It’s been a while since I’ve seen little animals go bat-shit crazy. You know what I’m talking about, animal exploitation films where rabbits kill people and things like that. Well producer Timur Bekmambetov and writers Daniel Antoniazzi and Ben Shiffrin are pitching a movie called Squirrels and it looks like something you’d watch at midnight while pounding some brews with your boys. Oh and Timur is the guy MGM is looking at to remake Ben Hur, I’d be asking questions now.
The film currently doesn’t have a director and I would assume they are in the financing stages but I’m liking what I’ve seen so far even if it the movie isn’t supposed to be a joke. In the film, “a town [is] under attack by flesh-eating squirrels after a natural gas company buys up a town and destroys their food chain through environmental destruction.”
All I could think of while watching this sales trailer for Squirrels was the South Park Christmas Critters and their bloody orgy. Preview that below if you’re not familiar with it.
What do you think of it?
