Arriving next year, Jen and Sylvia Soska's remake of David Cronenberg's classic Rabid is the featured cover story for the new issue of Rue Morgue Magazine. The image used is a rather gruesome one, highlighting the special effeccts work from Masters FX. Check out the cover below!
"The remake will follow Rose, a young woman who, after an accident leaves her scarred beyond recognition, undergoes a radical untested stem-cell treatment. While turning Rose into the belle of the ball, the experimental transformation comes at a price."
Rabid is written by Jen Soska, Sylvia Soska and John Serge, and led by the twin sister horror-movie directors that established a huge following with the 2012 slasher film American Mary. With a modern and relevant spin from the woman’s perspective, and the addition of Laura Vandervoort, the new Rabid is going to be a uniquely chilling, and captivating film.
The film also stars Ben Hollingsworth, Hanneke Talbot (“Playing Dead”), Mackenzie Gray (“Legion”, “Riverdale”), WWE superstar CM Punk, and New York Times best-selling author AJ Mendez.
