Patrick Lussier, director of My Bloody Valentine 3D, Drive Angry, and 2019’s Trick, is directing the upcoming horror Play Dead, which is currently in post-production with Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down, The Strangers: Prey at Night) producing.
Screen Daily is reporting that Bailee Madison (The Strangers: Prey at Night, pictured above) will star in the lead role of the movie that also stars Jerry O’Connell, Anthony Turpel, Chris Butler, Chris Lee, and Jorge-Luis Pallo. Adam Mason and Simon Boyes penned the script for the film.
Play Dead centers on “criminology student Chloe (Madison), who fakes her own death to break into a local morgue to steal a piece of evidence that ties her younger brother to a crime. Once inside she discovers the coroner is using the business as a front to sell body parts. When the coroner discovers Chloe is not dead a game of cat-and-mouse ensues.”
