Recently, according to foreign media Deadline, the work "Revenge of the Poison Devil", which once became the benchmark of cult films in the 1980s, is about to be remade. Pete Dinraki, the actor who played the little devil in Game of Thrones, will star in the film, playing the protagonist who became a superhero due to an accident. It is reported that the film will be directed and scripted by Macon Blair, director of "Nowhere to Be Home".
The original "Revenge of the Poison Devil" is a cult film that combines science fiction, comedy, thriller and other genres, telling the story of melvin with a gentle temperament, who works as a janitor in a health club and is often bullied by customers, eventually causing him to fall from the second floor into toxic chemical waste. Disfigured and transformed into a deformed creature, he gained power beyond humans, so he decided to take revenge and declare war on the evil forces.
After the release of "Revenge of the Poison Devil" in 1984, it caused a huge response, and then the producers took advantage of the hot iron to shoot three sequels and an animated film in a row, creating a universe around the character of "Poison Devil". In addition to the movies, Revenge of the Poison Devil has also been adapted into musicals and comics. Due to the worrying standard of subsequent films, "Revenge of the Devil 4" was released in 2001 and there was no sequel.
The reason why the producers finalized the little devil DingLaki to star in this film is because Dinglaji has a good experience in comedy and magic dramas. Pete Dingla, who suffers from dwarfism and is only 135cm tall, is popular for "Death at the Funeral". He then starred in Game of Thrones, Avengers 3, and X-Men: Reverse Future, which made him famous.
