The story follows a young man whose estranged father is killed under suspicious circumstances. He returns home for the first time in years to get to the bottom of the mystery. Instead, he finds his mom’s sleazy new boyfriend, a natural gas company buying up the town, an angry female sheriff who happens to be his ex-girlfriend, and an army of flesh-eating squirrels hellbent on destroying everything in their path.

The search for a director is currently underway with the cast expected to sign shortly.

Daniel Antoniazzi and Ben Shiffrin wrote the script based on an idea by Bekmambetov.

This sounds sooo freaking cool!!!! You gotta love the horror genre!
