Play Dead–a new horror entry from Voltage Pictures–is now in post-production, getting ready to launch at Cannes, according to a report on Screen Daily.
The film–directed by Patrick Lussler (My Bloody Valentine 3D) from a screenplay by Adam Mason and Simon Boyes (Blood River)–stars Bailee Madison (The Strangers: Prey at Night), along with Jerry O’Connell, Anthony Turpel, Chris Butler, Chris Lee and Jorge-Luis Pallo.
