News is a couple of days old, but we still wanted to get it out there. Dark Horse Indie, the independent studio arm of Dark Horse Films, has tapped Kevin Munroe to direct it’s production of War Monkeys.Furthermore, they’ve also tagged Hong-Kong action/comedy star Sammo Hung to star.

The horror-comedy follows two janitors who, during a Christmas holiday, get trapped in an underground research facility after accidentally unleashing military-trained Rhesus monkeys. Hung will play of the janitors who goes head-to-head with the sinister simians.

This project sounds full of cool. Just look at the math:

Monkeys+/-(Anything)= Awesome

Monkeys+Guns+Explosions=Mad box office.

Mr. Munroe’s last project was the 2007 TMNT CG-Movie.
