The first poster for Dan Simpson?s Born has surfaced today. Now, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the poster art isn?t really all that exciting. It tends to make one think, that with all the ?not so good? art recently coming out, that the artists aren?t really putting much time and effort into creating them. Certainly, they do realize that the cover art is what essentially creates the atmosphere for these films, with the exception of the trailers. Born, co-written and produced by Clive Barker and starring Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly, centers on a clay animator who?s creations begin to take on a life form of their own.

According to 24framespersecond.net, the synopsis taken from the production company?s site: ?A young couple. A quaint English village. A deadly secret. This is the world of Born. Combining elements of The Sixth Sense, The Wicker Man, Rosemary's Baby, and Straw Dogs, Born tells the story of a couple who thought they had found the perfect place to start a family and pursue their professional dreams, only to find themselves caught in a terrifying supernatural plot.

Joe and Vanessa thought they had everything. They've settled in an idyllic English town that will be perfect for both raising their unborn child and for Joe to build his dream claymation workshop. From the local hospitality to the rich red molding clay found in the town quarry, it would seem they've settled in paradise. But something isn't quite right. The locals are almost too friendly, and while using the clay Joe begins to have eerie visions of a young girl's murder. Gradually, the story being told in his animation foreshadows the fate of Joe and Vanessa, leading to a terrifying conclusion.?

Based on the great premise alone, we want to see more about this movie. Production is set to begin this August, in the UK
