Bad Bloom: Vera Farmiga to star in and produce horror fairy tale

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Vera Farmiga has been involved with a good amount of horror projects over the years – Orphan, Conjuring Universe films, the Bates Motel television series – and now she has signed on to add another horror title to her résumé. Farmiga will star in and produce Bad Bloom, a "horror fairy tale" that will mark Bryce McGuire's feature directorial debut.

Bad Bloom will center on 

a family living in isolation on a remote island to keep an unknown creature at bay. Their tightly-guarded reality begins to unravel when one of the children learns the monster they feared is not the monster they envisioned.

That description sort of brings to mind M. Night Shyamalan's The Village. We know what the twist was there, so hopefully Bad Bloom has something very different in store for us.

Authentic Management Productions' Jon Rubinstein and Galt Niederhoffer will be producing the film with Ruminant Films' Renn Hawkey.

Bad Bloom is expected to start filming sometime in the second half of 2021. I'm a big fan of Farmiga, and I'm glad to hear she'll be doing more horror.
