We haven’t heard anything about THE BODY since May, when we told y’all about the new project, which comes from Spanish fright factory Rodar y Rodar (THE ORPHANAGE, JULIA’S EYES, PARANORMAL XPERIENCE 3D). A mystery/suspense film with Hitchcockian overtones, THE BODY today gets a new synopsis and some promo art, which you can see to the right.

While fleeing in panic, a man is knocked over by a lorry. When the police arrive they discover that he is the NIGHT WATCHMAN at a morgue near the site of the accident. When they enter his workplace they find that one of the bodies, MAYKA VILLAVERDE, a society personality, has disappeared from room 3.

THE BODY is currently in pre-production with Oriol Paulo sitting in the director’s chair. Paulo was the co-writer on JULIA’S EYES, and that film’s director, Guillem Morales, worked on THE BODY’s screenplay. So it’s not a stretch to say that this one comes from the dudes who brought us JULIA’S EYES!

Paulo’s film will come out at some point in 2012.
