No one can deny that this is a pretty original idea though we’re still not too sure what to make of it.
Titled “Squirrels”, we think you can guess what the main focus of the film is on. The preproduction trailer has been released and no joke, “Hold on to your nuts” is the tagline.
The screenplay has been written by Daniel Antoniazzi and Ben Shiffrin.
Here’s the official description for the film:
When a young man’s estranged father is killed under suspicious circumstances, he returns home for the first time in years to get to the bottom of the mystery. Hoping to uncover some logical explanation, he instead finds his mom’s sleazy new boyfriend, a natural gas company buying up the town, an angry female sheriff who happens to be his ex-girlfriend, and an army of flesh-eating squirrels hellbent on destroying everything in their path due to an erosion of their food chain as a result of environmental destruction by the gas company.
We’ve no idea when it’s actually being released but we’ll definitely keep you posted.
