Josh Crook, co-writer and co-director of the 2006 horror thriller ‘Salvage’, is working on a new horror-comedy titled ‘Demon Hole’. In ‘Demon Hole’ a fracking crew, drilling on Native American land, unleashes an ancient evil. Now six teens must find away to survive. Crook had this to say about ‘Demon Hole’ : “The current crop of horror movies has gotten too severe and grim. While scary, they’re also depressing. Taking influence from John Hughes as much as it does John Carpenter and Wes Craven, Demon Hole brings the vibe of the 1980s back and invites the audience to enjoy the ride.” Demon Hole’s cast includes Samantha Scaffidi (The Apocalypse Survival Guide), Paris Campbell (Night Bus), Summer Bills (House of the Witchdoctor), Adrian Denzel (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) and ‘Jupiter Ascending’ actor Austin Ramsey. SC Films has picked up the international rights to ‘Demon Hole’. The release date has not announced at this time.
