One of my favorite films of the Tribeca Film Festival this year was Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado’s slasher/comedy, Rabies, the first Israeli horror film. I thought it was a brilliant first feature and one of the best slasher films I’ve seen all year. Well it seems moves are being made on their second feature which, from what I have been told, is going to be very violent, and while I wasn’t able to get much out in the way of details at Tribeca (6 months ago), Twtich was able to score some new details last week about the plot and also found out that the working title is currently SATAN LIVES WITHIN.
You can read below for details on the plot:
Navot – For our next feature we came up with the concept about this teacher at high school who we want to portray as the victim of a police interrogation for some really nasty crime.
Aharon – He’s the suspect in a very gruesome killing who goes free. And we thought for once it would be great to see the outcome of this kind of tragedy upon the suspect, as he tries to get his life back. He was a bible teacher and so this kind of accusation will no doubt be difficult to recover from.James – So he’s been cleared of the crime?Navot – Yes, but due to technical problems.Aharon – Nobody really knows for sure and he has to deal with that.
Navot – We have a temporary title, which is SATAN LIVES WITHIN, but that’s just a working title. However the script is finished and we’ve already handed it out to our actors.
It doesn’t sound like the kidnapping thriller/horror that I was originally told about but maybe that is part of the gruesome crime the guy comitted. It sounds like they have another smart character driven gorefest on their hands so I’m excited to see how this one turns out. I do know that they have a bigger budget for this film so I’m curious to see who will come on board their wild little adventure and where it will go.
