After a heated bidding war, Relativity Media has bought the rights to the dark thriller, The Low Dweller, for which Ridley Scott and Leonardo Dicaprio will once more team up. Hollywood Reporter explains that the film is set in Indiana, in the mid eighties, and follows DiCaprio's character, an ex-con who tries to get himself back into society but finds someone from his past is trying to settle a score. This doesn?t sound too horrific, we admit, but it does have the same air as A History of Violence, which was damn chilling, and Scott, of course, made a name for himself with thrillers like Alien and Blade Runner--so the man can do dark!
