Neil Marshall, the director of films such as Dog Soldiers and The Descent has found his next film project with Compulsion. He wrote the script for the movie and it’s said to be a throwback erotic thriller.
Deadline explains that the movie is “Inspired by such notable erotic thrillers of the ’80s and ’90s as Fatal Attraction, Basic Instinct and Single White Female.” The story centers around “the dynamically twisted relationship between two women, as both become embroiled in a series of horrific murders on the island of Malta.”
The movie stars Anna-Maria Sieklucka (365 Days) and Charlotte Kirk (The Lair). Kirk plays Diana, who is described as “a flamboyant and ruthless thief.” Sieklucka takes on the role of Evie, described as “a seemingly innocent young woman with a troubled past and a dark secret.”
The film also stars Zach McGowan (Dracula Untold), Giulia Gorietti (Suburra), Cinzia Monreale (The Beyond) and Harvey Dean (Sea Dragon). Filming begins next week in Malta.
