“World War Z” author Max Brooks’ Bigfoot-themed new book “Devolution,” which hit stores this week, has been picked up by Legendary Entertainment.
Like his earlier book, the narrative unfolds as both a journal and scientific investigation of an event – in this case the ‘Rainier Sasquatch Massacre’. It is dubbed part survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction.
The story is set in a model eco-community town in the shadow of Mt. Rainier that, in the aftermath of a volcanic eruption, is rampaged by ferocious beasts known as the Sasquatch.
Jack Bender and David Leslie Johnson were attached to a previous version of the work but are no longer involved.
