Chasing the Dead - the movie...?


This isn't exactly new news, but it's exciting nonetheless, thought I'd share it with you --

For immediate release:

Joe Schreiber's horror-thriller novel Chasing The Dead has been optioned by Elizabeth Fowler of Clear Pictures Entertainment and Matt Scott and Tim Westland of Fortune Moon to be developed into a feature film. Schreiber is author of the mega-popular Star Wars: Death Troopers as well as the prequel book, Red Harvest.

Set over the course of a single night, Chasing the Dead is a fast-paced, ferociously tense supernatural thriller. A tableau of shock and horror, death and destruction that pays homage to Stephen King, Chasing The Dead tells the story of a young woman who must travel a twisted route through a freak snow storm, and her own haunted past, in order to save her daughter from a supernatural murderer.


Cool, huh? I'd definitely like to see this one at the drive-in, on a double bill with Eat the Dark...

I just finished reading the book you wrote based on the Supernatural series. I thought yours was by far the best in the series. I realize that it's not Hemingway, but this kind of writing has it's function. For me, it is a guilty pleasure ;)

Thanks, KC! It was a lot of fun to write Sam and Dean. I'm really glad you dug the book!
