Heather Graham (Boogie Nights) will play Doris Bither in Entity Within, based on one of the most documented supernatural cases in U.S. history, Deadline reports.
Set in 1974 suburban Los Angeles, a single mother is violently attacked by an unseen force in her home. With no one believing her, she turns to a team of paranormal researchers.
Nick Simon (The Girl in the Photographs) directs from a script by Thomas Fenton (Saw IV). Steven Schneider (Insidious, Paranormal Activity) produces.
Mimi Rogers (Ginger Snaps), Morgan Peter Brown (Absentia), and Kevin Keppy (Smile) also star.
GVN Releasing is producing the film and is handling U.S. distribution, with Alliance Media Partners repping the film at the upcoming Cannes Market.
“This film is based on a true story and that truth is chilling,” said GVN’s Head of Production Missy Valdez. “It is an honor and a challenge to bring Doris’s raw and terrifying experiences to the screen with care and dignity. So proud to be part of this film. This is an elevated horror film that blends emotional depth with real-life terror, and we believe it will deeply resonate with both genre fans and new audiences alike.”
“We’re thrilled to be working with Heather Graham again and partnering with Nick Simon to bring Entity Within to Cannes,” added Anthony Buckner, AMP’s Head of Sales, Acquisitions, and Distribution. “This is a high-concept, emotionally resonant horror film that we’re excited to share with international buyers.”
The Bither case previously inspired Frank De Felitta‘s 1978 book The Entity, which was adapted into the 1982 film of the same name starring Barbara Hershey.
