Summit Entertainment has picked up Marc Haimes' dark thriller script "Elevator Men" says The Hollywood Reporter.

The story takes a less romanticized look at human-vampire interactions, an anti-"Twilight" if you like which looks at the sinister side of getting close to something dark.

The creatures play diabolical mind games with people, including one that involves an elevator.

Haimes says:

"It's a reaction to all of these stories now -- TV shows and movies -- that play this kind of romantic, fantastical, sexy aspect of getting involved with monsters. This is the dark, sinister version of what really happens when you decide you're going to get close to really bad things"

Mark Gordon, and Josh McLaughlin will produce.

This is actually a smart move on the studio's part--court all of those Vampire fans--who don't think Twilight was for them--like me...
