The first trailer dropped for Michael Emanuel's spiritual creature-feature based on the Algonquian Wendigo myth and I'm still trying to figure out if it'll be worth tracking down when it finally arrives. It looks like it's well made and full of some decent creature scares, but the way the promo's cobbled together just isn't doing it any favors.
Synopsis:
A former FBI profiler, now a sheriff of a small town and a single parent of a high school aged daughter, begins to profile a series of unexplained murders only to learn that the monster he's profiling may be himself.
Maneater stars a decent cast in Dean Cain, Conrad Janis ("The Cable Guy"), Stephen Lunsford, Walter Phelan ("House of 1000 Corpses"), Maximillian Roeg and Lacy Phillips ("Pushing Twilight").
Trailer after the break.

In the first episode, the enigmatic persona tells the group, “You’re all here for the same reason”, as the scene shows every profile. “Something, in your life, needs change.” Created by director Steve Sprinkles (director of the best Film for 2006 at the National Film Challenge, Aw Crap!

You know things are askew in Hollywood when Dean Cain joining a film warrants a mention in The Hollywood Reporter. I don’t really know how it’s possible, but for some reason the fact that Cain has signed on for Michael Emanuel’s Maneater is trade-worth information...
Maneater follows a former FBI profiler, now a small town sheriff, who begins to look into a series of murders derived from a local Native American legend. He soon discovers that the monster responsible may be himself.
Conrad Jenis (The Cable Guy), Walter Phalen (House of 1000 Corpses), Lacy Phillips (Pushing Twilight) and Stephen Lunsford will be joining Cain in Emanuel’s directorial debut. This is the second of ten planned independently financed films from Canal Street, the first being The Uninvited, which features most of the same cast.
