Eli Roth and 50 Cent Team Up To Produce Three Original Horror Movies THE GUN, TRACKMASTER, and CREATURE HOUSE

Director Eli Roth (Cabin Fever, Hostel) is partnering up with rapper Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson to produce three original horror film projects together titled The Gun, Trackmaster, and Creature House. They are developing these films with 3BlackDot and the films are said to focus on BIPOC representation. Electromagnetic Productions will also produce alongside Jackson's G-Unit Film & Television.

Kirkland Morris (BMF) will be writing The Gun. The story for that follows "a young man with a bright future, who seeks to get revenge for his father's murder, he finds a gun that is haunted by an evil force."

Justin Calen-Chenn (Bel-Air) will be writing Trackmaster. That story follows a “burgeoning rap duo that uses a beat of mysterious origins in their new single and accidentally unleashes an ancient spirit that brutally murders anyone who hears it. After the young rappers make this discovery, the race is on to stop the song's release."

Dallas Jackson (Blumhouse's Thriller) and Kevin Grevioux (Underworld) are writing Creature House. In that film, "After the untimely death of a legendary make-up and visual effects guru, a group of his friends and foes gather at his studio, only to find themselves trapped in the artist's horror movie museum as the exhibition creatures supernaturally come to life."

Jackson said in a statement: "It was extremely important to me that through my horror slate we focus on increasing BIPOC representation. I feel like I have the best team in place here to do so."

Roth added: "I'm a huge fan of 50 as an artist and producer and am so excited to bring these stories to life. The whole team has put together an exciting trio of films which will terrify and thrill audiences globally.”

Regi Cash, 3BlackDot CEO, shared: "We partner with innovative creators to tell stories of high cultural impact that are often overlooked. This horror film slate, in partnership with 50 Cent and Eli Roth, couldn't be closer to the mark. We look forward to adding to the canon of thrilling black horror."
