LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - The buying frenzy of the Sundance Film Festival continued into the wee hours Tuesday when Magnolia Pictures entered final negotiations for the horror film "The Signal" after its midnight screening.
The indie company is said to be purchasing the North American, U.K. and Australian rights for around $2.3 million, though Magnolia would not confirm the sale as some deal points remain outstanding.
From writers/directors David Bruckner, Jacob Gentry and Dan Bush, "The Signal" centers on a mysterious transmission which invades every cell phone, radio and TV in the city, turning its inhabitants into killers.
"The Signal" will mark the second purchase for Magnolia and its largest acquisition at a festival. The Mark Cuban-owned studio landed the first sale of the confab with the documentary "Crazy Love" picked up late Saturday.
