‘Paranormal Activity 5’ Is Going to Be In 3-D (Exclusive)
Some last second holiday news as we head off to go eat some turkey.
We have just confirmed our scoop from this past July that Paramount Pictures’ Paranormal Activity 5: The Ghost Dimension is being fast-tracked. In fact, we’ve learned that filming has already begun with plans on getting the sequel into theaters by the original March 13, 2015 date.
Greg Plotkin is directing from a screenplay by Jason Pagan and Andrew Stark.
The interesting bit, though, is that the plan is to release PA5 in 3-D, and will be done using post-conversion technology. It can only be assumed that the 3-D is specifically for the “Ghost Dimension”?
The fact that Paramount is toying with the technology for PA means Friday the 13th could be next…
Some plot details were teased in this leaked casting breakdown from this past January.
Norway’s deepest fjord isn’t just unleashing a mythic monster in Kraken, but its monstrous deep sea parasites as well.
Watch our exclusive clip below, which introduces the skittering, skin-crawling aquatic menaces on the attack.
Samuel Goldwyn Films will release the Kraken in select theaters and on digital June 12.
Here’s the synopsis: “A marine biologist encounters several strange occurrences while researching a fjord, including the brutal deaths of two local teenagers. At the bottom of Norway’s deepest fjord rests a mythical monster as large as a mountain, with a myriad of arms ready to crush and devour anything they can grab.”
Pål Øie (The Tunnel) directs from a script by Vilde Eide, Kjersti Jelen Rasmussen, and Natasha Arthur.
Sara Khorami (Troll 2), Mikkel Bratt Silset, Øyvind Brandtzæg, Jenny Evensen, Ingvild Holthe Bygdnes, Jon Erik Myre, Hans Morten Hansen, Steinar Klouman Hallert, and Filip Bargee Ramberg star.
The behemoth beast from the deep is the latest kaiju-sized aquatic creature harboring a horde of bloodthirsty parasites, joining the likes of Cloverfield and Underwater. Naturally, the Kraken itself serves as the much bigger threat.
It’s also about time that the Kraken received its own feature; though Meg 2: The Trench featured a Kraken-like beast in its climax, the Kraken hasn’t been fully unleashed since Clash of the Titans.
Watch out for the Kraken in limited theaters and on VOD this Friday.
