Posted on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 by Peter Sciretta
Coming off of the growing cult goth musical Repo! The Genetic Opera, music video turned SAW II, III and IV director Darren Bousman has found a future beyond the horror movie genre. Bousman’s next film, Akula, is a heist thriller set in a submarine. Scripted by Mark Distefano, the story follows a career criminal who teams up with a female DEA agent determined to pull off a diamond heist on a submarine in constant motion, 600 meters below the surface of the ocean.
