‘Vampires Of The Velvet Lounge’ – Horror Comedy Cast to Include Stephen Dorff and Mena Suvari

Up next from This Game’s Called Murder writer/director Adam Sherman is Vampires of the Velvet Lounge. Deadline reports today that the cast for the upcoming horror-comedy includes a slew of stars including Blade‘s Stephen Dorff and Mena Suvari.

The horror-comedy is currently filming in Georgia and is said to be in the vein of Shaun of the Dead and From Dusk Till Dawn.

The plot follows “as a coven of the blood-suckers struggles to come to terms with the modern world and their own mortality as they are locked in a battle with a deadly foe.”

Joining Dorff and Suvari are Dichen Lachman (“Severance”), Rosa Salazar (Alita: Battle Angel), Lochlyn Munro (“Peacemaker“), India Eisley (I Am the Night), Sarah Dumont (Scout’s Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse), Mark Boone Jr. (“Sons of Anarchy“), Tom Berenger (Platoon), Timothy V. Murphy (The Fabulous Four), Sherman Augustus (“Stranger Things”) and Tyrese Gibson (Fast & Furious franchise).

“I’m making a modern-day feature with an amazingly talented cast and crew about the most prolific serial killer in history, the historical countess Elizabeth Bathory, in the style of the ’70s and ’80s horror movies that I grew up watching,” Sherman told the outlet. “She believed bathing in the blood of young women would make her live forever, and there’s no physical or scientific evidence that she ever died. I look forward to the day I can share this insane, twisted, and surrealist story with audiences.”

Producers on the project include Marcus Englefield and George Lee for Storyoscopic Films (Animal Crackers). Noémi Santo is co-producing for Adam Sherman Film.

Englefield and Lee added that the film is “a sexy, funny, and original thriller packed with stunts and action that takes viewers on a fun ride. Between Adam’s vision and the stellar performances delivered by our incredible ensemble, we know the film will have strong market appeal both in the U.S. and internationally.”

Stay tuned for more details on the project as they arrive.
