Sure, we’ve seen a few films in the past few year – including Incident at Loch Ness – but I’m talking about a genuinely scary monster movie.
Well, it appears The Woman in Black‘s James Watkins is going to shepherd a Loch Ness project along with the newly-established Altitude Film Entertainment from Will Clarke.
According to Screen Daily:
“The first film under that joint company will be The Loch, a new take on the Loch Ness Monster myth. Watkins is currently writing with Simon Duric, who will direct.
Of Watkins, Clarke says: Hes not just in the horror genre, hes got an intelligent approach to narrative and hes very commercial minded in terms of the way he tells stories as a screenwriter and also as a director, and now as a producer.
Duric directed a short film, however, he’s best known for his storyboard work on films such as Eden Lake, The Descent: Part 2 and Hanna. He also worked on Prometheus.
