Matt Reeves to direct The Passage

Another Matt Reeves-directed project is official, according to Deadline. After signing with Universal to write and adapt Eight O’Clock in the Morning (They Live) (here), the Cloverfield director is heading back to dark vampire tales again with The Passage.

Based on a book by author Justin Cronin, the story follows terminally ill patients that become healthy after they are bitten by bats in South America. The government conducts secret tests on human subjects to see if the virus can cure illness. The result is an apocalyptic unleashing of bloodthirsty vampire test subjects that include death row inmate.

Sound good? Thought so.
