This mouse isn’t clowning around.
Variety shared their exclusive first look at Terrifier star David Howard Thornton as Steamboat Willie in their upcoming film Screamboat.
“I’m so excited to share our mischievous monster mouse with the world. Screamboat is my way of paying homage to Disney while putting a sinister, yet comedic twist on the classic,” said writer-director Steven LaMorte. “Watching David Howard Thornton bring Steamboat Willie to life with the magicians at Quantum Creation FX has been nothing short of amazing — he’s hilarious and murderously entertaining. I can’t wait for audiences to meet Willie and experience the chaos we’ve created.”
The official synopsis of the film reads “Screamboat follows a group of New Yorkers on a late-night ferry ride that turns deadly when a mischievous mouse begins a rampage, targeting unsuspecting passengers. The unlikely crew must band together to thwart the murderous menace before their relaxing commute turns into a nightmare.”
In addition to Thornton, Screamboat also features Allison Pittel, Tyler Posey, Amy Schumacher, Jesse Posey, Jesse Kove, Kailey Hyman, Rumi C Jean-Louis, Jarlath Conroy, Charles Edwin Powell, Brian Quinn, and Joe DeRosa.
The film is expected to be released in April. Stay tuned to Horror News Network for more on Screamboat.
