Hack/Slash Heading For Television
Tim Seeley and Stefano Caselli's horror comic series Hack/Slash is being developed for television with a script by Swordfish and A Good Day to Die Hard writer Skip Woods. The comic was originally optioned back in 2005 by Adrian Askarieh who will executive produce along with Woods and Ray Ricord.
Hack/Slash centers on Cassie Hack, a woman who symbolizes the cliche of the lone girl who survives at the end of every horror movie. However, the emotionally damaged girl not only survived but has become a killer of killers. Along with a burly protector named Vlad, Hack travels across the country hunting slashers in the vein of Halloween's Michael Myers, Friday the 13th's Jason Voorhees and A Nightmare on Elm Street's Freddy Krueger.
The producers are said to be looking for a directors that can make the show have a dark and gritty feel like The Walking Dead.
