More than a year since its announcement, the much-awaited horror film, Screamboat, is set to land on the big screen this spring. Directed, produced, and co-written by Steven LaMorte, the slasher horror film is a re-imagination of the 1928 animated short, Steamboat Willie, by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks, which marked the public debut of Mickey Mouse and Minnie. And now, 97 years later, the fan-favorite cartoon mouse is a murderous antagonist in the upcoming horror adaptation, which will likely alter your perception of the cute Disney character forever. Screamboat follows a group of New Yorkers on a ferry who get attacked by a monstrous killer mouse, turning their relaxing commute into a nightmare. As LaMorte describes it, the film follows “the story of a late-night ferry ride in New York City where commuters and deckhands and all the usual passengers are attacked by a murderous and mischievous mouse who is mean, tiny, and loves getting up to no good.”
