Summit Entertainment has secured Ben Magid’s spec script INVASION (Magid was one of the writers who took a crack at the script for Rogue’s Hack/Slash). Eli Roth (Hostel, Death Proof) and Eric Newman (Slither, Children of Men) will shepherd the project. Roth and Newman are also producing partners on the upcoming horror film Cotton. INVASION is being described as a Cloverfield-esque story.

Plot details are being kept quiet at this time, however, the film reportedly opens with a wicked subway accident in Los Angeles in which the survivors (the film’s protagonists) climb from the wreckage to find the, now “snowy,” city in ruins. What they encounter topside is bodies, mobs of people in a state of panic and acidic “goo.”
