Universal Developing Another Remake of CAT PEOPLE

Val Lewton's Cat People first clawed onto the screen way back in 1942. Since then it has had several incarnations, it got a sequel in 1944 and was remade by Paul Shrader in 1982. The original was even selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.  Now Universal Home Entertainment feels it's time to remake the classic once again.  

The film will be produced by Aaron Ryder (Momento, Donnie Dark, Wrong Turn) and was penned by Ravel Centeno-Rodriguez with a re-write from Todd Stein.  I kind of enjoyed the 1982 version, I've yet to see the original or sequel. This is going to be a direct-to-video release as it's mentioned "Universal Home Entertainment", are you sick and tired of the big studios jsut trying to cash in anyway they can?

Plot:

The story follows the last two surviving "cat people" in the world who have been busy feasting off the male population in Miami. They seek a Cat Man to mate with to ensure the future of their kind.
