Relativity Media will distribute the film in the US.

Producer Aaron Ryder had this to say about the project: "We believe this will be to Psycho what Disturbia was to Rear Window, but with the addition of a strong female lead."

The project is being described as "a thriller in the vein of Psycho, aimed at a contemporary young audience."

Based on a story by Jonathan Mostow.

Although it's nice to see Elisabeth Shue back in the acting saddle, these movies sound like they should have been direct to DVD fares.

Jonathan Mostow should be rewriting and pitching his own short film Dr. Dobermind instead of cheapening Psycho by making the horror film's premise star a teen girl who ain't afraid of nothin'. Admittedly, I liked Disturbia more than Rear Window, but that's because I found Rear Window overrated as hell; apply the Disturbia formula to a great movie, and the Disturbia version is not gonna compete.

Now Dr. Dobermind, that was an interesting short that could benefit from a longer version with higher production values (hell, even making it be like Disturbia could turn out interesting). I would personally love to ask Mr. Mostow how he came up with that idea and where he was trying to go with it back in 1985.
