1970s Horror Movie ‘The Reincarnation of Peter Proud’ Being Remade by David Goyer and Village Roadshow

Suppose you knew who you had been in a previous life…

A new take on 1975’s psychological horror movie The Reincarnation of Peter Proud is on the menu, oddly enough, with David Goyer‘s Phantom Four Films behind the project.

Deadline reports that Phantom Four has joined forces with Village Roadshow for a multi-year, first-look deal to develop feature films, including The Reincarnation of Peter Proud.

Sean Durkin will write and direct the new take.

In the original movie…

“When college professor Peter Proud (Michael Sarrazin) begins experiencing flashbacks of an earlier life, he’s mysteriously drawn to a place he’s never been to, but which seems familiar and where he soon finds his previous incarnation’s wife.”

Director J. Lee Thompson’s movie was based on the 1973 novel by Max Ehrlich.
