Is there any horror staple as solid as a good vampire movie? Panos Cosmatos, the director behind 2018’s “Mandy” will be heading up the upcoming vampire thriller “Flesh of the Gods.” The feature will star Kristen Stewart (“Love Lies Bleeding”) and Oscar Isaac (“Moon Knight”).

“Flesh of the Gods,” is written by Andrew Kevin Walker (“Se7en”) based on a story by him and Cosmatos. Set in Los Angeles during the 1980s, the film follows a married couple, Raoul (Isaac) and Alex (Stewart). The couple leaves their luxury skyscraper condo each evening and head into the city’s electric nightlife. This leads them to cross paths with a mysterious and enigmatic woman and her hard-partying pals. Raoul and Alex become seduced by a glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills, and violence.

“Like Los Angeles itself Flesh of the Gods inhabits the liminal realm between fantasy and nightmare,” Cosmatos said in a statement. “Both propulsive and hypnotic, Flesh will take you on a hot rod joy ride deep into the glittering heart of hell.”
Producers on the film include Adam McKay and Betsy Koch via their Hyperobject Industries production company. Isaac and Gena Konstantinakos will also produce under their Mad Gene Media banner.
“We think it’s wildly commercial and wildly artful,” McKay said. “Our ambitions are to make a movie that ripples through popular culture, fashion, music, and film.”
The film’s crew hopes to begin shooting later this year. We’ll keep you posted on updates about “Flesh of the Gods” as they become available.
