According to Hollywood Reporter, French director Alexandre Aja (known for directing the distinguished High Tension), will be in charge of directing Crawl, l'horror prodotto da Sam Raimi e acquistato da Paramount Pictures.
The story of Crawl vede protagonista una donna che, nel tentativo di salvare il padre da un uragano di livello 5, si ritrova intrappolata in un'abitazione allagata. Qui, non solo dovrà affrontare i pericoli provocati dal tornado ma dovrà anche difendersi da alligatori famelici.
The screenplay of Crawl is signed by Alexandre Aja. The director, in addition to High Tension (2003), he also has other horror films behind him such as the remake of The hills have eyes (2006), Reflections of fear (2008) and Piranha 3D (2010).
In the production of Crawl Craig Flores also appears.
Sam Raimi, in addition to being the author of the cult The House (1981) and L'armata delle tenebre (1992), directed Drag Me to Hell (2009) and is one of the creators (along with Ivan Raimi and Tom Spezialy) of Ash vs. Evil Dead, a television series now in its third season and recently canceled.
