It would appear that the awesome Adam Green (HATCHET, SPIRAL) has decided upon his next project. It’s called FROZEN, and he’s making it for Peter Block’s new production company A Bigger Boat. (How cool is that?) Block used to be at Lionsgate, where he was of course involved with the SAW franchise, as well as projects like FEAR ITSELF and MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN. Now he’s out on his own and it seems like he’s starting off on the right foot.
So what’s this sucker about? The story revolves around three skiers who are stranded on a chairlift and forced to make life or death choices that prove more dangerous than even freezing to death.
Nifty! Here’s what Block had to say, via a press release:“FROZEN is the perfect first project for A Bigger Boat… A high concept thriller with a talented young filmmaker on board. HATCHET proved that Adam can direct fun horror comedy and attract an audience but this project will show his ability to create a realistic, tension filled thriller. I couldn’t be more excited to work with him and his team at ArieScope.”
And here’s Adam Green on the subject: “Anyone who has skied before knows the fear that rushes through their heart when the chairlift momentarily stops… FROZEN will build on such primal fears as ‘heights’ and ‘freezing to death’ and take them to terrifying new levels. It’s an honor to be working with GSFI and Peter Block, a producer who truly gets the horror genre and who knows how to do it right.”
Adam Green is one cool mofo and I wish him the very best. To check out a HATCHET-related interview with him, click it HERE.
