L-R: Julie Benz, Busy Philipps, Ron Perlman and Jim RashLINK/Getty/Matt Kalish/Chris Chapman for Deadline The film will see a down-on-her-luck scream queen (Benz) return to the horror convention circuit for fast cash, only to find the pig-masked killer from her old franchise weaponizing her cult legacy against her friends and fans, forcing her to confront past demons and fight for survival in a blood-soaked slasher showdown. The project, which is due to shoot this summer, marks the feature debut of writer-director Michael Zara, a writer on three seasons of TNT drama Major Crimes. Zara said: “The idea for Horrified came to me over twelve years ago while I was attending a Midwest horror convention, so finally seeing it become a reality with a killer (pun intended) cast and producing team is truly thrilling.”
