Deadline reports that the Roger Corman-produced 1982 cult classic slasher horror-thriller Slumber Party Massacre will be getting an upcoming remake! The new version, will be directed by Danishka Esterhazy (The Banana Splits Movie), from a screenplay by Ash Vs. Evil Dead‘s Suzanne Keilly!
According to the article:
The film’s plot is under wraps but is said to be a reimagining of the original (that great tagline: “Close your eyes for a second, and sleep forever”), a seminal example of the teen slasher genre set against the backdrop of a girls basketball team’s sleepover and a crazed killer who starts knocking them off.
Meanwhile, the Slumber Party Massacre remake – starring Hannah Gonera, Frances Sholto-Douglas, Mila Rayne, Alex McGregor and Reze-Tiana Wessels – will debut later this year on SYFY!
