Jeffrey Dean Morgan will open Sam Raimi’s Dibbuk Box

He’s just gotten done stalking Hillary Swank in THE RESIDENT, and now Jeffrey Dean Morgan is staying in the horror genre, albeit as a victim rather than an antagonist.

Morgan is set to star in the oddly named DIBBUK BOX which is being produced by Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert through Ghost House productions with Danish director Ole Bornedal at the helm.

So what the hell is this “Dibbuk” anyway?

Morgan will star as a recently divorced father whose youngest daughter becomes strangely connected to an antique wooden box she purchased at a yard sale. As his daughter’s behavior becomes more erratic, the father senses a dark presence building until he discovers that the box was built to contain a dibbuk — a dislocated spirit that inhabits and ultimately devours its human host.

So like, PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, in box form. Also, the movie has the annoying badge of being “inspired by true events,” meaning at some point someone believed there was a demon in a box messing with them.
