They helped Sam Raimi resurrect the Evil Dead franchise for a new outing, and now writer/director Fede Alvarez and co-writer Rodo Sayagues are back in cahoots with him for some more horror. They’ll all developing **A Man In The Dark **alongside Raimi’s Ghost House partner Rob Tapert.

A Man In The Dark appears to blend The Bling Ring with a horror concept as three teens are on a winning streak of perfectly executed home robberies. But their latest target – a reclusive blind man who has millions of dollars stashed – is going to be much more of a challenge. He’s a psychopath, and soon the trio find themselves fighting for survival.

Backers Good Universe are set to tout this one at the American Film Market next week, no doubt talking up the success that the team had with the **Evil Dead **franchise. They’re still working up another Evil Dead, but it hasn’t quite crawled out of development limbo just yet. Still, a claustrophobic horror thriller sounds like something they can do well in the meantime, and if it captures half the horror of The Bling Ring it will be terrifying indeed.
