Do you guys remember when I told you guys about MONSTER LOVE last month? Well, director Joe Dante (GREMLINS, THE HOWLING) opened up to Fango about the flick, on which he is currently in pre-production:
“It’s essentially ROMERO AND JULIET. You have a group of werewolves who are running wild in Paris, equal parts skater boys and soccer hooligans. The leader of the pack is Pete, the hero, and he encounters Maggie, this modern age tomgirl dressing in black boots and a leather jacket who also happens to be a vampire. They have an encounter in the park one night and fall in love. Maggie is from an older, European, more upper-class group of vampires who don’t approve, and the other werewolves don’t approve, so our heroes have to go through a lot of machinations to try to stay together.”
The horror/comedy is penned by Greg Pak (PLANET HULK). Elizabeth Stanley and Frederic Brost are producing, with Darclight Films is overseeing the picture. What do you think?
