The Lost, All Cheerleaders Die and I Know Who Killed Me‘s Chris Sivertson is back and this time he’s joined by Christina Ricci, best known to us horror fans as Wednesday Addams in The Addams Family films from the 1990s.
Bloody Disgusting learned that Ricci, who more recently appeared in the “Sleepy Hollow” series and Quibi’s “50 States of Fright” (pictured), stars in Monstrous as a traumatized woman fleeing from her abusive ex-husband with her 7-year-old son. In their new, remote sanctuary they find they have a bigger, more terrifying monster to deal with.
Colleen Camp (Police Academy, Clue, “The Twilight Zone”) costars.
Monstrous comes in partnership with Screen Media, a Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment company, and Clay Epstein’s Film Mode Entertainment.
“[Writer] Carol Chrest created an iconic genre character who Christina Ricci brings to life in a mesmerizing and deeply emotional performance,” said Sivertson.
Robert Yocum, Sasha Yelaun and B.I. Rosen are producing alongside Johnny Remo. Sivertson and Aperture Entertainment’s Adam Goldworm (MY FRIEND DAHMER) are executive producing alongside Omer Paracha, Sean Reilly, Clay Epstein, Craig Albrecht, Carol Anne Watts and Adam Sigal of Scarlett Pictures, and Galen Christy and Mark Silba of High Octane Pictures.
Principal Photography began in early December in Los Angeles, CA throughout Simi Valley, Sherman Oaks and Altadena.
