First Look: Eliza Dushku In ‘Open Graves’

Now that Dollhouse is already gettin’ cold in the grave , it’s time to look forward to the next project to feature Eliza Dushku … according to Dushku herself, she’s already filmed a horror film called Open Graves . The only problem is, no one is entirely sure when or even if the movie will ever see the light of day. Here is our first look at promo pics of Eliza in Open Graves along with what little info about the film we have to go on : Eliza Dushku told SCI FI Wire that she thinks her next film is a supernatural horror outing called Open Graves. Why “thinks” rather than “knows”? Well, Open Graves is listed on IMDB as having been completed, but the star of Fox’s Dollhouse has no idea what’s happening with the long-finished project. “I don’t know,” Dushku said in an interview to promote Dollhouse. “I did a film in Spain, but I don’t where or how or when it’ll be released. It was a horror movie” … Dushku said that the film was directed by Alvaro de Arminan, one of Pedro Almodovar’s proteges, making his feature-helming debut. “He sent me this script,” she said. “This other actor [Mike Vogel of Cloverfield] that I was collaborating with, we shipped off to Spain to shoot a movie about these American students that are living [and surfing] in Spain, and they come upon this creepy game [which resembles a Ouija board]. And, one by one, the game starts killing these kids.” Dushku said that she is uncertain about the film’s fate. “I don’t know,” she said. “To be honest, I had just talked to the director, and he seemed like an interesting chap. And spending three months in northern Spain sounded like a nice vacation and adventure as well. But I don’t really know how it came together.” Open Graves, which was previously titled Mamba, is still without a distributor. I’m intrigued that this film was directed by an apprentice of Almodovar but the premise sounds more like a movie that Sarah Michelle Gellar would star in … which is not a good thing. Still … I’d check out any film that stars the lovely Ms. Dushku . After the jump, check out a few more promo photos from Open Graves along with a trailer for the film … HMMMM … I can’t tell if I’m intrigued or uninterested. The premise sounds scary but it all really comes to execution. I guess we’ll have to wait and see if this film finds a distributor that will release it to theaters … or straight to DVD. Does this movie look/sound appealing to you? [ Source ]
