Wayne Kramer, director of "The Cooler" and this weekend’s "Running Scared," will write and direct his next flick for Weinstein Co. It’s a horror flick called "Evilseek" that’ll star Thomas Jane as a suicide victim who becomes a pawn of nasty ol’ Satan.
Says Variety: "The Weinstein Co. has acquired "Evilseek," a supernatural thriller that Wayne Kramer wrote and will direct. Thomas Jane is set to star.
Kramer has committed to make the film his next directing assignment, and the plan is to shoot later this year.
Jane will play a cop so demoralized by the handiwork of a serial killer that he commits suicide. Satan uses the cop’s body as a vessel, inheriting a disgruntled ex-wife, a promiscuous 15-year-old daughter, a lesbian partner and some of the cop’s dogged determination to catch the killer."
