Director Takashi Shimizu is set to helm New Line Cinemas
Parasyte, says Variety.
The feature sees alien spores land on Earth and start taking over human bodies. One young man manages to isolate his "parasyste" in his left arm. Left part human and part alien, the young man and "Lefty" -- an alien arm with a will of its own -- are the planet's sole protection from the sinister invasion.
