    Matt Reeves Keeps His Vampire Thing Going

    DateTue, April 19, 2011

    It was only last week Matt Reeves got the job to adapt Eight O'Clock in the Morning (itself was previously made into the classic John Carpenter film/Roddy Piper v. Keith David beat-down They Live).

    However Heat Vision says that isn't enough to keep Reeves busy from banging on his keyboard. The Cloverfield helmer will also stick with the vampire genre (Christ, how much longer 'till this fad dies?) post Let Me In with The Passage.

    Ridley Scott will produce and it's set at 20th Century Fox, via their Fox 2000 outlet. The project is an adaptation of the 2009 novel by Justin Cronin. According to the description, the plot is the classic "science gone horribly wrong" theme – this time set in the future and people turning into vampires thanks to a government-sponsored virus.

    Yep, they can turn us into blood-suckers but they can't get us through the DMV any faster. Typical government at work.
