Unlikable rom-com actress Katherine Heigl will produce and star in the kinda dirty-sounding Face Blind. The film marks Heigl’s return to big-screen horror since 2001’s Valentine, in which she costarred with Wild Thing’s babe Denise Richards and “Bones” star David Boreanaz.

Heigl will play a psychologist stricken with prosopagnosia (face blindness), a neurological disorder caused by a lesion in the temporal lobe (that’s the part of the brain that allows us to remember people’s faces, duh.).

According to Deadline, which broke the story, Heigl’s character is stalked by a man who once terrorized one of her patients. Her condition, however, doesn’t allow her to identify the creep, and just ends up making her look crazy.

If Face Blind sounds familiar that’s because it’s pretty much a spot-on rehash of last year’s home-video original Faces in the Crowd, starring Milla Jovovich.
