Grace Van Dien, the Stranger Things star, will appear in another survival thriller produced by the makers of Pet Sematary.

The directors of Pet Sematary, Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer, have found their next project in The Swallow, a survival thriller about a group of youngsters who are abandoned in a perilous forest.

The project will be produced by James Harris and Mark Lane of Tea Shop Productions (47 Metres Down, Fall) and John Finemore of Lost City (Watcher). The film will be starring Grace Van Dien.

The filmmakers also wrote the screenplay for The Swallow, which was previously named to the “Bloodlist” of the year’s best horror works.

Architect has started global sales ahead of the EFM and is co-representing US rights with Verve Ventures. Filming is slated for the summer, and additional casting is now happening.

Van Dien, who rose to prominence with the NBC series The Village, Hulu’s The Binge, and her breakout performance as Chrissy in Stranger Things, portrays Ziggy, who goes camping with four friends in a beautiful remote forest.

Trespassing into an off-limits area unleashes an eerie terror in the woods and a voracious hunger from within the Earth.

Soon, the ground is attempting to swallow everything and anybody it comes into contact with, leaving Ziggy and her friends with nowhere to flee because every trembling step they take could be their last.

Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer return to direct the film, following their remake of Stephen King’s Pet Sematary, which grossed $113 million for Paramount worldwide. Their debut album, Starry Eyes, earned a medal at SXSW.

“The Swallow is a sleek, nasty horror picture that never lets off the gas. Essentially, one long set piece of tension and primal dread that simply keeps building. Kölsch and Widmyer stated the film challenges people to watch it all the way through.
