US cable network Starz is dipping its toe further into the bloody water of horror mixed with comedy after Ash Vs. Evil Dead. The channel now has Mila Kunis and Rob Zombie developing a show called Trapped.
While Kunis will be producing and Zombie offering his directorial services, Arrested Development veteran Joey Slamon will be on scripting duty after coming up with the idea for the series. The plot apparently takes place during a single night in the home of a wealthy family who are under attack by a murderous cult. There are no details on when it might hit screens – things are only just getting moving, after all – but if it all works out, it’ll be a half-hour mixture of laughs and screams that sounds a little bit like You’re Next: the series.
Kunis, last seen in Jupiter Ascending, will also mix horror and humour in Hell And Back a stop-motion ‘toon that hits American screens on October 2, but doesn’t yet have a confirmed UK date. Zombie’s latest film, 31, which features kidnap victims trying to survive in a deadly game against lethal clowns, is in post-production now and should be hitting cinemas next year.
