“SATANIC PANIC” casts up with Rebecca Romijn, Hayley Griffith et al.

The gory horror/comedy SATANIC PANIC is getting ready to roll next week in Dallas, Texas, and the starring ensemble has been announced, including a number of familiar genre faces.

Deadline reports that Rebecca Romijn (pictured) from the X-MEN movies and STAR TREK: DISCOVERY will star alongside newcomer Hayley Griffith in SATANIC PANIC. Also in the cast are Ruby Modine (the roommate in HAPPY DEATH DAY), Arden Myrin, Jerry O’Connell, AJ Bowen (THE SACRAMENT), Jordan Ladd (CABIN FEVER), Jeff Daniel Phillips (THE LORDS OF SALEM), Hannah Stocking, Michael Polish, Whitney Moore and Skeeta Jenkins. Romijn pays the leader of a group of suburban Satanists who want to make a pizza delivery girl (Griffith) their latest virgin sacrifice. Chelsea Stardust will direct from a script by Grady Hendrix (author of PAPERBACKS FROM HELL and MY BEST FRIEND’S EXORCISM), based on a story by Hendrix and his MOHAWK co-writer and director Ted Geoghegan. The film is being produced by Cinestate’s Dallas Sonnier and Amanda Presmyk under the Fangoria banner, along with Aperture Entertainment’s Adam Goldworm.
