Joey Lauren Adams (Animal, Chasing Amy), Chevy Chase (“Community”), and Bruce Dern (The Hateful Eight) are set to star in writer/director Nyle Cavazos Garcia’s CATnip, a holiday horror thriller involving a horde of feral cats, Deadline reports today.
The indie horror thriller with comedic elements follows as “a struggling family’s fresh start in a run-down apartment building turns into a fight for survival as a horde of feral cats unleashes terror, revealing the dark and deadly horrors lurking within its walls.”
It also happens to be set over Christmas Eve.
It sounds like the apartment building is already stacked, too. The cast also includes Jake Busey, Geoffrey Arend, Keli Price, Lorelei Linklater, Charlotte Kirk, Brooke Bundy, Kylee Levien, and River Jose.
The film’s successful Kickstarter campaign refers to CATnip as “Gremlins for grown-ups.”
The page also includes a longer synopsis that reads, “The Betancourt family has just moved from the projects of New York City to an up-and-coming neighborhood in San Pedro, CA, hoping for a fresh start and better life. Immediately, they feel like outcasts and are not welcomed by their eclectic neighbors as they had hoped.
