    (IANS)


    Filmmaker David Lynch is all set to make a new horror movie based on a Greek tragedy.

    Lynch, who has directed hits like "Blue Velvet" and "Mullholland Drive", will team up with Werner Herzog to make 'My Son, My Son'. It's a story of a San Diego man who becomes obsessed with Sophocles and kills his mother, reports thesun.co.uk.
    Lynch will flash back scenes of the murder to tell the killer's story. The shooting for the film, which was announced at the Cannes film festival, will begin in March 2009.

    Something to look forward to. The Greek tragedies have so much to offer in themes that are current today.
