ComingSoon says that John Carpenter (The Thing) has been hired to direct Fangland based on the novel by John Marks. The film has been in development for Oscar-winning actress Hilary Swank who is also returning to horror with Hammer Film's The Resident. Sent on assignment to Transylvania, a reporter delivers more than a story when mysterious e-mails, coffins, and a creepy guy named Torgu descend on the New York office.
The vampire genre is a return for both Carpenter and Swank. Hilary appeared in the original Buffy The Vampire Slayer film while John directed his own slayer film Vampires. I'm a massive fan of John Carpenter so I'm dying to see him turn out more films. His next film The Ward will be his first film in almost a decade.
