Blumhouse, a leader in horror, has officially entered into a first-look deal with Tiny Onion, the production company founded by acclaimed comic creator James Tynion IV. This significant agreement commences with the development of an adaptation of Tynion's award-winning comic series, 'Exquisite Corpses.' The project is slated for both film and animation formats.
The new partnership builds upon the positive momentum from the ongoing collaboration between Blumhouse Atomic and Tiny Onion on the adaptation of Tynion's horror comic, 'Something Is Killing the Children.' The 'Exquisite Corpses' comic, created with artist Michael Walsh, features a compelling narrative about a serial killer battle royale and has sold over one million copies in its initial eighteen months.
'Exquisite Corpses' depicts a macabre annual game among America's wealthiest families, where their chosen killers engage in a fight to the death. The comic universe has already expanded to include three spin-off series, with another overarching mini-series planned for next year. This deal signifies a strategic expansion for both Tynion's intellectual property and Blumhouse's slate of horror content.
