Get ready stateside filmgoers, because the “phoners” (aka “crazies”) are coming to the Us. Stephen King fans know that the master of macabre doesn’t like using cell phones. His 2006 novel, Cell, is a cautionary tale about what can go wrong by pressing portable phones to our ears and keeping them close at hand in our pockets, and its unflinching subject matter contains flocks of murderous lunatics that would be right at home in Danny Boyle’s 28 Days Later, George A. Romero’s The Crazies, or Simon Clark’s Blood Crazy.

While promoting their new movie Lovely Molly here at the San Diego Comic-Con we sat down briefly with producers Mark Ordesky and Jane Fleming, and director Ed Sanchez to get the skinny on the upcoming Bigfoot flick Exists.
Our main focus in Exists was the creature itself which was designed by Spectral Motion," says producer Fleming. "It's basically the kind of effects work you'd find in a big budget movie in our small scale film. Actor Brian Steele plays our creature and he is amazing."
Sanchez shot the film found footage style, his first film of the like since Blair Witch Project and we've been assured that in the movie the creature will be anything but out of focus and hidden. "The creature is front and center and you see a lot it," says Ordesky. "Fans of bigfoot movies are going to be really happy with what we've created."
