Wanna hear a scary campfire story?

Marshmallow–a new horror-s/f flick–heads into production in a couple of weeks with several cast members on board, according to a report on Deadline. No release window has been announced.

The film–directed by Daniel DelPurgatorio (Body(s)) from a screenplay by Andy Greskoviak (Black Friday)–stars Corbin Bernsen (The Dentist), along with Kue Lawrence, Kai Cech and Max Malas.

Set at a secluded summer camp, the movie follows Morgan (Lawrence), a timid 12-year-old, who “is thrust into a waking nightmare when a once-fabled campfire tale becomes real,” according to the synopsis.

As a mysterious figure descends upon the camp, Morgan and his new friends “must embark on a treacherous journey and uncover a sinister reality buried beneath the surface–one that will test their resilience and unravel the very fabric of their reality.”

Warner Davis and Todd Friedman are producing the film, with Robert Kurtzman handling the special effects.
