The new film "We Are What We Are" is a horror-drama hybrid, a suspenseful tale of a tight-knit family struggling to hold itself together in the face of changing times and the dwindling of long-held traditions. Also, they eat people. Directed by Jim Mickle, who co-wrote the screenplay with regular collaborator Nick Damici, the film is a remake of Mexican director Jorge Michel Grau's 2010 "Somos Lo Que Hay" (We Are What We Are). Opening Sept. 27 in Los Angeles, the film premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival and also played at Cannes. Yet when producers Mickle had been working with on another project suggested a "Somos Lo Que Hay" remake, the director's initial response was not to do it.
