Good news from Sundance with word that Newmarket Films has just picked up the rights to Spencer Susser's Hesher. The feature debut from the director of stunning zombie short I Love Sarah Jane, Hesher has been one of the more anticipated titles of the year around here and it's good to know we'll have a fighting chance of seeing it soon. Also good to know is that Newmarket is also in pursuit of Vincenzo Natali's Splice which means that film's distribution saga - US rights have twice been acquired by companies that failed soon after - may be coming to an end.
