The Frolic film translation enters into post production!
The following update, complete with production stills, was received directly from Brandon Trenz:

The Frolic
director: Jacob Cooney
producers: Jane Kosek, Jade DeCosta (Wonder Entertainment)
screenwriters: Thomas Ligotti and Brandon Trenz (based on the short story by Ligotti)
starring: Maury Sterling (John Doe); Michael Reilly Burke (Dr. Munck); Jennifer Aspen (Leslie Munck)"The Frolic, based on the short story by Thomas Ligotti, is currently in post-production and is being scored by Grammy-award winner Steve King, longtime engineer and mixer for Eminem and other artists.

Having reviewed an early cut, Ligotti himself described The Frolic as 'magnificent' and 'very much how I saw the story in my head over 25 years ago'.

Post-production work on The Frolic should continue through the summer. Producers Jane Kelly Kosek and Jade DeCosta hope to debut the short film at festivals in early 2007."

I wouldn't at all be surprised if this turned into a cult film and then became very, very famous if its done right.

Do the doctors keep getting younger or do I keep getting older? Don't answer that!
