Freaks of the Heartland
October 21, 2008
Overture Film has brokered a deal for David Gordon Green to helm the horror thriller Freaks of the Heartland. Adapted from Steve Niles' graphic novel of the same name, the screenplay has been written by first time scribes Peter Sattler and Geoff Davey. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the project will be co-produced by Green and Dark Horse Entertainment president Mike Richardson. Niles, who also wrote 30 Days of Night, will act as executive producer. Illustrated by Greg Ruth, Niles' 2004 series, set in a rural Middle American town, revolves around Trevor Owen's attempts to protect his "monster" of a younger brother and Gristlewood Valley's other "freaks" from their parents' intentions to destroy them. Green most recently directed Pineapple Express and Snow Angels.

Yup, this was a heaps cool comic miniseries...I'd love it if they got the look just right...could even be animated but probably not.
Very little actually happens in the mini, it's more of a thought provoking tale and rather visually unique. I'll look forward to this.
