One of the most popular horror films from the early 80’s was the memorable THE ENTITY which was based on a true life case that scared those who watched the horrific sight of Barbara Hershey being repeatedly attacked by ghost.

Now it seems its getting a re-boot as DEADLINE are reporting that Heather Graham has signed up to play Doris Bither in Entity Within, a new take on one of the most documented ghost cases on record, with Mimi Rogers also signing up for a role.

The film is to be directed by Nick Simon (The Girl in the Photographs) from a script by Thomas Fenton (Saw IV).

“This film is based on a true story and that truth is chilling,” said GVN’s Head of Production Missy Valdez. “It is an honor and a challenge to bring Doris’s raw and terrifying experiences to the screen with care and dignity. So proud to be part of this film. This is an elevated horror film that blends emotional depth with real-life terror, and we believe it will deeply resonate with both genre fans and new audiences alike.”

“We’re thrilled to be working with Heather Graham again and partnering with Nick Simon to bring Entity Within to Cannes,” added Anthony Buckner, AMP’s Head of Sales, Acquisitions, and Distribution. “This is a high-concept, emotionally resonant horror film that we’re excited to share with international buyers.”
