EXCL: One-Sheet, First Details for Growl

Sxv'leithan Essex, music video director and writer behind Bled, is sharpening his claws for Growl, a horror film he'll write and direct for Peerless Street Productions. He'll do so with some producing muscle at his back. Lee Cleary (X-Men: The Last Stand, the upcoming The A-Team) is on board to shepherd the project.

Essex gave ShockTillYouDrop.com an exclusive first look at some teaser art and the synopsis:

"A traveling underground fight club called 'The Brawlers' arrive at a derelict ghost town tucked away in the Colorado Rockies. They meet the town's only residents, the Maxilla family who want to buy on to the fight card. But the Maxilla family's true intentions for the Brawler crew is soon revealed in teeth and claws. Some will be hunted, some will be feed, and some will become part of the family...whether they like it or not."

Shooting begins in 2010 with a release anticipated for 2011. Early casting buzz is that Kiefer Sutherland (Mirrors) is being courted to star.

I checked out this dude's video for Five Finger Death Punch at MTV. If this film looks anything half as vicious as that video... I'm there.

WHY? What happened to people getting jobs as a director because they worked hard, paid some dues and deserve it. Back in the day, peeps like Joe Dante, James Cameron, Francis Ford Copolla, Steven Spielberg and John Carpenter worked hard and learned the craft. Now just make a commercial, be a rapper or make a music video and BAMMO - instant director. And they wonder why movies suck.

Cool poster though!

Sxv'Lei let me interview him and is a total horror fan. It's nice to see someone who loves the genre making these things. Plus, that tattooed mohawk he has is just SICK!

Todd.....

Well maybe that's why they have that Producer Guy with him?

Yeah, and Todd.. David Fincher was a video director... did Madonna videos... everyone starts somewhere. I'd rather see some fresh blood that some douchebag film school snob getting it.

I'm trying to dig for more news on this film... besides this rumor of MMA Fighter Phil Baroni being cast... anyone...?

Sxv'Lei is one of the hardest working guys in hollywood, he has put in his dues and deserves this. I can't wait to see what sick terrors he's going to conjure up.
