Stephen McHattie, Barbara Niven and Peter Mooney play the deranged kinfolk who Greene's character encounters on her quest to find the father she's never known.

Horror filmmaker Lee De Marbre is directing the tentatively titled film from a screenplay by Sean Hogan and Christine Conradt for producers Rob Menzies, Donald Osbourne and Curtis Crawford of Ottawa-based Zed Filmworks ("The Dead Sleep Easy")..

Greene's next big-screen role is in the December release "Twilight," the vampire thriller adaptation of the best-selling young adult novel. McHattie will be seen in another anticipated cult project, the Warner Bros. film "Watchmen." Mooney stars in the ABC Family series "Falcon Beach," and Niven has appeared in numerous telefilms.
