Pop-singer-turned-rom-com-actress Mandy Moore is making her leap into the horror genre in Buried writer Chris Sparling’s directorial debut Falling Slowly. Joining the 26-year-old babe will be “LOST” and 300 star Rodrigo Santoro.

The duo will play a a couple haunted by a demonic force squatting in their new apartment. While this premise is definitely old-hat (like using the term “old-hat”), I can only hope Sparling draws inspiration from the 1985 classic ghost story School Spirit and shows us the poltergeist yanking Moore’s towel away when she steps out of the shower.

In Moore news, the busty vocalist’s throat will next be voicing the character of Mara in Disney XD’s new animated series “Tron: Uprising.” The show is set to debut sometime next year and will also include the vocal talents of Elijah Wood, chronic-masturbator Paul Reubens, and genre icon Lance Henriksen.

Sparling, whose Buried script won the National Board of Review award for Best Original Screenplay, also penned director David Brooks’ upcoming  feature film debut ATM, starring the lovely Alice Eve.
