Scooper ‘Spidersman’ wrote in with a translation of the story for Man-Thing as listed on the funding company Screenland Movieworld…
I was surfing the net today looking for news on the upcoming movie Man-Thing and I came across a German site called screenland-movieworld.com, which is a funding company. They and Fierce Entertainment are helping Lions Gate Studios in producing Man-Thing. At this site there’s a plot outline and the following is a rough translation:
“Kyle Williams saw his return as a sheriff to his hometown of Baywater as a career opportunity.
What he couldn’t have foreseen was the reawakening of an ancient power in the swampy river branch – a power as old and horrible as the swamp itself. A spirit called “Mantokwe” by the natives – the MAN-THING.
Frederick Schist, owner of a resident oil firm, has lied and betrayed the local natives – and is now exploiting their land. To cover up his machinations, he has killed two men and left their bodies to the swamp.
Kyle must now choose between what is right and a career supported by Schit’s great influence and power. He must find the power to face his past, the demonic MAN-THING and survive…
