Fresh off the SXSW buzz for his existential nightmare It Ends (still awaiting release), director Alex Ullom is already diving into his next descent into chaos: 4 X 4: The Event.

According to Deadline, Spooky Pictures and Image Nation have boarded the project, which is being described as a vicious collision of Battle Royale, Saw, and Climax—a blend that promises carnage, psychological collapse, and dance-floor delirium all in one.

Plot details remain locked down for now, but the team behind it is stacked with genre heavy-hitters:

• Steven Schneider (Paranormal Activity, Insidious, Pet Sematary)
• Roy Lee (Weapons, IT, The Ring)
• Adam Hendricks & Greg Gilreath of Divide/Conquer (Black Phone 2, M3GAN)
• Executive produced by Image Nation CEO Ben Ross

With pedigree like that, expect 4 X 4: The Event to swing hard into survival horror territory.

Stay tuned for updates as more blood-soaked details emerge. And keep an eye on Ullom’s It Ends, still waiting in the shadows without a release date—but coming soon.
