Archaia Entertainment's horror comic book "Feeding Ground" will soon be heading to a theater near you soon.
"The Crow" and "American Psycho" producer Edward R. Pressman has nabbed the rights to the graphic novel, Comic Book Resources reports. Alfonso Gomez-Rejon, who will be making his feature film debut with this project, will direct the flick. "Nikita" and "Heroes" scribe Carlos Coto has already penned a script based on the Swifty Lang, Michael Lapinski and Chris Mangun comic of the same name.
Though this will be Gomez-Rejon's first time directing a movie on his own, he's had plenty of experience in the industry working as second-unit director on movies like "Argo," "Babel" and "The Eagle." He's also directed episodes of "Glee" and "American Horror Story," so it's clear he knows how to deal with drama and horror.
And "Feeding Ground" certainly has elements of both. The story follows a "coyote" named...

It’s the first week of May and you know what that means, The Avengers in theaters kicking off the summer movie season on May 4, which is also Star Wars Day, and Free Comic Book Day, Saturday May 5. Fcbd has capitalized on the first weekend of May because of what seems like an annual release of a Marvel movie and hopefully there will be plenty of interest in stories starring Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, but we would be irresponsible to pass up the opportunity to showcase all of the other comic book publishers and diverse selection of comics to choose from that will be made to sample in the form of free comics, as well as hopefully well-stocked selections of their catalog at your local comic book shop, which you can find by dialing 1-888-comic-shop or visiting the Comic Shop Locator website.
