Horror Movie Being Filmed in Manchester

An isolated cabin in Manchester in the Case Mountain Recreational area is now the site of a horror film.

Since last week, a film crew from Rocky Hill-based Synthetic Cinema International has been shooting scenes for a movie titled "Animal," which is about teenagers being lured into a creepy lodge, The Hartford Courant reported.

The movie, co-produced by Drew Barrymore's Flower Films, will be filmed in this town-owned piece of property until mid-August, The Courant reported.

Here's a synopsis of the film, according to a post on the state's website:

"When plans for a weekend vacation hit a dead end, a group of close-knit friends find themselves stranded in unfamiliar territory, pursued by a menacing, blood thirsty predator. Holed up in an isolated cabin, tensions mount as long-buried secrets are revealed. As the body count rises, the group must put their differences aside and fight for survival."
