News: What the Fear

Alex Pettyfer to 'Torment' Audiences

Attention anyone who stuffed Alex Pettyfer into a locker back in high school! (And Lord knows there were many of you.) He?s coming back to exact revenge on all of you football-slinging, cheerleader-dating meatheads. From. The. Dead. (And if you didn?t know he died then he?s gonna kill you, resurrect YOU from the dead, and kill you again ? because he?ll be doubly pissed!!). Actually it won?t be Pettyfer (Stormbreaker) himself painting his school a new color in the upcoming horror flick Tormented (said color being red, if you get my meaning) but that?s the idea behind it. According to Variety, it centers on ?a tormented teen who comes back from the dead to dish out his own kind of vengeance upon the kids that once bullied him.? I?m assuming ?his own kind of vengeance? is PC for A LOT OF MURDER! Sounds pretty crazy. The pic was written by Stephen Prentice and will be directed by Jon Wright. Pathe plans to distribute the pic, which will also star April Pearson, Larissa Wilson, Mary Nighy, and Dimitri Loenidas.
