Aren’t we overdue for a really good vampire movie? Harley Wallen thought so and so did his friend screenwriter Bret Miller (who also wrote Ash and Bone soon to be released by Deskpop Entertainment) they decided to go big and epic with Beneath Us All that begins as an epic Viking tale before it settles in today’s Maine (as a tip of the hat to Wallen’s favorite Author Stephen King.)

The announcement drew a lot of attention and was reported by Deadline Hollywood and it was a special occasion with this film bringing Whalen and Birch back together again for the first time and on the 30th anniversary of The People Under the Stairs. When asked, Wallen said, “It was pretty much a director’s dream to work with such an amazing and accomplished cast on this film. They really understood and took my vision to another level.”

“I want to make the kind of films you can truly get lost in. It’s important to me that there is beauty even in the most harsh and gruesome scenes! I wanted especially to give Beneath Us All strong visuals because of their previous accomplishments with Ash and Bone and it’s outstanding festival run. Miller and I talked about the Swedish vampire film, Let the Right One In, but also films like Hereditary for some of the time and texture and even 30 Days of Night and more for inspiration.”
