QuoteEXCLUSIVE: VMI Worldwide is taking Boop, a horror take on the classic Betty Boop cartoon, to the American Film Market.

VMI will handle world sales on Boop.

Furst Class Productions will produce the film, which is being described as a "re-imagining of 1930s cartoon icon Betty Boop but told through a genre lens." The synopsis reads: A team of horror podcast investigators breaks into an abandoned theater to discover the hauntings of the starlet once known as Boop. A simple investigation turns into a horrific blood bath as they fight to escape the murderous Boop, as she is out for revenge.

The film stars Katisha Shaw, Spencer Breslin, Eva Hamilton, Colton Tran, and Devanny Pinn as Boop. Jose Prendes and Josh Ridgway wrote the film, and Jared Cohn will direct. Jarrett Furst, Katisha Shaw, Devanny Pinn, and Jessica Russo are serving as producers.

"Getting your classic cartoon told as a horror film is still mind-blowing, but what sets Boop apart from all the other horror IPs is her motivation," Jessica Russo, COO of VMI, said in a statement. "Boop's dark history is extremely grim, but this telling allows her to get her power back. A true testament to feminism led by a predominantly female team."

Jarrett Furst added: "When I learned this cartoon was entering the public domain, I knew there was something special waiting to happen. This team—brimming with extraordinary talent both in front of and behind the camera—absolutely blew me away. I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Get ready for a wildly violent, ridiculously fun ride... and trust me, this is only the beginning."

We already know this is going to suck. No need to shine a future turd.
Is it October yet?
