THE 13TH 1-6, SLAUGHTER HIGH, HOUSE), and make-up artist Vincent Guastini (REQUIEM FOR A DREAM, CHILD'S PLAY 3, SILENT NIGHT).
The film will begin production next month for a slated release before Halloween 2017.
ROCK PAPER DEAD is about:
a serial killer, Peter “The Doll Maker” Harris, who returns to his ancestral family estate after being released from the state’s hospital for the criminally insane after twenty years – a “cured” man. Once inside the old house, anguished memories from a tortured childhood and visitations from past victims shake Peter’s resolve, but it isn’t until the lovely young Ashley enters his life that Peter makes a fateful decision — one that rekindles old desires that have always ended in murder.
Guastini will be designing a line of dolls and death masks that represent the killer's victims, which will be available for purchase in the lead-up to the film's release.
ROCK PAPER DEAD is produced by Amy Williams, Victor Miller, and co-writer Kerry Fleming.
