South by southwest is currently (pretty much) underway, and in the midst of all the movie premieres – stay tuned to io9 for upcoming reviews – came this bit of news: a horror movie made during quarantine has just been picked up by director Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted, Hardcore Harry) to get the feature film treatment.

This news is coming of DeadlineThe short, Do not look, is based on Animal Crossing and the well-known horrifying idea that things are much, much scarier when they happen while you are alone in the dark. Creator Julian Terry made the short last year, and it’s still available to watch on YouTube after his SXSW arc. Feast your eyes!

SXSW will run through March 20.
