Severin Films has acquired North American rights to the teen comedy DEVOLVED, starring Lindsey Shaw, Robert Adamson, Gary Entin and Chris Kattan and plans a March release to theatres.
The film follows a group of high school teenagers after they’re stranded on an uncharted island off the coast of Mexico. Visualeyes Films produced the project in association with Severin Films and a statement was released:
“With Severin entering the realm of distributing its own productions, we cannot think of a better initial release than DEVOLVED,” said Severin co-founder David Gregory. “It’s the rare teen comedy that actually packs a satirical point within the proceedings.”
Formed in 2006, Severin Films has released BIRDEMIC: SHOCK AND TERROR, the original INGLORIOUS BASTARDS and THE HAIRDRESSERS HUSBAND to date and plans several more releases in 2011, including Alejandro Jodorowsky’s SANTRA SANGRE and Richard Rush’s THE STUNT MAN.
