Razorback helmer takes on sharks
Russell Mulcahy’s career might be taking him all over the map – from Resident Evil: Extinction to the upcoming Give ’em Hell, Malone – but I’ll always remember him for the Australia’s nature-run-amok entry Razorback. He’s aligning himself with Arclight Films for a new thriller that takes him back to similar territory – sorta – with Bait. Twitch has the synopsis:
In a sleepy coastal resort community, shoppers at an underground supermarket find themselves terrorized by a crazed bandit when the unimaginable occurs⦠A monstrous freak tsunami swallows the town. Now trapped inside a flooded supermarket with an armed maniac and rushing water threatening to entomb them all in a watery grave, the imprisoned band of survivors discover theyâre not alone. The tsunami has brought some unwanted visitors from the depths. As the waters rise they must overcome not only the threat of drowning, but another threat, just as deadly and far more bloodthirsty… Packs of hungry tiger sharks.
Here’s the kicker. Mulcahy’s doing this in 3-D. A production start hasn’t been revealed.
