Rogue Pictures has set an Oct. 29 release date for director Wes Craven’s supernatural-slasher My Soul to Take. The film marks Craven’s return to writing since 1994’s Freddy Krueger vehicle New Nightmare.

The synopsis reads:

In the sleepy town of Riverton, legend tells of a serial killer who swore he would return to murder the seven children born the night he died. Now, 16 years later, people are disappearing again. Has the psychopath been reincarnated as one of the seven teens, or did he survive the night he was left for dead? Only one of the kids knows the answer.

Adam “Bug” Heller was supposed to die on the bloody night his father went insane. Unaware of his dad’s terrifying crimes, he has been plagued by nightmares since he was a baby. But if Bug hopes to save his friends from the monster that’s returned, he must face an evil that won’t rest…until it finishes the job it began the day he was born.

Hmm. Sounds like someone is revisiting the A Nightmare on Elm Street well.

My Soul to Take stars Max Thieriot, Zena Grey, Emily Meade, Nick Lashaway, and Shareeka Epps.

Up next for Craven is Dimension Films’ Scream 4.
