Comedian Ken Marino, recently seen battling an intestinal demon in BAD MILO, has just joined a more family friendly horror flick: GOOSEBUMPS. Sony’s adaptation of the popular R.L. Stine book series already has Jack Black, Amy Ryan, and Dylan Minnette on board, while Rob Letterman directs.

According to Deadline, Marino will play Coach Carr, the blowhard coach at Greendale High who wades into battle when monsters overrun the school. That’s about the most we know of the film’s plot.
