CHAPMAN BROS. HORROR FILM ANNOUNCED
The Guardian reports that the artists Jake and Dinos Chapman plan to bring their disturbing vision — as evidenced by the fiberglass sculpture “Zygotic acceleration, biogentic, de-sublimated libidinal model” from 1995, pictured here — to cinemas by writing and directing a feature-length horror movie for FilmFour.
“Unsurprisingly, given the nature of their art, the Chapmans are big fans of horror. ‘When Jake and I were growing up one of the most interesting and extreme areas of culture was horror films,’ said Dinos. ‘They coloured a lot of people’s experience. A lot of 1970s horror films had a nihilistic and bleak outlook on life compared with contemporary ones. They didn’t portray a world of hope.”
