'Lord of the Flies' will be the director's second follow-up take on a classic story following 2018's 'Suspiria'.
The Big Picture Lindsey Anderson Beer is no stranger to a good bit of IP. Known best for her work as a writer behind projects including Netflix’s Sierra Burgess Is a Loser, the scribe will soon make her directorial debut with Paramount+’s Pet Sematary: Bloodlines. The film will serve as a prequel telling of the story and movie, Pet Sematary, first made a classic piece of literature through Stephen King’s 1983 novel.
“It leans so much into psychological horror and it’s so rich in character drama, as you would expect from somebody like him,” Anderson Beer says of the Call Me By Your Name and Bones and All director. “But it’s scary,” she adds, “It gives you so much unease reading it, and I think it taps into a more current version of it than we’ve seen before.”
Having been adapted twice into film format, first by Peter Brook in 1963 and then again by Harry Hook in 1990, Anderson Beer says that Guadagnino will wipe the slate clean and rebuild it with a new set of eyes. “I think some people have tried to tackle that property in a way that doesn’t really resonate to now, and I think that the whole approach has been very fresh and refreshing.”
What Set Luca Guadagnino Up to be the Perfect ‘Lord of the Flies’ Director In 2018, Guadagnino brought audiences a revamped version of Dario Argento’s classic piece of 1977 Italian cinema in Suspiria. Tossing in his own twist and vision, while the project was hit or miss among critics, it garnered heaps of positive feedback for its visual style. Also known for his thrilling horror, Bones and All, the filmmaker has begun to amass a handful of notable horror titles amidst his romantic dramas.
Audiences ready to dig into Anderson Beer’s directorial debut can plan to catch Pet Sematary: Bloodlines on Paramount+ on October 6. Watch Nemiroff's full conversation with Anderson Beer below.
