10 Movie And TV Spoilers We Didn't Know Last Week

6. A Direction For Apex

Not a great deal is known about the sci-fi thriller film Apex. The movie was originally pitched €“ rather interestingly €“ as €œPredator meets Call of Duty€ which will centre on a Special Ops team sent to retrieve a WMD from North Korea, only to be transported to another world. Sounds rather a lot like the Crysis series, right? Anyway, once in this vague €œother world€ the crack team of troopers will be pitted against a dangerous alien race. After this incredibly imprecise synopsis, we were given far more insight into the project this week when Darren Lynn Bousman was announced as being the film€™s director. Darren Lynn Bousman was once regarded as one of the exciting horror directors on the scene, best known for having directed several of the Saw movies. Bousman€™s direction of Apex announces the fact that the sci-fi film will be far darker than the original synopsis suggested and will likely involve some of the Call of Duty-esque soldiers meeting their demise in unspeakably horrific ways. We will likely receive even more information on Apex at Comic Con in San Diego later this month.
