The Terror of... Paul Bunyan?

If horror movies subscribe to one rule, it’s that any concept or character can be made the subject of a horror movie. No exceptions. This certainly explains Kinetic Film Works’ upcoming project, Bunyan, due out in 2011:


The movie is a dark, contemporary take on the legend of lumberjack Paul Bunyan. Kids at a first time offender's boot camp in Minnesota discover that the legend of Paul Bunyan is real, but much more horrifying than they could have imagined. They incur the wrath of the 15-foot monstrous giant, who was banished from town 100 years ago and thought dead.


I wonder how those kids end up incurring Bunyan’s wrath? Do they hit his blue ox “Babe” with their car on the way to the camp or something?

You know, there was a killer Bunyun statue in Stephen King's It. He just didnt make it to the movie version.
